Revisiting Trump’s 100-day plan and his pledge to the American voter. Has he kept his promises? President Donald Trump promised the American voters a “100-day action plan, which he stated would “Make America Great Again.”
During the final stretch of Trump’s campaign, a 100-day plan was introduced by then-candidate Donald Trump. The vow to the American voter, highlighted policies that Trump proposed and pursued through both legislative and executive action. Taking a walk back to the campaign trail, echoes of Trump, stating that he would “Make America Great Again,” would become his proverbial platform of hope, upon which he built his promises. Standing before a large crowd in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania on October 22, 2016, Trump told the crowd

His contention was that the plan was a ridiculous standard. Perhaps his objective in minimizing his own action plan, was to reduce the scrutiny and backlash because of the promises that he and his administration could not fully deliver. Trump stated in his interview with the Associated Press, “Somebody that he wasn’t aware of, put out the concept of a 100-day plan,” despite then-candidate Trump initially proposing the 100-day action plan. He further stated that the plan was not very meaningful, but rather, an artificial …show more content…
It is also the American sentiment and tradition to measure how well a new presidential administration is performing. With any administration, setbacks and victories will exist. Trump has been greeted with a number of highs and lows, specifically when faced with the harsh reality, with respect to repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act, which he adamantly refers to as “Obamacare.”
In an interview with Reuters on April 30, 2017, President Donald discussed his first 100 days in office, often reflecting upon his life before the White House. He was quoting as stating, “I loved my previous life. I had so many things going,” Trump told Reuters in an interview. “This is more work than in my previous life. I thought it would be easier.”
Trump’s persona doesn’t seem to have drastically changed from day one of entering the office, to the 100-day milestone. He brings to the office a business man, wheeler-dealer executive style, accustomed to calling his own shots. He is now faced with abiding by the Constitution, working with Congress, and building relationships with both sides of the aisle, to do what he has promised, and what he can ultimately
Donald Trump is focused primarily on helping Americans; he wants to ensure that Americans have jobs, wages, and security. In order to do so, Trump developed a “10 Point Plan to Put America First.” Trump wants to cease the mass immigration of Mexicans to America in search for work opportunities. If elected president, Trump wants to build a wall on the southern border of the United States, which will keep Mexicans out. Trump wants to make certain that any illegal immigrant is imprisoned and deported immediately. Trump does not tolerate any illegal immigrants in the United States and wants to make sure Americans are “put first.”
President Trump said he would repeal and replace the ACA “Affordable Care Act”. Additionally, President Trump has promised to reduce the $19.5 Trillion (and growing) debt by cutting spending on all non essential government agencies and add-on expenses that were senselessly added over the last administration. He also said he would convince companies to bring factories back to America, in essence “Make America Great Again”. These are just some of the many promises President Trump has made to the American people. But many of his promises will take a while to come in affect as his plan to alter the course of our country unfolds.
Trump’s campaign's slogan, “Make America Great Again”, comes from Reagan’s “Let’s Make America Great Again” campaign slogan during his 1980 presidential run. Reagan was, of course, talking about bouncing back from the many years of weakness and distrust the people of America had to endure under the Nixon and Carter administrations. Giving faith back to the American people from the government from Nixon’s corruption, and putting the strength back into our country’s name after Carter’s many years of downsizing our great military, were detrimental to that time. Now, that slogan means something much more and the American people and Mr. Trump
Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign has come at a time after having a president serve for two terms. Americans are eager for change. Donald Trump promises to be the change to fix the nation’s concerns about foreign affairs, and immigration
After addressing the nation and thanking the world, President Trump stated, “we, the citizens of America, are joined in a national effort to rebuild our country and restore its promise to all its people,” he continued, “we will face challenges and confront hardships, but we will get the job done (Trump).” The point was made very clear that President Trump’s primary objective was to give America back to the people of this great nation and beginning to put
For Slavery: The United States of America has the highest ranking economy in the world, but it wasn't always like this. Back in the 1800s, America did not have a great economy. However, the economy rose by 14-15% per year on average. It could be said that without slavery, America’s economy would be nearly as good as it is today. This is due to the fact that the U.S. was purchasing enslaved people from African countries for a price and more money was being passed around due to the legal purchase of enslaved people.
