    Midterms: America Judges Trump

    After eighty years of shared security, who will still trust Washington?One week before the vote, the midterms have become a referendum on one man, who is not on the ballot and whose excesses are no longer funny. His name appears on no ballot, yet Donald Trump is the only subject of the campaign. He tells his supporters at every rally: vote as if I were a candidate. Le Figaro calls the election a referendum on the president this Monday, and its Washington correspondent, Adrien Jaulmes, describes a vote dominated by the personality of a man who has divided America for ten years.The numbers are stark. The latest Reuters/Ipsos poll gives him only 31% approval, a low reached at no point in either of his two terms. Democrats lead Republicans by twelve points in the congressional ballot (47% to 35%) [02]. The models give Democrats about a 93% chance of retaking the House, and Kalshi bettors put it at 90% for the House and 63% for the Senate [03]. Le Figaro notes that states once out of reach are now in play: Kansas, which has not elected a Democratic senator since 1932, and Ken Paxton’s Texas.Christine Ockrent, before a packed hall, judged a few days ago that the trust between Europe and the United States was broken for a long time. One can follow her without rejoicing. Since 1945 Europe has lived under an umbrella whose price it never really measured, and the Starlink affair shows what it means to depend on one man and one network. What American voters say on 3 November will not bring trust back at a stroke. Even a Democratic Congress can hardly stop Trump from running foreign policy. The test for Europeans begins on 4 November: to know at last what they expect of themselves, before asking what they expect of America.
