What Is a Last Lesson of US President Donald Trump?

Today, the 20th January 2021, US President Donald Trump is leaving office after four years in office.

The Trump Administration has been criticised for causing the division of American society.

In particular, Trump's "America First" policy, which he adopted during his presidential campaign, has been criticised for leading to the international isolation of the United States.

However, Mr. Trump's policy, which can be seen as an abandonment of US hegemony, is a sharpened policy of pluralisation of the international order approved in the second half of the Obama Administration, and was not his original policy.

The "America First" policy is available even in the Nixon Administration.

Of course, the merits and demerits of the Trump Administration will be examined more than ever by experts in various fields.

Nevertheless, it should be important to note that President Trump did not appear mutationally, but as a radicalisation of the way US politics has been conducted in the past.

Such viewpoint is the last lesson of President Trump.
