Bold Reforms on Day One

President-elect Donald Trump outlined an ambitious agenda aimed at restoring full prosperity on his first day in office. He plans to initiate a series of executive orders to reinstate policies from his first term, including a massive deportation program targeting criminal illegal immigrants and strict border control measures. Trump emphasized a focus on immediate executive actions, such as reinstating 'Remain in Mexico' and abolishing 'catch and release' practices, asserting that these will secure the U.S. southern border. This swift implementation of policies is designed to contrast with the previous administration's strategies, which Trump believes failed to address the issues adequately.
