We all know about building the wall but what else has the next president of the United States promised to do?
Here’s just some of what Donald Trump has pledged throughout the campaign:
Immigration
- Ban all Muslims from entering the United States, although he said he would make an exception for London’s new Muslim mayor, Sadiq Khan
- Immediately suspend immigration from “any nation that has been compromised by terrorism” until proven vetting mechanisms have been put in place
- Build a wall along the US-Mexico border and make Mexico pay for it
- Stop illegal immigration
- Triple the number of Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers
- Deport an estimated 11 million unauthorised Mexican immigrants and their children — even if they were born in the United States — starting with those who have committed serious crimes
In my speech on protecting America I spoke about a temporary ban, which includes suspending immigration from nations tied to Islamic terror.

Trade
- Withdraw from the Trans-Pacific Partnership
- Renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement and “walk away” from it if the US does not get what it wants
- Increase tariffs on Chinese imports to 45 per cent
I will renegotiate NAFTA. If I can’t make a great deal, we’re going to tear it up. We’re going to get this economy running again. #Debate
