Kudus Research and Advocacy Center a Ghanaian base organization would like to look into US President Donald J Trump second coming the expectations of the American people and the entire world at large, as the world witness his presidency as the 45th President of the United State of America from 2017-2020 and now 47th President of the United State.

Our interest on president Trump second nonconsecutive term as an organization is not that of his presidency but his occupants of the White House which is seen as the most powerful seats of government in the world which visually dictates basically all major happenings and dealings globally hence the need we weigh into its major policies and programs in relations to the expectations of the world for it has adverse effects and impact of global activities.

United States, a unipolar superpower country seen as the father of modern day democracy in the world with about 247 years old uninterrupted democratic practices who just held its general elections November 8,2024 that saw Donald J Trump winning a landslide victory sweeping both the electoral college votes that’s use to determine we wins the presidency and that of popular votes his party the Republican party took control of congress winning the senate and House majority given him an absolute control of government in all the three arms of government executive congress and judiciary as the Supreme court of the United State seen leaning towards the conservatives who are Republicans and Donald Trump as while, to that of his main content Kamala Harris and his Democratic Party.

Donald J Trump is the 45th and 47th president of the United State the second president in the history of America to achieve such fit two nonconsecutive terms as president Grover Cleveland 22nd and 24th president of the United State, the 47th president of the United is currently occupying the 48th presidency, many expectations are expected on his administration both in the United state and the world at large for they have already experience his presidency four years ago hence many dealings are expected to be different from previous either better the good ones or restructure the floors that happened previously.

Kudus Research and Advocacy Center describes 47th President Donald J Trump 48th presidency as Donald Trump 2.0 or Trumps second coming of which they are high expectations from the world, we look into the world expectations on Trump 2.0 on the Economy, Jobs, trade, immigration, peace and security, defense, advance and modern technology, climate change Russia Ukraine war Isreal Hamas war and the entire Middle East peace and security issues, participation of regional blocs gender and human right issues poverty alleviation among others.

Importantly before Kudus Research and Advocacy look into expectations of Donald Trump second term in office, we would like to look into Summary of Trump’s Final Numbers Statistical indicators of President Trump's four years in offices spanning from January 20,2017 to January 20,2021, the economy lost 2.7 million jobs. The unemployment rate increased by 1.7 percentage points to 6.4%. Paychecks grew faster than inflation. Average weekly earnings for all workers were up 8.4% after inflation. After-tax corporate profits went up, and the stock market set new records. The S&P 500 index rose 67.8%. The international trade deficit Trump promised to reduce went up. The U.S. trade deficit in goods and services in 2020 was the highest since 2008 and increased 36.3% from 2016. The number of people lacking health insurance rose by 3 million. The federal debt held by the public went up, from $14.4 trillion to $21.6 trillion. Home prices rose 27.5%, and the homeownership rate increased 2.1 percentage points to 65.8%.

According to factcheck.org which was first posted on October 8, 2021 | Updated on July 26, 2024.

Donald J Trump 2.0 despite high global expectations its incumbent upon him to satisfy all his domestic priority first before as generally the Americans prior to the 2024 general elections in November 8,2024 voters topmost concerns going to the elections was Economy Migrants issues Democracy, hence Trump 2.0 should look into hailing the economic woes created by previous regime job creation, tackle the education health housing modern infrastructure ranging from roads airports railways etc, Veterans issues homeless and ending of hunger by increasing social intervention programs among others of interest to the American people even when it was not made as a campaign promises to them.

Donald Trump 2.0 on economic growth before we look into expectations of Donald J Trump second term expectations lets look into his previous regime economic growth performance On Economic Growth Even before the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. economy began slowing down. Thereal (inflation-adjusted) gross domestic product went up in Trump’s first two years, peaking at an estimated 3% in 2018 — the highest since 2005. But the economy grew only 2.5% in 2019 and the bottom fell out in 2020.The real GDP declined 2.2% in 2020 from the previous year. It was the largest drop since 2009, when the nation’s economy declined 2.6% Recession. As and president, Trump promised the nation’s economy would grow on an annual basis by 4% to 6%. But it never exceeded 3%. Betterment of previous regime economic growth performance America and the world is expecting economic growth as prior to the 2024 general election he made varying economic promises of which the American people voted for him based on these promises despite it’s the American people he is accounting his stewardship to, the global number one and economic power country bound to high expectations on the economy as his previous regime saw many economic prosperity not only America but the entire until Coronavirus strike the world that saw global economic crumbled again, of which gradually picking again we expect that a big enhancements are made towards expanding the US economy and that of the world at large as at a long run when the US economy is doing well would propel global economic growth as well,

