Deportation of undocumented immigrants, cutbacks in climate regulation and changes in the economy and taxes. Seven things Trump is going to do as president
  • Four years later, Trumpism returns to the White House and Donald Trump becomes the 47th President of the United States at 78. Trump will also become the first U.S. president convicted of several crimes and facing several outstanding causes. In his triumphant speech, the Republican promised “to govern under a slogan: promises made, promises fulfilled.” Here's the compilation of the seven points Trump is supposed to make as president of the BBC News.

During the election campaign, the Republican vowed the largest mass deportations of undocumented immigrants in U.S. history. Thus, several experts have warned the BBC that the mass deportations promised by Trump can lead to numerous legal and logistical problems, as well as a stagnation in the country’s economic growth.

Paradoxically, the country’s new president, who has the free market as a flag, has announced that he is going to put his hand in the economy. "It's going to end inflation," and it's going to make radical cuts to the tax system, he added. The tip leaves tax free, removes tax on social security payments and seeks to cut corporate tax. It proposes new tariffs on most foreign products with the aim of reducing the trade deficit by at least 10%. The Chinese Government has warned that imports from China may suffer up to 60% additional duties. Faced with this, many economists have warned that prices for citizenship in general will rise significantly.

As he did in his previous presidency, Trump has also announced cuts in climate regulations and politics. It should be noted that in the 2016-2020 period, the United States was the first country to emerge from the Paris climate agreement in which many measures against climate change were rejected. Furthermore, it has strongly criticised electric cars and ensured that Biden is going to put an end to the targets that were set for promoting the least polluting cars. On the other hand, in the hope that energy costs will be reduced, it intends to use areas such as the Arctic to extract oil.

Trump has also referred to the conflict between Ukraine and Russia and announced that it will end in "24 hours" through a negotiated agreement with the Russian guerrilla. However, it has not specified what each party should give up. Democrats say that the measures that the White House would take would stimulate President Vladimir Putin. In general, the Republican Party wants the United States to disassociate itself from the conflicts outside it. As for the war in Gaza, Trump has shown himself to be a great defender of Israel, but he has asked the American ally to end the military offensive. It has also committed itself to putting an end to what is happening in Lebanon, but it has not given more details about what is happening.

In 2022, the Supreme Court annulled the constitutional right to abortion across the country, as conservative judges constituted the majority after Trump’s first mandate. In the presidential debate with Kamala Harris, the president of the Generalitat said that now, against the wishes of his followers, he will not sign a law to ban abortion. Despite the cost of conveying a consistent message of clarity, Trump has said that every U.S. state should decide on abortion laws.

Trump has announced that he will pardon some of the "oppressors" who assaulted the Capitol on January 6, 2021. On that day, several deaths from violence were recorded and Trump is attributed to the unrest that has occurred during the day. The president has described the hundreds of convicted conspirators in the country as "political prisoners" and has stated that many of them are "unjustly imprisoned," although he has acknowledged that "some of them, probably, had come out of control."

Trump has promised that as soon as he receives the presidency, "in less than two seconds" he will dismiss attorney Jack Smith, a veteran prosecutor who is conducting two criminal investigations against him under the Anti-Corruption Convention. Smith has charged Trump for alleged attempts to nullify the 2020 presidential elections and for the misuse of classified documents. According to the Republican, Smith has put him in a "political witch hunt."
