Donald Trump's Agenda for 2025
Donald Trump's return to office in 2025 is expected to reshape U.S. domestic and foreign policies significantly. His administration is likely to prioritize restrictive immigration policies, focusing on undocumented migration and economic nationalism through tariffs. Trump has appointed key figures who share his conservative populism, indicating a potential revival of policies like family separation and aggressive tariff implementation against competitors such as China. This cabinet reshaping aims to reinforce his campaign promises, suggesting a move towards a controversial and potentially confrontational governance style from the outset.
