If he were to win a second term in office, former president Donald Trump made it clear what his top goal may be.
The ex-president reiterated his commitment to halt the U.S.-Mexico borders in an essay published on Monday in the New York Post.

And that’s quickly, immediately, I’m back in the White House. No looking. My top priority and utter first order of business will be to assist the people of America. That’s what I care about”, he said. ” Day 1, my Act 1 will be to close that borders”.
His next concern, he added to the information store, is to “get the prices down” in what appears to be a research to somewhat increased and thick inflation.
President Trump has frequently stated in people that he would work to close the border if he were to win reelection, and that Joe Biden’s leadership has failed to do so.
Last season, he joked in a Fox News town hall event that he would be a “dictator… for one moment” of his presidency. ” We’re closing the borders, and we’re drilling, drilling, digging. After that, I’m hardly a dictator,'” he said.
