Thus, according to Pew, in 1971, the middle class represented 61% of the population (about 80 million inhabitants) while today it would not reach the 50% mark (49.9%) due to the crisis of the subprime, bursting of the real estate bubble and subsequent stock market crash of 2008.

It should be noted that among the "losers of the crisis", in addition to African Americans and Latinos, there appear for the first time young university students in debt and white adults over 45 without university studies and with low value-added jobs who, after being enrolled in the ranks of unemployment , they would have ended up plunged into an explosive cycle of depression, alcoholism, drug addiction and suicide after seeing the blackbird of the "American dream" vanish, which would have had as a collateral effect the disaffection of said segments of the white population with respect to the traditional establishment and their enrollment in Far-right parties and the number of white losers could increase after the US economy entered a recession in 2022 due to the overheating of the economy, runaway inflation and the worsening of the health pandemic.

If confirmed, it will mark a historical milestone as it will represent the end of the sui generis formal American democracy and the beginning of an Orwellian form of government that will draw from the sources of the paternalism of soft dictatorships and will be characterized by the cult of the leader, the use of disinformation and Orwellian surveillance of the non-white population and the strict control of political dissent, in short an autocratic government or a kind of invisible dictatorship supported by solid cohesion strategies (mass manipulation and cult of the leader), elements that converged in the Trump presidency after engulfing the Republican Party.

Trump's electoral strategy will be based on the technique of manipulation of the masses exposed by Edward L. Bernays in his book "Crystallizing Public Opinion", in which he unravels the brain mechanisms of the group and the influence of propaganda as a method for unify your thinking. Thus, according to L. Bernays, “the mind of the group does not think, in the strict sense of the word. Instead of thoughts it has impulses, habits and emotions. When deciding, his first impulse is usually to follow the example of a leader he trusts ”. Thus, his propaganda will be directed not to the individual subject but to the Group in which the personality of the one-dimensional individual is diluted and is wrapped in fragments of false expectations created and common longings that sustain it (return of the White Power) for which he will use the points essentials of the populist ideology: short and xenophobic messages on social networks, cult of the leader and the use of fake news to plunge the population into existential doubt.
