Commentary and Opinion By Donna Westfall – November 4, 2024

In our country’s 248 year old history, there has only been one other President to win a non-consecutive term and that was Grover Cleveland, the first Democrat elected after the Civil War.

Should Trump return to the White House in 2025, he will be the second President to do so. What will he do on Day 1?

First let’s recount some of the things President Biden did day 1. The four most memorable being:

* to stop construction of the wall on our US-Mexico border;

*Abolish the Muslim ban; and

* Revoke the permit for the Keystone XL pipeline and cancel other Trump administration energy rules; and

*Rejoin the Paris Climate accords as well as the World Health Organization.

Trump has promised to reverse much of the Biden administrations mistakes, Thank God.

It sounds like Trump will have RFK, Jr. become part of his cabinet and according to RFK, Jr. fluoride will be removed from the public drinking water Day 1. It only took 44 years for our town to vote it out and that poison was turned off in 2013. It took two tries at the ballot box though.

What else will Trump do? He’s named off over 40 things, but we’ll only concentrate on just five:

  1. Secure the border, deport illegal aliens and reverse the Democrats open border policy; and
  2. Put back in place some of the energy policies that made our country oil independent; and
  3. Ban transgenders from women’s sports; and
  4. Cut funding to schools that mandate masks and vaccines and that teach “critical race theory” and “transgender insanity”; and
  5. Repeal Biden’s electric vehicle mandate.

One of the biggest problems our country has endured due to the failed policies of President Biden is inflation. I scoff at his “Inflation Reduction Act” and I sincerely hope that Trump will be armed with plans to reverse that dangerous trend and get food prices and interest rates back down as soon as possible.

When you think about not being involved in any wars for the four years Trump was President, that is enormous. He’s a negotiator. His ideas and influence can very well end the war in Ukraine and Israel. On the other hand, Kamala Harris can’t even answer a straight question. I can’t imagine any country listening to her about anything.
