In the United States, Donald Trump is the star guest at CPAC, the major annual conference of American conservatives.

The former president spoke at the closing of the event in Dallas.

A river speech, repeating once again that the 2020 election was stolen from him, that the Biden administration is destroying the United States and that we must fight the radicals on the left.

Steven Ekovich, historian and professor of political science at the American University of Paris, analyzes the situation for RFI.