Donald Trump 2.0 On Jobs and Unemployment As a candidate, Trump proclaimed: “I am going to be the greatest jobs president that God ever created.” As president, Trump saw 113 months of continuous U.S. monthly job gains end in March 2020, when job growth collapsed because of the COVID-19 global pandemic as in his previous regime we looked into specifications starting with Employment A record nine years and five months of monthly job gains dating to October 2010 ended March 2020. The U.S. lost 1.4 million jobs that month, But he ended his presidency with an economy that had 2.7 million fewer jobs than when he started becoming the first president in modern times to experience a net loss of jobs over his time in office, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which has monthly employment figures dating to 1939 despite this lost attributed to the pandemic expectations from Trump 2.0 are that more jobs created in resolving the employment demands of the American people and the world at large, on Unemployment As a candidate, Trump frequently criticized the monthly unemployment rates as “phony numbers.” When Trump’s term ended in January 2021, the unemployment rate was 6.4% which was 1.7 percentage points higher than when he took office, but still lower than the unemployment rates when Presidents Jimmy Carter (7.5%), George H.W. Bush (7.3%) and George W. Bush (7.8%) left office now expectations are that work on well to achieve his unemployment rates as promised during , on Job Openings For nearly two years, Trump and the White House boasted that the U.S. had more job openings than workers to fill them. That was the case for 24 straight months from March 2018 through February 2020 a month before the pandemic lockdown began to swell the ranks of the unemployed. When Trump left office, the number of unfilled job openings stood at nearly 7.2 million which was 27.9% more than when he took office. But, because of the COVID-19-induced high unemployment rate, there were still 3 million more job-seekers than job openings with his new term expectations are that these figures are worked on and achieved to its fullest . on Labor Force Participation Under Trump, the rate seemed to stabilize and even ticked upward, reaching a high of 63.3% from October 2019 to February 2020. But, by the time he left office, the rate had dropped to 61.3% falling another 1.5 percentage points under Trump after going down 2.9 points during the Obama years. A working paper published by the National Bureau of Economic Research found “the onset of the covid-19 crisis led to a wave of earlier than planned retirements.” Again, expectations are that Trump 2.0 must make sure that labor force participate at its best for the only way to boast economic activities, on Manufacturing Jobs the U.S. economy added manufacturing jobs every month during Trump’s first 24 months in office. But those job gains began to erode beginning in March 2019, a year before the pandemic and took a deep dive as the virus crisis forced a wave of closings. Nearly 1.4 million manufacturing jobs were lost in March and April 2020. When Trump left office, there were 178,000 fewer people employed in manufacturing than when he became president. That followed a net decrease of 195,000 under Obama figures that Trump 2.0 needs to enhances in his next administrations for that’s our expectations and the world at large.

Donald Trump 2.0 0n Corporate Profits in previous regime After-tax corporate profits set new records in all four years of Trump’s presidency even in 2020, when the pandemic forced businesses to close, some permanently. Corporate profits hit a record $2.02 trillion in 2018 (see line 45), up from the previous record of nearly $2 trillion set in 2017. Profits rose slightly in 2019 ($2.08 trillion) and again in 2020 ($2.19 trillion). Despite the pandemic, after-tax corporate profits were 17.4% higher last year than they were in 2016, the year before Trump’s inauguration. An April study by economists at the Federal Reserve estimated that from March 2020 through February 2021 the “excess establishment exit” that is, permanent closures beyond what would otherwise have been expected was below 200,000 establishments. That implies “an exit rate about one-quarter to one-third above normal,” the study said. While many of those closures would involve small businesses that are not corporations, the figures give some indication of the economic impact of the pandemic. Clearly an indication that indeed a business minded and pro economic regime its and expectations are that more corporate profits would be added to US by Trump 2.0.

Donald Trump on Stock Market in previous regime After a pandemic-induced plunge in stock prices in March 2020 ended a decade-long bull market, the stock market quickly recovered and set new record highs. On Jan. 19, 2021, the Standard & Poor’s 500-stock average closed at 67.8% above where it had been the day before Trump was inaugurated in 2017. The Dow Jones Industrial Average, made up of 30 large corporations, was up 56.7% during Trump’s time in office. And the NASDAQ composite index, made up of more than 3,000 companies including many in the technology sector, more than doubled under Trump up 138.2% since he took office. These gains came after sizable increases in the market under Obama, when the S&P rose 166% and the Dow Jones went up 138% over his eight years, after the 2007-2009 financial crisis. An indication that Trump 2,0 expectations from the world and the world at large are that these figures get better and enhanced stock market platform.

Donald Trump 2.0 on Wages and Inflation During Trump’s four years in office, wages went up and inflation remained in check. CPI The Consumer Price Index rose 7.8% under Trump continuing a long period of low inflation that appears to be coming to an end under Biden, as supply chain problems and other factors drive up costs. The CPI rose an average of 1.9% each year of the Trump presidency (measured as the 12-month change ending each January), according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. That was about the same as the average under Obama (1.8%) and below the average of 2.4% during each of George W. Bush’s years. By contrast, CPI was up 5.2% in August compared with a year ago. Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powellsaid at a panel discussion in late September that he expected inflation pressures to continue into 2022. Wages Meanwhile, paychecks grew faster than prices during Trump’s tenure. The average weekly earnings of all private-sector workers, in “real” (inflation-adjusted) terms, rose 8.4% in Trump’s four years. Wages for rank-and-file production and nonsupervisory workers — who make up 81% of all private-sector workers went up 9.6% under Trump. The gains extended a trend that started after the 2007-2009 recession. During the Obama years, real weekly earnings rose 4.2% for all workers, and 4% for rank-and-file. Trump 2.0 expectations on him on wages and inflations are that he improves on the previous regime performance make it better as prior to his elections during campaign made promise of tackling the inflations and wage challenges.

Donald Trump on Consumer Sentiment Consumer confidence in the economy initially rose under Trump, who promised during the campaign to “make our economy grow again.” But, like other economic measures, it fell during the pandemic. The University of Michigan’s Surveys of Consumers monthly index was 87.2 in October 2016, a month before the 2016 presidential election, and 98.5 in January 2017, when Trump took office. Under Trump, the consumer confidence rate reached 100 or more five times a level that it hadn’t reached during Obama’s eight years or any of the prior four years during Bush’s second term. The rate under Trump peaked at 101.4 in March 2018 the highest it had been since January 2004. It was at 101 in February 2020, a month before the pandemic shut down large parts of the economy. From there, the rate fell 11.9 points in March 2020 and plunged another 17.3 points in April 2020, when the rate dropped to 71.8 its lowest level during the Trump presidency. When Trump left office, the preliminary figure for January 2021 was 79 a 8.2 points lower than where it was in October 2016, just before Trump was elected, and 19.5 points lower than where it stood when he took office in January 2017. Expectations are that these figure would be bettered with policies and programs aimed to induced it by Trump 2.0.

