After months of chaos and campaigning, Trump won a historic race.

The twice-impeached, criminally charged 78-year-old who bragged about “killing” Roe v. Wade, purportedly incited an insurrection on our nation's Capitol, said he would imprison, punish, or "handle" any American citizen who stood against him, uplifted white supremacists, and who was found liable for sexual abuse will lead our country.

The Trump-Vance administration ran on several policies. Here's how they are worded, verbatim, on the campaign's website:

— "Seal the border and stop the migrant invasion;

— Carry out the largest deportation operation in American history;

— Cut federal funding for any school pushing critical race theory, radical gender ideology, and other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content on our children;

— Keep men out of women's sports;

— Make america the dominant energy producer in the world, by far!; 

— Prevent world war three;

— Strengthen and modernize our military, making it, without question, the strongest and most powerful in the world;

— Cancel the electric vehicle mandate and cut costly and burdensome regulations;

— Deport pro-Hamas radicals and make our college campuses safe and patriotic again;

— End inflation, and make america affordable again," and much more. 

And though it's not in their written policies, neither Trump nor Vance can distance themselves from far-right conservatives' Project 2025.

The plan promises to dismantle the Department of Education, remove access to abortion drugs nationwide, deploy the US military as law enforcement, remove protections for LGBTQ+ families, make birth control harder to obtain, disallow the FBI from combatting the spread of misinformation, decentering climate change initiatives from the Department of Agriculture, cutting diversity, equity, and inclusion programs, and more.
