At the end of a breathtaking presidential campaign, Donald Trump managed to win over his Democratic opponent Kamala Harris. The representative of the “Great Old Party” in the American presidential election signs his return to the White House, accompanied by his favorite themes.
He signs his comeback. Donald Trump succeeded in his bet to return to the White House this Wednesday, after months of electoral campaign and a vote which promised to be very close against former Vice-President Kamala Harris.
If through the media, influencers and their numerous trips, the candidates had multiplied their promises to voters, we return to the positions of Donald Trump through the main themes of this presidential election.
Abortion
At the origin of the repeal of the decision “Roe v. Wade”, granting the right to American women to have an abortion throughout the country, in 2022, Donald Trump indicated that he was not for a federal ban on abortion, leaving the choice to the different states.
The new president, who calls himself the “protector of women”, also considered that American states must decide whether or not they prosecute women who have had abortions despite restrictive laws.
Israeli-Palestinian conflict
Regularly reminding that there was no war during his presidential term and that October 7 would never have happened under his presidency, Donald Trump reiterated his support for Israel.
He was also firm on the issue of American support for Israel, indicating that the IDF should strike Iranian nuclear facilities in response to the missiles sent by Tehran to Israel in September.
Immigration
For Donald Trump, this is his favorite subject. The 47th President of the United States has promised to carry out numerous expulsions of migrants, “the largest operation” of its kind, on his first day in the Oval Office.
In addition to the cancellation of the automatic right of soil for children born to migrants who arrived in the United States in an irregular situation and the reinstatement of the very controversial presidential decree 13769, known as the “Muslim Ban”, Donald Trump plans to end the construction of the wall separating the United States and Mexico, undertaken during his first mandate.
Firearms
Like abortion, the gun issue completely divides America. Supported by the National Rifle Association (NRA), one of the largest American lobbies in favor of firearms and which continues to uphold the Second Amendment of the United States Constitution, Donald Trump is in favor of the port of firearms. weapons for all citizens, risking this type of outing, especially after the killing in a school in Uvalde, Texas, in 2022.
Economy
An economic program that relies heavily on lowering inflation. Aiming to “make America affordable again”, Donald Trump promises to increase customs duties, particularly for products from China to 60%.
With these measures and an elimination of the tax on tips, the Republican billionaire believes that a reduction in taxes is possible, while the reduction in inflation could benefit future buyers of real estate. Finally, Donald Trump, supported by Elon Musk during his campaign, also committed to making the country a leader in bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
Environment
A recognized climate skeptic, the Republican marked his first term on the ecological front by withdrawing from the Paris agreement and removing numerous environmental protection measures from Democratic administrations.
Assuring that a drop in energy prices is possible by drilling for oil in the four corners of the globe, Donald Trump also promised to reverse the decisions taken by the Biden administration on electric vehicles, despite his links with Tesla boss Elon Musk.
