Has Trump kept his day one promises?

BBC News, Washington and London

Donald Trump made many promises while running for the presidency. He pledged to reduce taxes, reduce prices, underestimate deportation, increase revenues and strengthen the American industry with new tariffs and end wars.
Some of his proposals were detailed by his policy team or Trump himself, in “47 Business Schedule” videos on his internet campaign. It seems to others out of the cuff-a producer of Trump’s style “Think loudly” and openness to adopting the ideas that others suggested to him.
In the victory speech on November 6, he explained that he intends to preserve the promises that brought him back to the White House: “I will judge a simple slogan: the promises that were made,” he explained that he intends to preserve the promises that brought him back to the White House.
He has become a slogan of his first month in his position, which was characterized by a snowstorm of activity and remarkable progress in achieving some of its goals.
In areas such as migration and foreign policy, Trump has a wide power to work unilaterally – it has done so. In other areas, he faced legal challenges and political obstacles. It will require many other promises that he ultimately made action from Congress, under narrow republican control, to become permanent.
Here is a look at some of Trump’s largest covenants on the first day and his efforts to turn it into a reality.
Lower
What he said:
“When I win, I will reduce prices immediately, starting from the first day.” The press conference, August 2024
What he did:
Perhaps this is the biggest challenge, given the number of times the inflation has the list of voters’ priorities during the election campaign. In his opening speech, Trump promised “the enthusiasm of the vast powers” from his government to reduce costs and prices quickly, but it is not clear how. There is one way, he says, is to increase the pits to reduce energy costs.
The rise in prices increased in January, which is the largest monthly increase for 16 months, in the complexity of the Trump mission. He blamed Joe Biden, who left his position on January 20, and democratic spending. “I had nothing to do with it,” Trump said.
However, at other times, he admitted that it is difficult for our presidents to control prices. But economists warn that some of its policies may nourish inflation and the voting indicates that voters want to see him doing more.
Collective deportation
What he said:
“On the first day, I will launch the largest deportation program in American history to remove criminals.” November 4, 2024
What he did:
Migration may have been the main focus of Trump since he took power, with more than ten executive orders aimed at reforming the system. Its plan to illegally deport foreign citizens appears to be legal, from those convicted of crimes, they have widespread general support.
But it is not certain whether he is a sword with his promise to deport a lot. Some of the raids have topped the headlines, but it does not seem that the number of people are removed from records, according to the daily characters.
In the first month of office, the United States deported 37,660 people – less than the monthly average of 57,000 remnants and return in the last full year of the Joe Biden administration, the data obtained by Reuters.
A spokesman for the Ministry of National Security told the agency that the number of deportation of the Baiden era was higher because illegal immigration was higher. The country’s border confrontation decreased by 66 % in January compared to 2024, according to the White House.
January 6 amnesty
What he said:
“I will look at the J6 early, and perhaps the first nine minutes.” Time Magazine, December 2024
What he did:
According to his speech, hours after taking the presidential oath, Trump released the pardon and mobility that paved the way to launch more than 1500 people who were convicted or accused of the American Capitol riot. A police officer was beaten on that day, BBC, told the pardon “a slap in the face.”
Ending the war of Ukraine
What he said:
“They die, the Russians and the Ukrainians. I want them to stop death. I will do it – I will do it within 24 hours.” CNN City Hall, 2023
What he did:
Trump has started the first talks between the United States and Russia since the beginning of the war, but Ukraine has pledged to reject any deal that excelled, and there was an angry exchange between the leaders. President Voludmir Zelinski fears that the US president will provide his campaign to end the war, but on the terms of Moscow and without security guarantees. There is also anxiety in the European capitals that are marginalized, and that Trump may dismantle some sanctions imposed on Russia as a penalty for the invasion.
Finishing continuous citizenship
What he said:
Trump told NBC in December that he was “absolutely” planning to end the citizenship born on the first day: “If someone puts a foot from my feet … on our land, congratulations. You are now a citizen in the United States of America. Yes, we are “Re -end.”
What he did:
In one of his first chairmanship, Trump ordered the end of the automatic right to the American citizenship that anyone who is born on the land of the United States is currently received. Co -citizenship is not the base all over the world, and Trump’s move is targeted by those who illegally in the United States or with temporary visas.
The opponents say that the plan is interfering with the right that was established by an amendment to the US constitution about 160 years ago. The case can go to the Supreme Court – the highest in America – after the Court of Appeal against Trump ruled and supported a legal bloc on his plan.
A comprehensive tariff for Canada and Mexico
What he said:
“On January 20, as one of the many executive orders, I will sign all the documents needed to ship Mexico and Canada 25 % on all products coming to the United States, and its funny open borders.” November 25
What he did:
Trump announced on January 21 that he would impose a blanket tariff on his neighbors on February 1, and linked them to the flow of drugs and migrants to the United States. The president has long saw definitions, a tax tax, as a way to protect the local industry and increase revenues. Canada and Mexico said they will be in retaliatory taxes on American imports. But Trump was late in the start of the customs tariff for one month, after promises from both countries to increase the implementation of the borders. There were also fluctuations in the market and warnings from economic experts that these measures may cause high prices.
