Donald Trump is the first convicted felon to be president, so you really shouldn't trust what he says-- but in his victory speech, Trump vowed he would "govern by a simple motto: Promises made, promises kept. We're going to keep our promises".
While campaigning, Trump promised the biggest mass deportations of undocumented migrants in US history.
He also pledged to complete the building of a wall at the border with Mexico that was started during his first presidency.
Trump has promised an end to inflation, as well as sweeping tax cuts. He also said he would make tips tax-free, abolishing tax on social security payments and cutting corporation taxes.
He has proposed new tariffs of at least 10% on most foreign goods, with imports from China bearing an additional 60% tariff.
Trump again vowed to cut regulations, particularly as a way to help the American car industry. He has constantly attacked electric vehicles, promising to overturn Biden's targets encouraging the switch to cleaner cars.
He has pledged to increase production of fossil fuels (already the highest in the world) - vowing to open areas such as the Arctic wilderness to oil drilling,
Trump pledged to end the Ukraine conflict "within 24 hours" through a negotiated deal. He has also pledged to end the related violence in Lebanon, but gave no details on how.
Trump said that he would not sign into law a national abortion ban.
Trump has vowed to sack "within two seconds" of taking office prosecutor Jack Smith, who is leading two criminal investigations against him.
During the presidential debate with Harris, Trump said that Obamacare was “lousy health care. ... If we come up with something, and we are working on things, we’re going to do it and we’re going to replace it.” “I have concepts of a plan,” he added during a follow-up exchange.
We'll have to wait and see.
