A Donald Trump victory in the presidential election would have huge implications for US trade policy, climate change, the war in Ukraine, electric vehicles, American taxes and illegal immigration.

Although some of his proposals would require congressional approval, here is a summary of the policies he said he would pursue during his second four-year term:

MORE PRICES

Trump has floated the idea of ​​a tariff of 10% or more on all goods imported into the United States, a measure he said would eliminate the trade deficit. But critics say it would lead to higher prices for U.S. consumers and global economic instability.

He also said he should have the authority to impose higher tariffs on countries that have imposed tariffs on U.S. imports. He threatened to impose 200% tariffs on certain imported cars, saying he was determined to prevent cars from Mexico from entering the country.

But he also suggested that allies such as the European Union could see higher tariffs on their products.

Trump particularly targeted China. It proposes phasing out Chinese imports of goods such as electronics, steel and pharmaceuticals over four years. It seeks to ban Chinese companies from owning U.S. real estate and infrastructure in the energy and technology sectors.

Trump has said “tariffs” is his favorite word and sees them as revenue generators that could help fill government coffers.

MASS DEPORTATIONS

Trump has pledged to reinstate his first-term policies targeting illegal border crossings and move forward with sweeping new restrictions.

He has pledged to limit access to asylum at the U.S.-Mexico border and embark on the largest deportation effort in American history, which would likely trigger legal challenges and opposition from Democrats in Congress.

He said he would employ the National Guard, and, if necessary, federal troops, to achieve his goal, and he did not rule out the creation of internment camps to process people for deportation.

Trump said he would seek to end automatic citizenship for children born to immigrants, a move that would run counter to the long-standing interpretation of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

He also suggested revoking the protected legal status of certain populations such as Haitians or Venezuelans.

Trump announced he would reinstate the so-called “travel ban” that restricts entry into the United States to people from a list of majority-Muslim countries, which sparked multiple legal battles during his first mandate.

DRILLING

Trump has pledged to increase U.S. fossil fuel production by easing the process for permitting drilling on federal lands and to encourage the construction of new natural gas pipelines. He said he would again allow oil drilling in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge.

It remains to be seen whether the oil industry moves forward and increases production at a time when oil and gas prices are relatively low.

He said he would again withdraw the United States from the Paris Climate Accords, a framework to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions, and support increased nuclear power production.

It would also roll back Democratic President Joe Biden’s mandates for electric vehicles and other policies aimed at reducing auto emissions.

He argued that the United States must be able to increase its energy production to be competitive in developing artificial intelligence systems, which consume large amounts of energy.

TAX RELIEF

Along with his trade and energy programs, Trump has promised to roll back federal regulations that he says limit job creation. He pledged to keep in place a broad tax cut for 2017 that he signed while in office, and his economic team discussed a new round of tax cuts for individuals and businesses beyond those adopted during his first term.

Trump has pledged to cut the corporate tax rate from 21% to 15% for companies that manufacture their products in the United States.

He said he would seek to pass legislation to end the taxation of tips and overtime to help servers and other service workers. He has pledged not to tax or cut Social Security benefits.

Trump also said that as president he would pressure the Federal Reserve to lower interest rates, but would not demand it.

Most, if not all, of his tax proposals would require congressional action. Budget analysts have warned that the slew of tax cuts will balloon the federal debt.

REMOVE DIVERSITY PROGRAMS

Trump has vowed to require American colleges and universities to “defend American tradition and Western civilization” and to purge them of their diversity programs. He said he would direct the Justice Department to pursue civil rights lawsuits against schools that engage in racial discrimination.

In elementary and secondary schools, Trump would support programs that allow parents to use public funds for private or religious education.

Trump also wants to abolish the federal Department of Education and give states control of schools.

NO FEDERAL BAN ON ABORTION

Trump appointed three justices to the United States Supreme Court who were part of the majority that struck down the constitutional protection of abortion provided by Roe v. Wade. He would likely continue to appoint federal judges who would respect abortion limits.

At the same time, he said a federal ban on abortion was not necessary and that the problem should be resolved at the state level. He argued that a six-week ban favored by some Republicans is too harsh and that any legislation should include exceptions for rape, incest and maternal health.

Trump suggested he would not seek to limit access to the abortion drug mifepristone after the U.S. Supreme Court rejected a challenge to the government’s approach to regulation.

He supports policies that advance in vitro fertilization (IVF), birth control, and prenatal care.

A PUSH TO END WARS

Trump criticized US support for Ukraine in its war against Russia and said he could end the war within 24 hours if elected – although he did not specify how he would do so. would succeed. He suggested that Ukraine might have to cede some of its territory if a peace deal was to be reached, an idea that Ukraine has always rejected.

Trump also said that under his presidency, the United States would fundamentally rethink “the purpose and mission of NATO.”

He supported Israel in its fight against Hamas in Gaza, but urged it to end its offensive. Trump can be expected to continue the Biden administration’s policy of arming Israel. At the same time, he is likely to push for a historic normalization of relations between Israel and Saudi Arabia, an effort he made during his 2017-2021 presidency and which Biden has also continued.

Trump said that if he became president, he would “end the suffering and destruction in Lebanon,” but did not specify how he would do that.

He suggested building an “iron dome” – a massive missile shield similar to Israel’s – across the entire continental United States.

Trump also considered sending armed forces to Mexico to combat drug cartels and using the U.S. Navy to establish a blockade of that country to stop the smuggling of fentanyl and its precursors.

INVESTIGATE ENEMIES, HELP ALLIES

Trump has at times vowed to use federal law enforcement to investigate his political enemies, including election officials, lawyers and party donors.

Along the same lines, Trump said he would consider appointing a special prosecutor to investigate Biden, although he did not specify the grounds for such an investigation.

And he said he would consider firing a U.S. attorney who did not follow his directives — which would be a break with long-standing U.S. policy of an independent federal law enforcement apparatus.

Trump said he would consider pardoning everyone who was convicted of crimes related to the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

In addition to criminal investigations, he suggested using the government’s regulatory powers to punish those it views as critics, such as television networks.

PURGING THE FEDERAL BUREAUCRACY

Trump is reportedly seeking to decimate what he calls the “deep state” — career federal employees who he says are clandestinely pursuing their own agendas — through an executive order that would reclassify thousands of workers to allow them to be dismissed. This would likely be challenged in court.

He would establish an independent Committee on Government Efficiency, led by billionaire supporter Elon Musk, to eliminate waste in the federal government. He did not detail how the body would function. The government already has oversight agencies such as the Office of Management and Budget and investigators general for federal agencies.

Trump would crack down on federal whistleblowers, who are generally protected by law, and establish an independent agency to “monitor” U.S. intelligence agencies.
