Foreign Policy: Ending Wars and Redefining Alliances
Trump reiterated his campaign promise to swiftly end America’s involvement in both the war in Ukraine and the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. While offering no specifics,he emphasized that he had spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu,making it clear that ending the conflict before his inauguration was a priority. “He knows,” Trump stated, adding he trusts no one, not even Netanyahu. On Iran, Trump was more guarded, declaring “everything is absolutely possible and the situation is fluid.” He did offer some reassurance to Ukraine,stating,”I want to reach an agreement. This war should never have started. Putin would not have invaded Ukraine if I had been president,” but his commitment to continued support remains unclear.Domestic Issues: Immigration Reform and the Vaccine Debate
Trump made it clear that immigration reform will be a top priority. He reaffirmed his intention to use the military to stop and deport illegal immigrants, stating, “I will only do what the law allows, but I will push the limits to the maximum.” Another contentious issue is vaccines, particularly those for children. The appointment of Robert F. Kennedy jr., a vocal anti-vaccine advocate, as head of the Department of health and Human Services has sparked controversy. Trump acknowledged that there will be “a big discussion with Bobby” regarding vaccines. He stated, ”We’ll talk about it. The rate of autism is at a level no one ever thought possible. there is something that causes it,” repeating a claim not supported by scientific evidence.January 6th and Pardons: A Promise of Clemency
Trump reasserted his intention to pardon the individuals convicted for their role in the January 6th attack on the Capitol. He stated that he would begin considering pardons “in the first six minutes” of his presidency,evaluating each case individually,but did not confirm whether he would pardon those convicted of violence. This stands in stark contrast to President Biden’s proclamation of a record number of clemencies: the commutation of sentences for 1,500 individuals. Biden stated, “America was built on second chances.”international Embrace and Breaking with Tradition
Trump’s return to power has attracted attention from world leaders. Tech giants like Jeff Bezos and Mark Zuckerberg, who donated a million dollars to Trump’s inauguration, are seeking meetings with the incoming President.Trump has also been warmly received by Wall Street. In a surprising move, both Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Chinese President xi Jinping have been invited to attend Trump’s inauguration ceremony. While it’s unclear who will ultimately attend, this marks a break from tradition as foreign leaders have never attended a US presidential inauguration before.**Q:** Mr. President, time Magazine has named you Person of the Year for a second time.