Donald Trump 2.0 Home Prices in his previous regime home prices set annual records in each of Trump’s four years in office. The national median price of an existing, single-family home was $300,200 last year, according to seasonally adjusted annual sales figures from the National Association of Realtors. That’s 27.5% higher than it was in 2016, when the median price was $235,500. Much of the rise has taken place since the pandemic hit. Existing single-family home prices jumped 12.9% from February 2020 to January 2021. Experts attribute the higher prices to high demand, supply shortages and record-low mortgage rates. The Realtors’ figures reflect raw sales prices without accounting for inflation. But home prices far outstripped inflation during Trump’s tenure. The Consumer Price Index rose only 7.6% during that same period. Expectations are that as a real estate developer needs to make sure that housing prices are moderate and can be afforded by the American people

Donald Trump 2.0 0n Homeownership in his previous regime the percentage of Americans who own their homes continued to recover under Trump, but it has yet to return to the highs of 2004. The homeownership rate, which the Census Bureau measures as the percentage of housing units that are owner-occupied, peaked at 69.2% for two quarters in 2004. From there, the rate steadily fell for more than a decade, and tied for the lowest on record in the second quarter of 2016 at 62.9%. (Census Bureau homeownership rates date to 1965, when the rate was 62.9% for the first nine months of that year.) The rate recovered 0.8 points in Obama’s last six months, and the trend generally continued over the last four years. In Trump’s last quarter in office, the homeownership rate reached 65.8% a 2.1 points higher than it was when he took office. The Census Bureau, however, urged data users to “exercise caution when comparing the second, third, and fourth quarter 2020 estimates” to previous quarters because of the pandemic and changes in data collection caused by the pandemic. Census said it suspended in-person data collection in March 2020, because of the spread of the coronavirus. An indication that rump 2.0 can do better to enhanced these figures and making sure homeownership by the American people rise as it’s the expectations of every America and also to mute and silence political opponent Kamala Harris whose main campaign promise was on affordable homeownership.

Donald Trump 2.0 On Trade The international trade deficit Trump once promised to reduce grew larger instead, increasing three out of his four years in office. The most recent government figures show that the total U.S. trade deficit in goods and services in 2020 was almost $654 billion the highest since 2008 and an increase of 36.3% from 2016.Annual exports of goods and services decreased 3.6% in 2020 compared with 2016. Meanwhile, annual imports of goods and services were up 3.4% in 2020 compared with four years earlier. With Trump 2.0 the new regime the world expect its trade policies and programs to target fair reciprocal trade rules and practices with flexibly tariffs regimes obviously that would satisfy his America first agenda that seeks to reestablished the Made in America brand as global number brand, sees its goods and services flooding the international markets, as Trump already hinted of possible hikes in tariffs of goods and services of some of US major trading partners including China US Mexico Canada traded pack reviews, important to note by the world is trade wars as a pro economic minded regime who places trade as one of its topmost priority trade war bound to happen hence the need the world prepare towards it especially the two major global economic power house US and China when they is tassel between the two it affects global trade practices and economy as seen in Trumps previous regime, US trade deficit with China and other major trading partners would be expected to reduce if not to completely resolve, but beyond all these trade expectations what would World Trade Organization WTO and other major stakeholder bring on board in making sure that trade practices are fair reciprocal and transparent for many are times that the US accuse WTO of bending the rules in favor of China as its classification as developing country gives it undue advantage over others in global or international trade practices for its cheap or low currency exchange ratings makes its goods and services cheap given them undue competitive advantage in the international trade markets among many that the world expects to be addressed by Trump 2.0 but it’s important we put into context Donald Trump previous regime on trade with US major trading partners we start with China After increases in his first two years, the annual goods-and-services trade deficit with China decreased in 2019 and 2020. The $282 billion deficit with China in Trump’s final year as president was 9% lower than it was the year before he took office. Canada Trump inherited an almost $11 billion goods-and-services trade surplus with Canada, which later became a $1.1 billion annual deficit in 2019. While it rebounded to a $649 million surplus in 2020, that figure was 94% lower than it was in 2016. Mexico The annual goods-and-services trade deficit with Mexico steadily increased throughout Trump’s four-year presidency. As of 2020, it was up to $111 billion, which was 72% higher than the more than $64 billion deficit in 2016. Expectations are that another trade war in the making these time that aims in making sure that US trade deficit and other targets are met with enhanced new deals and old one renegotiates US goods and services flooding global markets.

