✅ President Trump Has Kept His Promises — and Then Some – The White House

President Donald J. Trump embarked on his presidency with a bold agenda outlined in his “20 core promises to Make America Great Again.” Fast forward six months, and he is drawing accolades for what many supporters claim is an unprecedented fulfillment of those promises. From slashing costs to reinforcing border security and bolstering public safety, supporters argue that Trump has made more progress towards his goals than any predecessor in recent memory. And he insists that this is just the beginning.

But the scope of his achievements extends well beyond these core promises. President Trump has reportedly compelled hospitals across the country to retreat from their “gender-affirming care” practices for minors and chemical castration programs. He has also cut funding from perceived left-leaning media like PBS and NPR, overhauled diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives in corporate America and academia, eliminated what he deemed nonsensical “climate” projects, established English as the official language, and accomplished much more.
