The promises made by Donald Trump are seen as bold. Analysts believe, however, that few details currently exist regarding their implementation.
“It is now clear that we have accomplished the most incredible political thing – look what happened. It’s crazy, isn’t it? “, said the President-elect of the United States.
Border security remains a top priority for the president-elect. Donald Trump has declared that he will begin the largest operation to deport criminals from abroad in American history. He also called for the death penalty for any migrant who kills a U.S. citizen or law enforcement officer.
On the evening of his election, Mr. Trump delivered a victory speech in which he reiterated his plan for the next four years. The tone was described as less harsh.
“We’re going to have to close these borders and we’re going to have to let people into our country. We want people to come back. But we have to do it, we have to let them come back, but they have to come in legally. They must enter legally,” he said.
“…we are going to lead the greatest economic comeback in American history”
Vice President-elect JD Vance addressed another important point on Mr. Trump’s agenda.
“And after the greatest political comeback in American history, we are going to lead the greatest economic comeback in American history,” a dit JD Vance.
“We will pay off the debt. We are going to cut taxes,” said Donald Trump.
For some, it is less clear how the new administration will achieve its economic goals without worsening an already growing deficit.
But the president-elect mentioned one figure who could help: tech mogul Elon Musk, who Mr. Trump said would lead a “government efficiency commission” to stem tax waste and fraud.
Mr. Trump commented on the recent launch of Elon Musk’s Starship rocket: “And it was a beautiful thing to see.” I called Elon. I said to him, “Elon, was that you?” » He replied: “Yes, it was me.” » I said, “Who else can do this?” Can Russia do this? ” ” No. » “Can China do this? ” ” No. » “Can the United States do this, besides you?” » “No, no one can do that. I said, “That’s why I love you, Elon.” »
Observers say Mr. Trump’s praise of Elon Musk is intended to project his strength and power on the world stage.
“This question of whether we are the only country capable of doing this. Oh, yes. We are the only country capable of doing this. And I think Trump is able to use this image of Musk not only as a technology entrepreneur, but also as a visionary, as a genius, to support this idea that he’s putting forward not as an individual, but as a that nation”, comments Stephanie Alice Baker, from the sociology department of City, University of London.
In his speech, Mr. Trump shared his guiding principle for his new term: “I will govern according to a simple motto: “promises made, promises kept”. We will keep our promises. »
One of those promises is what the president-elect describes as America’s “golden age.”