Donald Trump 2.0 on Debt and Deficits The federal debt held by the public went up by half under Trump, and deficits also increased each fiscal year on his watch. Debt — Trump made no progress in erasing the debt, which the then-presidential candidate once said he could probably do in eight years. Rather, the amount the federal government has borrowed from the public went up by 50% during Trump’s time in office from $14.4 trillion on the day he was inaugurated to $21.6 trillion the day his successor was sworn in. Likewise, the debt as a percentage of the economy also grew under Trump, rising from 76.2% of GDP in fiscal year 2016 to 100.1% of GDP in fiscal year 2020, according to figures from the Office of Management and Budget. Deficits Trump left office almost four months after the U.S. recorded its largest annual deficit of $3.1 trillion in fiscal year 2020. That historic shortfall was mostly the result of the coronavirus pandemic, which reduced government revenues and spurred massive government spending (and borrowing) to help the nation cope with the economic and public health challenges of the pandemic. But, prior to that, annual deficits had consistently risen under Trump, going from $585 billion in fiscal 2016 the last full budget cycle before Trump’s presidency to $984 billion in fiscal 2019. In addition, as of January 2020, which preceded the March declaration of the pandemic, the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office had projected that the deficit would reach $1 trillion in fiscal 2020 and average $1.3 trillion between fiscal years 2021 and 2030. Then, three weeks after Trump was no longer president, CBO projected that, solely based on laws already in effect as of Jan. 12, the fiscal 2021 deficit would be $2.3 trillion. It continued to rise after Biden took office, as the new president and a Democratic-controlled Congress provided still more pandemic relief. Donald Trump 2.0 general expectations on him is how to effectively manage and stir the affairs of the American people and the world at large thankfully he has already make a significant moves towards such by creating a department known as the Department of Government Efficiency co headed by billionaires Elon Musk and businessman Vivek Ramaswamy who are expected to makes sure government spendings and other resources allocated are managed efficiently to the expectations of the American people and the world at large, As its main role is to advise the White house and the president on spending and its related matters to minimize waste hence this new department will play a critical role on how the funding and other resources are allocated and spent in the international front as the global number funder of major global projects and programs, too much waste recorded that Department of Government Efficiency will be looking into and making sure the necessary cuts are made to minimize wastage of the American taxpayers.

Donald Trump 2.0 on Regulations The growth of federal regulation slowed to a crawl under Trump. The number of restrictive words and phrases (such as “shall,” “prohibited” or “may not”) contained in the Code of Federal Regulations stayed below 1.08 million for most of 2019— a little below where it was when Trump took office. But as of the day he left office, the count had crept up to just under 1.09 million — an increase of 10,141 (or 0.9%) since Trump’s inauguration. That small increase during Trump’s four years is a big departure from the past, when restrictions grew 12.3% during Bush’s eight years and by 12.5% during Obama’s eight years, according to annual figures from the QuantGov tracking project at George Mason University’s Mercatus Center. Expectations are that more friendly federal regulations that aims to induce growth productivity and the financial need by Trump 2.0 to be putting in place in making sure that previous regime figure that was not encouraging be put into proper perspective and his new regime makes significant gain towards regulations that will propel growth.

That slowdown under Trump may be temporary, however. In what it called “the largest deregulatory initiative of this administration,” the Trump administration issued a final rule that nullified Obama-era fuel economy standards for new cars and light trucks. Trump’s rule requires them to maintain an average efficiency of 40.4 miles per gallon by model year 2025, down from the 46.7 mpg set under Obama. But now the Biden administration is proposing new rules that it estimates will result in average efficiency of 48 mpg by model year 2026.

Donald Trump 2.0 the world expects it to look into global financial issues relating to banking crisis that loomed the US and the world, Money laundry , modern electronic payments systems importantly currency manipulations and protections of the US dollar to still remain the global number one currency means of transection, as BRICS + countries plans to abandon the US dollar and introduce its own currency means of transecting among each other already receives strong resistance and opposition from Trump 2.0 with threats of imposing 100% tariffs increment on their goods and services if such moves are made, now global industrial players like World Bank International Monetary Fund IMF Global Fund Bank of America and other major industrial players needs to team up and have watchful eyes in making sure the global financial sector runs smoothly and being sanitized for the betterment of the world.

Donald Trump 2.0 the world expect policies and programs that would promote major modern technology and advance technology drive that will propel growth globally and other activities but should be free from national security concerns, Trump 2.0 the world expect it to put regulations to make sure that it regulate activities of Artificial Intelligence as many experts suggest it will take human jobs and other usage of it, for the technological world Trump 2.0 is expected to do more than what the world expect has been surrounded by high profile industrial players like Elon Musk Tesla and SpaceX founder and owner among others.

Donald Trump 2.0 on Health Insurance Coverage but first let’s look into his previous regime what transpired the number of people lacking health insurance rose by 3 million under Trump. The U.S. Census Bureau reported Sept. 14 that the number of Americans who lacked health insurance for all of 2020 was 28 million up from 25.1 million in 2016. That’s an increase of 2.9 million. The percentage of Americans without coverage for all of 2020 rose to 8.6%, from 7.9% in 2016. During Trump’s tenure, the number of uninsured Americans rose for the first time in a decade in 2018.(A technical note: Due to changes in survey methods, the latest Census report says that 2018 and later estimates can be compared with 2016 estimates from a research file, available here.)The Census report matches a trend measured on a more frequent and timely basis by the National Health Interview Survey. The NHIS put the number of people who lacked coverage at the time they were interviewed not necessarily for the entire year at 31.6 million in 2020, an increase of 3 million over 2016. The NHIS said 9.7% of the population lacked coverage at the time of interview in 2020, up from 9% in 2016.Trump failed to “repeal and replace” the Affordable Care Act as he promised to do, but his administration did slash advertising and outreach aimed at enrolling people in Obamacare plans. In December 2017, he signed a tax bill that ended the ACA’s tax penalty for people who fail to obtain coverage, effective in 2019. And in March 2019 the Trump administration joined an effort by GOP state attorneys general seeking a court decision to overturn the entire act. Ultimately, the Supreme Court ruled the plaintiffs in that case lacked standing, meaning they did not demonstrate “an injury ‘fairly traceable’ to the ‘allegedly unlawful conduct,’” the court said in its opinion. Expectations are that Trump 2.0 would be able to final repel the Obama Care introduce more legislative bill to take care of health insurance and health care in general of the American people, increase enrollment and access to health insurance as name vaccine skeptic Robert Kennedy Jr as his health secretary expectations are that would hit the ground running in delivery better health care infrastructure of modern standard equipped with advanced and modern technology among others.

