Trump’s 2024 presidential campaign is characterized by a series of sweeping policy goals that are divergent from those of President Joe Biden. Should he win a second term, Trump plans to substantially overhaul the government, and while many of his ideas may be challenged in court or by Congress, he has been assembling detailed policy books.
Trump’s plans include dismantling the ‘deep state’ by stripping tens of thousands of career employees of their civil service protections, imposing a domestic deportation operation, and targeting people living in the United States who harbor ‘jihadist sympathies’. Additionally, he plans to implement a system of tariffs on foreign goods and phase out Chinese imports of essential goods. In the foreign policy realm, Trump aims to settle the war between Russia and Ukraine, and support Israel’s war with Hamas.
Other aspects of Trump’s agenda include implementing strict policies related to transgender rights, a focus on lowering energy and electricity costs, exerting control over local school districts and colleges, addressing homelessness through the construction of tent cities, and utilizing controversial policing measures to address public safety concerns.
