Watching presidential campaign convention series in the United States after the dramatic U.S. President Joe Biden¡¯s official speaking to the world from the Oval Office of the White House on Wednesday, July 24 to bow out of his 2024 presidential race for America¡¯s neck and neck choice as a matter of saving democracy and shifting the generation younger, it is amusing to read two five-digit numbers have appeared from the right-wing Grand Old Party (GOP, R) with a three-star elephant and also from the left-wing Democratic Party (D) showing a four star donkey: ¡°Text Trump to 88022¡± and ¡°Harris United 30330.¡±
At former President Donald Trump (R) rallies and conferences, he wanted a channel for his direct communications with voters. Voters can use 88022 in the phone number and send text messages following his slogan to ¡®make America great again (MAGA).¡¯ It happens to be a ZIP code in one zone where Silver City is situated in New Mexico. In contrast, Joe Biden (D) has transferred his text message number 30330 to incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris (D) to support her campaign on key voters: women, youth, people of color and abortion righters. It is derived from ¡°3.0330=2020 divided by 666.¡± By chance, it is a ZIP code in France where Cavillagues is located.
Despite the divisive factor on the assassination attempt of Trump on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania, the attempt to overturn his 2020 defeat to Joe Biden led to the deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, could curtail his advantage of dramatic lifedeath revised moments with a bandage on his right ear. The formal announcement of Harris¡¯ running mate as vice president from the Democratic Party can feasibly be an important variable: the GOP candidate J. D. Vance (88022) vs. his counterpart, (possibly Tim Walz. Minnesota¡¯s Governor) from well-qualified white-men (30330). National polls showed Trump narrowly ahead of Harris at the beginning, but the vast majority were hypothetical matchups taken before Biden¡¯s withdrawal from the race. Nationwide polls gauge American voters support for politicians.
However, U.S. presidency is unusually captured in competitive states as Arizona, Michigan and Pennsylvania that shift the balance in the U.S. electrical college. U.S. international policy would retain the similar guidelines and directions irrespective of opting for 88022 or 30330 after all, upon the outcome of the presidential race: chronic confrontation with China, efforts to induce ceasefire of both the Russian War on Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas Conflict, strategies against North Korea¡¯s provocation of nuclear-weapon assaults, and the alliance of oceanic nations against any feasible aggressive threats committed by continental powers.
Whether 88022 is chosen or 30330 is endorsed by a majority of American voters at hand, there would not appear much differences in the posture of the safeguard and security on the part of the Korean Peninsula, as far as the 1953 mutual defense treaty concluded by U.S.-ROK forged in blood during Korea¡¯s founding President Syngman Rhee era is still in effect, and it has been reenforced and ungraded up until the present time with the elapse of 71 years. Let¡¯s wait and see the U.S. presidential election outcome to be shown within 90 days for the sake of multinational cooperation and coordination for all mankind on the global village. Time will tell until and beyond the election day slated on November 5 this year.