Donald Trump 2.0 on Judiciary Appointments during his first time, in one term, Trump’s nominees filled one-third of the Supreme Court, nearly 30% of the appellate court seats and a quarter of District Court seats. On the Supreme Court Trump won Senate confirmation for three Supreme Court nominees, Justice Neil M. Gorsuch, Justice Brett M. Kavanaugh and Justice Amy Coney Barrett, who was confirmed in late October by the Republican-led Senate, about a week before the Nov. 3 election. Trump filled one-third of all seats on the high court during his term. On Court of Appeals Trump also won confirmation of 54 U.S. Court of Appeals judges (30 during his first two years and another 24 in his last two years). That’s far more than the total for Obama in his first term, when he won confirmation for 30 judges (16 during his first two years and 14 more in the subsequent two years). And Trump’s total is just one shy of the 55 confirmations Obama achieved over eight years. Trump installed nearly 30% of all the 179 appellate court judges authorized by federal law. On District Court — Trump won confirmation for 175 of his nominees to be federal District Court judges. That’s nearly 26% of the 677 authorized district judges. Obama won confirmation for 143 in his first term and 127 in his second. Trump also filled 10 seats on the U.S. Court of Federal Claims, which has nationwide jurisdiction over lawsuits seeking money from the government. And he filled three seats on the U.S. Court for International Trade. Obama filled four seats on the Court for International Trade and no seats on the Court of Federal Claims during his eight years in office. Trump must share responsibility for this record with Republicans in the Senate. The Republican-majority Senate not only refused to consider Obama’s appointment of Merrick Garland to fill the Supreme Court vacancy eventually filled by Gorsuch, but they also blocked confirmation of dozens of Obama’s nominees to lower courts. Trump inherited 17 Court of Appeals vacancies, for example, including seven that had Obama nominees pending but never confirmed. Expectations would not be different on and Trump 2.0 must make sure available vacancies with his party senate majority should make sure of it and make sure it’s filled again.

Donald Trump 2.0 the world expects it to bring the world the peace and security it deserves as currently the world is experiencing numerous security challenges across the world ranging from Europe to Middle East to Africa to the Caribbean among other places that needs outmost attention to bring law and order to bring peace and security in these places, the world expects Trump 2.0 as the commander in Chief of the unipolar superpower country to up it game in making sure the is peace and security for smooth running of global affairs for without peace and security the world would not be a better place for we all to leave not to talk of running our affairs, but that cannot be done by Trump 2.0 it needs collective hands and collaborations from all major stakeholders including regional and global blocs like United Nations UN North Atlantic Treaty Organization NATO European Union EU African Union AU among others to come together in making sure that all necessary measures taken to bring law and order in making sure the is peace and safe security in the world, with collaborations and obedience of Trump 2.0 we expect the worlds expectations of absolute peace and security would be achieved why because not only they are the world number one financiers and provision of resources towards global peace and security but the expertise and attention alone brought onboard would be a big game changer.

Donald Trump 2.0 on Border Security but first let’s look into his previous regime facts and figures regarding border security, Illegal border crossings, as measured by apprehensions at the Southwest border, were 14.7% higher in Trump’s final year in office compared with the last full year before he was sworn in. The number of apprehensions fluctuated wildly during Trump’s presidency, from a monthly low of 11,127 in April 2017 to a high of 132,859 in May 2019. After constant talk on the campaign trail about building a wall and cracking down on illegal immigration, the number of apprehensions plummeted in the immediate months after Trump’s inauguration — “what became known as the Trump Effect,” Jessica Bolter, an associate policy analyst at the Migration Policy Institute, told Factcheck.org. The monthly low of 11,127 in April 2017 is unmatched in Customs and Border Protection records going back to 2000.The number of apprehensions peaked in mid-2019, and the year ended with the highest number of apprehensions since 2007. In response, Trump issued several policies to reduce immigration flows, including measures to restrict eligibility for asylum and return non-Mexican asylum seekers who cross the Southwest border to Mexico while their claims work their way through immigration courts (the so-called “Remain in Mexico” program). Correspondingly, apprehensions dropped steadily through the second half of 2019 and into 2020. And then, when the pandemic hit, apprehensions dropped even more dramatically in April and May 2020. In response to the pandemic, Trump put into place a series of policies aimed at blocking migration to the U.S., including one that allowed border patrol to quickly expel any illegal immigrants they stopped, without access to the appeals system. While the policy may have deterred families with children from crossing, it served as an incentive for single adults to attempt illegal crossings, multiple times, if necessary, there was an increase in apprehensions in the second half of 2020. Trump didn’t fulfill the signature promise of his 2016 campaign to build a 1,000-mile-long wall along the Southwest border. Nonetheless, a substantial amount of fencing was constructed. In total, 458 miles of “border wall system” was built during the Trump administration, according to a CBP status report on Jan. 22, 2021. Most of that, 373 miles of it, is replacement for primary or secondary fencing that was dilapidated or outdated. In addition, 52 miles of new primary wall and 33 miles of secondary wall were built in locations where there were no barriers before. Since the land border itself is 1,954 miles long, according to the US-Mexico International Boundary and Water Commission, the new fencing constructed under Trump covers just over 20% of the Southwest border. Together with what existed before Trump took office, there are now about 706 miles of barriers, about 36% of the total Southwest border. Expectations on Trump 2.0 are that since this is considered a flagship campaign promise more policies programs resources funds and other facilities needed in making sure the last regime figures are bettered, efforts made during Biden administrations that fit into Trump 2.0 policies and programs towards enhancing border security adapted and new Trump 2.0 as all expected kick start and make sure campaign promise and border security target achieved if not all but 90% of it.

