The oath ceremony of Donald Trump is one of the most major historical moments in the history of the United States of America. This is mainly because the ceremony marks the first time in American history where a person got elected as the President for the second time despite losing initially. The President has made some promises that he aims to fulfill during his term in office. Let us show you what those promises are and what they mean regarding the future of the USA and the rest of the world.
Promises Made By Donald Trump
The major promises made by Donald Trump during his oath ceremony are as follows:-
1. Preventing Illegal Immigration
Donald Trump has decided to prevent illegal immigration which has been happening for the last couple of years. Mr. Trump has decided to launch a program that will aim towards screening and scrutinizing the documents of foreigners who might have entered the USA illegally. The program will put special focus on Mexican and Muslim immigrants. The main purpose is to prevent crimes committed by illegal immigrants and also to take action against Islamic terrorism.
2. Preventing Illegal and Harmful Medical Operations and Drugs
Mr. Trump has vowed to stop illegal abortion operations without actually putting a ban on medical practice. The American President plans to put a ban on drugs that have been proven to be lethal for women’s health which of course includes birth control pills. The main goal here is to ensure that all American citizens enjoy good health and well-being.
3. Changing Taxation Practices
The American President has decided to put more taxes on corporations and company owners or CEOs. And in the case of the middle class or blue collar workers, Mr. Trump has decided to increase all of their wages and introduce more compensation to cover up the money that gets deducted as tax. This can be helpful for most common Americans to enjoy more income while the government itself will get more taxes.
4. Increasing Tariff On International Trade
Mr. Trump’s next promise however, may or may not be favorable for foreign corporations who have business ties with the USA. This is because the American President has promised to introduce 10 to 20 percent tariff taxes on anything that comes from foreign countries into the USA. This however, will encourage local businesses to get more customers since very few foreign companies might agree to this decision.
5. Changing Regulations Towards The LGBTQ Community and Diveristy
Another rather controversial promise by Donald Trump is the changes that he plans to make regarding laws towards ensuring diversity and opportunities for the LGBTQ community. The President has vowed to stop all diversity and inclusion programs in every field. He stated that people should not be given opportunities just because of their ethnicity or sexuality. In fact, he also promises to end instances of trans men or women competing with biological men and women in sports. This might get some negative response from the LGBTQ community.
6. Reducing Power of Federal Bureaucrats
Mr. Trump has promised to reduce the power of most federal bureaucrats when it comes to supporting any kind of bill or decision. In fact, he wants to increase his own power as a President over other ministers and parliament members. The President aims to do this in order to remove certain regulations supported by most ministers that aim towards environmental conservation. He wants to do this in order to enable more production of fossil fuels and approve of major construction projects.
7. Changes In Education Curriculum
Donald Trump has promised most American parents that their children will not be taught questionable things in school. The questionable things in this case include certain curriculum regarding one’s gender and sexual identity which are allegedly being taught to children in the USA. Mr. Trump has promised to make education more child-friendly again and stop any kind of brainwashing done by certain opposing parties.
8. Enhancing Healthcare
Mr. Trump has said that he will soon improve healthcare in the USA. However, he did not fully reveal as to how he is going to do that. According to most sources, he aims to make healthcare more affordable especially for children and old people. The President also aims to put Robert F. Kennedy in charge of looking over health care acts and practices to prevent harmful medicines or questionable healthcare insurance practices.
9. Increasing Military Strength
The American President has vowed to enhance the USA’s military strength. This decision comes mainly after the Russia-Ukraine and Israel-Palestine wars worsened. On the other hand, Iran is also stating that the US should fear it due to its new nuclear arsenal. So in response, the President has decided to increase military and weapon strength in order to help countries like Ukraine and end all the lingering wars.
10. Expansion of the USA’s Territories
The President has decided to increase the USA’s territories. This includes decisions such as taking back the Panama canal and areas close to it as a part of this country. There are rumors that Trump might also want Canada or at least some portions of it to join the US as well. However, he has not elaborated much on it.
11. More Fossil Fuel Production
Lastly, Donald Trump has decided to enable the USA to produce more fossil fuels by drilling in places like Alaska and the Middle East. The main plan here is to help American oil companies produce better products and help other industries like the automobile and electricity sectors to function well. This however, has been criticized by many as a decision that is not favorable for maintaining a clean climate and stopping global warming.
Concluding Statement
The promises made by Donald Trump focus more on making Americans happy. However, people who are not white or black local Americans or of American origins, might not be benefitted by these promises. This is mainly because the promise to not let foreigners become citizens here might lead to cancellation of visas and appeals for American citizenship.
In fact, many American Universities might not let Indian students or those from other countries to study and make a career here out of fear of persecution from the government. The focus on importing more oil will only cause global warming to get worse. However, only time will tell if these decisions will be executed properly and what their results will be like.
