Column, welcome to Chengwei International Observation.
On August 8, former US President Trump exposed his family scandal that the FBI raided his home, Mar-a-Lago, turned his bedroom upside down, and took a large number of documents, which was interpreted as the political persecution of Trump by the Democratic Party.
It's been more than 10 days since this incident, and now there are all kinds of news, the most serious of which is that Trump will soon usher in a criminal investigation, and he may even be sentenced to more than 30 years in prison for espionage. Of course, more people interpret that the Democratic Party wants to hinder Trump from running out of the election in 2024 in this way, so many people feel that the United States has been founded for more than 200 years, almost 250 years, and there has never been a single incident in history, and the former president has been charged with criminal investigation and criminal prosecution.
American politics has become more and more divided today, is the United States going to be Koreanized? Why is the United States Koreanized? Because South Korea has set a very bad precedent on this issue, we often joke that the former president of South Korea can be called the most dangerous profession on the planet, because none of the former presidents of South Korea have a good ending, either in exile or assassinated, or imprisoned.
Especially at some point last year, there was also a grand situation in which three former presidents squatted in a South Korean prison, and two of these three former presidents were personally sent in by the current president of South Korea, a Park Geun-hye and a Lee Myung-bak, so everyone believes that the political turmoil in South Korea is much more serious than in the United States. Will go to the criminal investigation of him.
Because everyone also understands when the unjust retribution is the truth, today the Democratic Party on the stage if you move the former president of the Republican Party, then one day when the Republican Party comes to power, is it possible to complain, but obviously the South Koreans have already done this at this point. So when Trump was investigated, many people pinched a handful of sweat for this former president of Moon Jae-in, and everyone said that moon jae-in is it possible to quickly follow in the footsteps of several other former presidents?
You should know that on the day of Moon Jae-in's departure, thousands of South Koreans went to the court to sue Moon Jae-in, saying that he had abuse of power, and shortly after mar-a-la-la was raided, the current South Korean government actually began to act on Moon Jae-in, and the current South Korean government has organized a huge investigation team, has begun to attack the people around Moon Jae-in, and seized a large number of documents from Moon's administration, and the problem now is that they accuse Moon Jae-in and may be guilty of abuse of power. Soon, a large number of investigations into Moon will be carried out one after another.
To be honest, Trump and Moon Jae-in are more or less wronged, what do you think the Democratic Party is accusing Trump of? It was he, as a former president, who took a large number of confidential documents back to his home, but of course, many people from all walks of life in the United States today interpreted that Trump did not necessarily mean that he wanted to sell this document as a spy to foreign organizations.
Many people interpret that Trump is a person who is particularly willing to show off with others, and the purpose of his taking these documents may be to show off to the people around him in the future, you see, such an important document was passed when I was in power, or when Trump wrote his memoirs in the future, these documents can be an important proof, such an inadvertent mistake led to his home raid today being investigated, and Moon Jae-in is even more so.
So far, the investigation of the relevant South Korean agencies has not found out whether Moon Jae-in has any corruption problems, but only that he may abuse his power in some major projects, to be honest, this is really not enough to hit the fatal, many people will question, why did Yoon Seok-yue hold these trivial things to attack Moon Jae-in? There is a reason to know that these two people were comrades in the same trench at that time.
Earlier we said that the two factions of South Korean politics are clearly distinguished, progressive and conservative, although Yoon Seok-wook is the South Korean president elected on behalf of the conservatives, but before he actually stood in the camp of Moon Jae-in, under the instructions of Moon Jae-in, Yoon Seok-yue served as the attorney general, thus having the opportunity to send the two former presidents to prison, but later the two people due to the discord of ideas, due to the issue of procuratorial reform, the two people had a major difference of opinion, and finally Yoon Seok-yue withdrew from Moon Jae-in's camp. And switched to the conservative camp.
But the problem is that Yin Xiyue is actually in the conservative camp, there is not much foundation, especially after he was elected president, a large number of conservative people asked him to pardon former President Lee Myung-bak, but Yin Xiyue did not do this, why? After the relevant public opinion survey in South Korea, more than 60% of the people believe that Lee Myung-bak should not be pardoned, so Yoon Seok-yue did not dare to move this idea, and on the other hand, Yoon Seok-yue's ruling foundation is very unstable, which is highlighted by the fact that to date, Yoon Seok-yue has been in power for 100 days, but his support rate is as low as a pitiful 30%.
Moon Jae-in's progressive faction did not support him, and a large number of conservatives who helped him choose out opposed him, which made many of Yoon Seok-yue's policies not very easy to implement, and the support of the people was getting lower and lower, so he was eager to do something to show his ability to govern, so it was a very good way to attack the former president.
To tell the truth, although Yin Xiyue has been a prosecutor for many years, he is still relatively immature in politics, he is not a traditional politician, and before he was promoted by Moon Jae-in, Yin Xiyue's career as a prosecutor has always been depressed.
However, after being hand-picked by Moon Jae-in, Yoon Seok-wook handled two major cases in a row, sending Park Geun-hye and Lee Myung-bak to prison respectively, which made him gain great prestige in the Korean people, similar to the figures of our ancient Bao Qingtian, so he gained enough political capital to come out and choose the President of South Korea.
So Yin Xiyue is now also calculating that my poll support is so low, and the progressives and conservatives are more difficult for me, so what to do? How I can prove my ability, there is a good way to prove, is to continue his prosecutorial nature to investigate former President Moon Jae-in, which will give the korean people an iron-faced and selfless impression. You see I was promoted by Moon Jae-in, and I was a comrade-in-arms in the same trench as him, but as a former president, he had problems and I still investigated.
If yoon Seok-wook can really find enough evidence to send Moon Jae-in in, then it is obvious that on the one hand, his political ability is demonstrated, on the other hand, both progressive and conservative parties also have to look up to him, and the support of the Korean people may increase, so it is true that Moon Jae-in has recently estimated that there will be great trouble, unless he is really clean enough, and he will not be caught by others. But on the other hand, if Moon Jae-in is in prison, will Yoon Seok-yue be safe after 5 years?