Donald Trump 2.0 the world expects it to bring onboard policies and programs that intends to resolve the world never ending migrant’s crisis that bedeviled the world in the last two decades, with merit base solutions that seeks to address the migrants crisis from its root causes focus on merit base migrants crisis on most likely origin countries and continent as in the case of the United State most of the caravan of migrants passes through the US Mexico southern border which prior to the election was one of the topmost priorities of the American voters hence the need maxim attention placed on it in making sure if not to absolutely stop illegal crossing into the US but minimize it drastically, fulfilling of campaign promise of continuation of the building of the wall increase border security collaborate with other major stakeholders within the region, but the world expect Trump 2.0 not only to resolve the domestic US southern border migrants crisis issues but also the world at large with policies and programs targeting most likely origin of migrants especially from the third world or developing countries who most are times moves in search of greener pastures due harsh economic conditions also some due to wars and conflicts how can democracy constitutional rule practices be made available to these places in making sure it minimize refugee situations and caravan of migrants movements across borders, natural disaster how can humanitarian assistance be quickly offered to these places in making sure it avert migrants movements in huge numbers but the world should be reminded that these expectations cannot be achieved alone with Trump 2.0 even when it have all the world resources at its disposal but major stakeholders needs to get involve talking about most likely Origin and destination countries, International Organization of Migrants IOM, regional and global blocs needs to be involved in making sure that the global migrants crisis is resolved important expectation from Trump 2.0 is that of allocation of funding and resources towards his policies and programs which aims to resolve global migrants crisis be increased.

Donald Trump 2.0 on Crime Murders and aggravated assaults shot up dramatically under Trump first term in office, while most other types of crime declined. In his inaugural address, Trump darkly portrayed America as a country mired in poverty, drugs and crime. “This American carnage stops right here and stops right now,” he promised. But quite the contrary, the FBI’s annual Crime in the United States report, released Sept. 27, shows 4,157 more homicides were committed in 2020 than in 2016, when Trump was elected. That translates to a murder rate per 100,000 people of 6.5 in 2020, an increase of 1.1 points since 2016. The 2020 rate was the highest since 1997, though still well below the peak 10.2 rate recorded in 1980.The rate of aggravated assaults also rose under Trump by 12.6%. However, the rate of reported rapes declined by 6.1%, and the rate of robberies went down 28.2%. The burglary rate dropped 33%, and the rate of larcenies and thefts went down 19.9%, while the rate of motor vehicle thefts edged up a scant 3.7%. The big jump in the number of murders is entirely due to a 29% rise in Trump’s final year, which also saw millions laid off from jobs due to the COVID-19 pandemic; widespread protests against racism and police brutality following a Minneapolis policeman’s murder of a black man, George Floyd; and a surge in production and sales of firearms. Expectations are that policies and programs relating guns be initiated that aims to minimize crime in general by making the available resources and funding in that regards.

Donald Trump 2.0 on Guns Sales and production of guns slowed during Trump’s presidency until COVID-19 concerns and protests against policing triggered huge spikes last year. Handgun Production In 2020, the annual production of pistols and revolvers in the U.S. set a new record of 6.3 million, according to interim figures from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. That represented a 75% spike from last year and an increase of 12.5% from 2016, when production surged to a previous record high of nearly 5.6 million. Gun Sales Gun sales also slowed during Trump’s presidency until last year. The government doesn’t collect data on gun sales. But the National Shooting Sports Foundation the gun industry’s trade group estimates gun sales by tracking the number of background checks for firearm sales based on the FBI’s National Instant Background Check System, or NICS. The NSSF-adjusted figures exclude background checks unrelated to sales, such as those required for concealed-carry permits. The NSSF-adjusted figure for the sales of firearms in Obama’s final year reached a then-record high of 15.7 million. Gun sales didn’t approach that level in each of Trump’s first three years. But, in Trump’s last year in office in 2020, firearm sales set a new high of nearly 21.1 million. The NSSF-adjusted figures are only an approximation of actual sales, since some of these checks cover purchases of multiple weapons, and of course some sales still occur without background checks. Trump 2.0 a good friend of the firearms and gun family hence pro-gun policies and programs are expected to support the course of the National Riffle Association NRA.

Donald Trump 2.0 the world expects resolution of the Russia and Ukraine war as currently its activities have made the world insecure especially that of Europe since the cold war Europe have never witness a magnitude devastating war impact and destructions of these magnitude, Trump 2.0 the world expect him to look into ways of resolving the Russian Ukraine war as a made it one of his campaign message that led to his landslide victory with a promise of resolving the war with a “Phone call” as how viable that claim is another day for discussion, helping Ukraine with weapons ammunitions and other resources needed to defend itself, more pressure on Russia by way of economic sanctions, warn strongly against countries who are helping Russia in its war course in Ukraine incursion with troops funding military wares technology among others that Trump 2.0 will not take it kindly, The world also expect Trump 2.0 to look into consulting major stakeholders like NATO EU UN Ukraine Russia and even China North Korea Iran Syria among others who are seen to aiding Russia in its war course in Ukraine for peace, after peace is gradual restored what would be the faith of the Russia occupied Ukraine territories how Ukraine and Russia would be rebuild among other key concerns the world is expecting from Trump 2.0

Donald Trump 2.0 the world expects him to introduce policies programs and plans that will bring peace in the Middle East especially that of Isreal Hamas standoff in Gaza Syria unrest of regime change struggles, Yemen Houthi rebels Islamic state operations and activities among others that poses insecurity in the region, Trump 2.0 is expected to restructure his peace plan in Middle East that would include two state solution for Isreal and Palestine mute Houthi rebels Islamic state operations and get involved in Syria regime change activities to bring stability and constitutional rule in that country, Iran acquisition of nuclear weapon as seen as threat to regional security needs to put as one of Trump 2.0 priority, Trump 2.0 cannot do it alone but can be done with the help of major stakeholders in the region like Saudi Arabia Jordan UAE Qatar Egypt Turkey Iran Isreal Palestine Lebanon among others by teaming up with ideas resources and troops to help resolve it.