“Make America Great Again.” This is the quote that has been polarizing pundits and the electorate alike throughout this current 2015-16 Presidential Election Season. The man behind the quote, Donald J. Trump, is equally as polarizing in almost everything else he says. From banning Muslims until we can “figure out what is going on” to building a wall along the U.S-Mexican Border, Trump’s rhetoric has garnered praise, condemnation, and everything in between (Trump “Temporary Ban on Muslims”). What is the purpose behind all these dramatic decisions “The Donald” has advocated? What is the meaning behind “Make America Great Again?” The answer is that Donald Trump, in fact, wishes to revitalize the American Dream. Trump states that we have been led astray from the American Dream due Democratic Party and Washington failures. Through his policies of building a border wall, attacking Islamic extremism, and making economic deals for the American populace, the real-estate mogul will build a dream that is “bigger and better and stronger than ever” (Trump “Presidential Announcement Speech”).
Donald Trump could not meet the same political expectations that presidents before him had. Americans have elected experienced politicians from the beginning, and they have watched the world progressively get worse every election. The people of the United States were tired of being let down by lying politicians that had promised the moon and stars but couldn’t deliver. In an article written by A.J. Delgado it states, “But the American public has reached a tipping point- we’d rather gouge out our eyes than select another career politician or Washington insider.” This quote is one that I couldn’t agree with more. Americans finally decided for themselves that enough is enough, and we deserve a change in this
Today, much uncertainty exists in the United States. As President Trump clears his first 100 days in office, many Americans and people residing in the United States are afraid of the reckless and unpitying behavior Trump continues to brandish. Continue
Donald Trump, a once controversial political candidate, gave his 2017 Inaugural address on January 20th, 2017 when he was inaugurated as the 45th president of the United States. Through appeals such as syntax and diction, religion and patriotism, and logic, Donald Trump was able to generate a unifying speech toward his audience. Amidst the growing violence and repercussions of the 2016 election, Donald Trump, in his 2017 Inaugural address, sends the message that he will put America and its citizens first to unite the country and change America for the better.
President-Elect Trump issued a seven-point health care reform plan that is a preliminary version of the concept of what he would like to do. Furthermore, this eludes to Trump’s vision to, “…repeal and replace Obamacare with Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), work with Congress to create a patient-centered health care system that promotes choice, quality, and affordability, work with states to establish high-risk pools to ensure access to coverage for individuals who have not maintained continuous coverage, allow people to purchase insurance across state lines in all 50 states thus creating a dynamic market, require price transparency from all health care providers, remove barriers to enter into
In the book, Sanchez, (1995) focuses on ethnic studies and how prior to World War II, Mexican Americans had formed a unique identity that was not oriented toward Mexico but America, their new home. Despite facing unequal opportunity in social and economic spheres, immigrants nevertheless proceeded to build cohesive communities and strove to adapt their cultural identity to the American way. Mexican immigrants were beset by pressures from America to assimilate to the American way while facing more pressure from Mexico to remain loyal. In response, however, Mexican immigrants found the middle ground where they remained Mexican while being American citizens. In the analysis, the book alludes to cultural identity as stipulated by Stuart Hall where cultural identity is regarded as becoming and being.
In a time of transition for the nation, Trump tries to leave the audience with a lasting impression. By saying, “So to all Americans in every city near and far, small and large, from mountain to mountain, from ocean to ocean, hear these words; you will never be ignored again” there is an undeniable sense of hope. Trump’s final words are the most important because it concludes the message of hope and unity (Trump Inauguration Speech, 2017).
The 45th president of the United States, Donald Trump, definitely isn’t seen as a normal or establishment president. Throughout his election process and almost a year into his term, Trump has proven he is one of the more unique presidents in American history. Because of this uniqueness, he is typically highly criticize. Though, this criticism clouds some of the reality. In fact, in his first year, a lot of his presidential accomplishments are comparable to previous modern day presidents. Therefore, through general norms and patterns to evaluate a president, Trump has shown he is extremely unique, but also fits in with the presidential normalcy.
