On July 17, 2024, former President Trump narrowly escaped an assassination attempt during a rally in Pennsylvania when a bullet grazed his right ear, sending shockwaves globally as he triumphantly declared, "Fight, fight," amidst his security detail. As the U.S. approaches its presidential election in November, opinions are divided on whether Trump’s resurgence signifies a shift towards the mainstream right-wing conservatism that he embodies. Meanwhile, Taiwan's government, led by Lai Ching-te, must strategize on how to engage with Trump should he be elected again, assessing past interactions with his administration to optimize future negotiations. Trump’s business-like approach to governance raises questions on what tangible benefits Taiwan can offer the U.S., challenging conventional ideals of democracy and alliance.