Donald Trump 2.0 the world expects active participation of regional and global blocs but let’s look into his previous administration pass record on regional blocs despite challenges encounter regarding funding and other policies by these blocs didn’t suite his political and policies agenda like that of the Paris climate accord, NATO members lack on active contribution towards defense by way of paying their dues, we expect Trump 2.0 make amends in that regards, enhanced his regional blocs actives but the leadership and members of these blocs must also collaborate and comport for smooth joint dealings.

Donald Trump 2.0 on Coal and Environment in his previous regime Coal Mining Jobs as a candidate, Trump promised to “put our [coal] miners back to work,” but that didn’t happen. There were 12,700 fewer coal mining jobs in January than when Trump took office. That’s a decline of 25%. Even before the pandemic, coal mining jobs were on the decline under Trump. There were 50,800 coal mining jobs in January 2017, when Trump became president. But at the end of 2019, there were 48,000 such jobs a decline of 2,800. The job losses continued in early 2020 and accelerated during the pandemic dropping to a new low of 37,100 in April 2020. The job losses continued a trend that began decades ago. In January 1985, there were 170,500 coal mining jobs, but the industry hasn’t had more than 100,000 jobs since January 1995. In Obama’s eight years, the industry lost 35,500 jobs, a decline of 41%. U.S. coal production declined by 26.5% under Trump, from 728 million short tons in 2016 to 535 million short tons in 2020. Last year’s production was the lowest annual level since 1965. EIA expects U.S. coal production to increase 15% this year. On Carbon Emissions Carbon dioxide emissions from energy consumption dropped sharply last year because of the global economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Emissions in the U.S. fell to 4.6 billion metric tons the lowest level since 1983 and an 11.3% decrease from 2016, according to Energy Information Administration data. But even before the pandemic, U.S. carbon emissions largely have been on the decline. In a July report, the EIA said U.S. energy-related carbon dioxide emissions peaked at 6 billion metric tons in 2007 and fell to 5.1 billion by 2019 a 14% drop. “This decline in emissions occurred even though U.S. real GDP grew by 22% during the same period,” the EIA report said. The EIA attributed the decline to numerous factors, including cheaper natural gas, an expansion of clean energy capacity, and improved energy efficiency of buildings, vehicles and equipment. Under Trump, annual emissions rose once in four years, when they increased by 2.9% in 2018. The following year, in 2019, CO2 emissions fell 2.5% before dropping sharply during the pandemic last year. EIA expects CO2 emissions to increase by about 7% in the U.S. this year as the economy improves and travel increases. On Oil Production and Imports The increase in crude oil production that began under Obama continued under Trump, soaring to new record highs before COVID-19 contributed to a decline in 2020. The 4.1 billion barrels produced last year were still more than in any year other than 2019, when nearly 4.5 billion barrels were produced, according to the Energy Information Administration. Even with the down year, crude oil production was up 27.9% in 2020 compared with 2016. Increased domestic production under Trump led to fewer annual crude oil imports, which were down 25% in 2020 from four years earlier. The total number of imported crude oil barrels in 2020 2.15 billion was the lowest total since 1991.However, while the U.S. again became a net exporter of petroleum products last year, it remained a net importer of crude oil, specifically, the EIA said. Expectations are that Trump 2.0 policies and programs be kept in place that seeks to either enhance his previous regime figures, better Biden administration figures and final the new ideas by way of regulations policies and programs towards making sure that US Coal and its environmental related matters are dealt with accordingly in view of bettering the lives of the American people and the world at large.

Donald Trump 2.0 the world expects climate change action to be more resilient from Trump 2.0 despite seen as not a fan of climate action with threats of withdrawing the US from the Paris climate accord a main policy framework guiding global climate action as he did in previous times during his term as the 45th president of the United State no hopes of Trump 2.0 increasing US funding allocations for climate action nor resources but moderate participation.

Donald Trump 2.0 the world expects policies and programs on basic fundamental human right protection promotions of gender issues protections of minority groups among others as Trump 2.0 previous regime was always strong on human right issues especially on China even at a point withdrew from UN human right organ activities and funding it, Developing countries especially in Africa Asia Latin America who most at times faces basic human rights challenges especially women the girl child and the minority groups, China human right violations in the Hong Kong Tibet Xinjiang Uyghur autonomous region remains a great concern of which minority groups like the Uyghurs and other Turkic Muslims are forced population control with simulation of their reproductive organ, force labor religious freedom violations among others, Afghanistan huma right violations on the Women and the girl child needs to be look into of which they have been derived o basic accessibility like school working and appearing in public aside their streak dressing code for women Myanmar Muslim minority groups Bangladesh force labor and other related human right violations, Africa women minority groups LGBTQ, disable girl child education religious tribal media freedom among others facing them, Trump 2.0 is expected to look into but that cannot be done alone it should be done in collaborations and teaming up with major stakeholders including International non-governmental human rights organizations such as Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, International Service for Human Rights and FIDH monitor what they see as human rights issues around the world and promote their views on the subject.

Human rights defender are people who, individually or with others, act peacefully to promote or protect human rights Corporations like Multinational companies play an increasingly large role in the world, and have been responsible for numerous human rights abuses.

Donald Trump On Income and Poverty in his previous regime we looked into how it was tackled we start with Household Income Household income rose briskly under Trump before declining last year due to the pandemic. The Census Bureau’s latest report on “Income and Poverty in the United States,” which was released Sept. 14, showed that median household income reached $67,521 in 2020 a 2.9% decrease from 2019 but an increase of $3,838 from 2016 when adjusted for inflation. That’s an increase in median household income of 6% during Trump’s four years. (The median is the midpoint half of all households earned more, half less.) However, a Census statistician told FactCheck.org that the bureau, in the next couple of months, will publish work that accounts for survey nonresponse due to the pandemic, which could change the 2020 income estimates. In addition, Census officials have said that some caution should be exercised when making comparisons to estimates prior to 2017, since recent estimates reflect improvements made to the Current Population Survey Annual Social and Economic Supplement in 2014 and 2019. The bureau previously published adjusted estimates showing what median household income would have been for past years, had the current questionnaire and processing procedures been in place. On that adjusted basis, the increase during Trump’s four years would be slightly higher $4,083, or 6.4%, in 2020 dollars. On Poverty As incomes decreased, the official poverty rate increased about 1% from 2019. It was at 11.4% in 2020, up from 10.5% in 2019. It was the first increase in the official poverty rate after five consecutive years of declines, dropping 1.3 percentage points in 2015, 0.8 points in 2016, 0.4 points and 0.5 points in Trump’s first two years, and 1.3 points in 2019. In 2020, there were 37.2 million people in poverty, nearly 3.3 million more than in 2019. Overall, since 2016, the year before Trump took office, the poverty rate dropped by 1.3 percentage points, and the number of people in poverty went down by 3.4 million. The official poverty rate, however, does not include government programs that benefit low-income families and individuals such as housing assistance and food stamps that were expanded in COVID-19 relief bills that became law last year. The Census Bureau measures the impact of these programs using the Supplemental Poverty Measure, which it began publishing in 2011.The supplemental poverty rate fell significantly last year, from 11.8% in 2019 to 9.1% in 2020 “the lowest rate since estimates were initially published for 2009,” Census said in a Sept. 14 report. “Stimulus payments, enacted as part of economic relief legislation related to the COVID-19 pandemic, moved 11.7 million individuals out of poverty. Unemployment insurance benefits, also expanded during 2020, prevented 5.5 million individuals from falling into poverty,” the bureau said. Under Trump, the overall supplemental poverty rate fell nearly 5 percentage points, from 14% in 2016 to a record low 9.1%, and the number of people in poverty fell by nearly 15 million. Trump 2.0 the world expects that polices programs and other initiatives towards poverty alleviation to end hunger must be the topmost priority of the which resources and funding allocated toward its achievement, sustainable Developments Goals also needs be look into as the well as the world expect Trump 2.0 to achieve the SDGs targets to alleviate the world from developing to developed status.

Donald Trump 2.0 on Food Stamps Trump trimmed the rolls of food-stamp recipients, but only modestly. The number getting food stamps (now known as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance) rose by 14.7 million under George W. Bush and by another 10.7 million under Obama, but fell back only 590,436 by the end of Trump’s time in office. That’s a decline of 1.4% under Trump. Trump had attempted to cut the number of recipients even further, for example, by tightening work requirements for able-bodied adults without dependents. And indeed, the total number of recipients dipped below 36.9 million in February 2020. But then the COVID-19 pandemic forced nearly 22 million out of work. Trump then reversed course. He signed a bipartisan emergency relief bill that (among other things) both suspended the new work requirement rule temporarily and made families eligible for food stamps if their children had received free or reduced-cost meals at schools that were then closed. During his last month in office, more than 42 million Americans were still receiving the food aid. That’s about 12.7% of the population, or 1 out of 8 Americans. Trump 2.0 the world expects that polices programs and other initiatives towards poverty alleviation to end hunger must be the topmost priority of the which resources and funding allocated toward its achievement, sustainable Developments Goals also needs be look into as the well as the world expect Trump 2.0 to achieve the SDGs targets to alleviate the world from developing to developed status.

Kudus Research and Advocacy Center in conclusion despite Trump 2.0 have already signed over 300 executive orders his trade war with high tariffs on China Mexico and Canada mass deportations of illegal migrants quest for US to reclaim Panama Canal, withdrawal from the Paris climate accord among other suggest that the world expectations of Donald J Trump 45th and 47th President of the United White House second coming or Chapter two is something that needs collective hands on deck and shouldn’t be seen as you alone kind of activities despite the leader and dictator of global affairs major stakeholder needs to join hands in making sure OUR WORLD expectations of Trump 2.0 is rightful achieved ranging from the Economy Job creations, Financial sector, Migrants defense Russia Ukraine Middel East -Isreal Hamas conflict resolutions and peace efforts, Modern and advance technology infrastructure developments, peace and security Human right poverty alleviation and ending of hunger among others, but we fully acknowledged all relevant institution organizations that we sources our materials from especially that of Factcheck.org among others we also acknowledge the US presidency global agendas efforts Bill Gates Kudus Research and Advocacy Center executive director Yussif Abdul Kudus an inspiration to these work.
