I have my own list, but this is a good one also.
- Executive order enacted Jan. 1, 2021 requiring hospitals to provide medical prices to patients upfront so they can shop around.
- Reversing the ascent of the Islamic extremist terrorist group ISIS.
- “Most Favored Nation” executive order so that the U.S. (through Medicare) would pay no more for a drug than what’s offered to foreign countries, saving the U.S. an estimated “$85 billion in savings over seven years and $30 billion in out-of-pocket costs.”
- Moving the U.S. embassy in Israel to the capital of Jerusalem.
- Building more than 450 miles of new and replacement border wall.
- Leading U.S. to a level of energy independence (exporting more oil than importing for the first time in 70 years), allowing international policy decisions to be made with less regard to how an oil nation we once relied on would respond.
- No new wars.
- Drastic reduction in regulations, opening the door for entrepreneurs and businesses to succeed, expand, and hire more people. According to the Trump administration, they promised to eliminate two regulations for every new one, but actually wound up eliminating 8 old regulations for every 1 new regulation adopted, equating into an extra $3,100 a year for the average American household.
- Expanding Republican reach among African Americans and other constituents who traditionally lean Democrat.
- Cutting taxes in an initiative that benefitted every tax bracket.
- Doubled the child tax credit.
- Operation Warp Speed: accelerated development of coronavirus vaccines.
- Eliminated the Obamacare penalty.
- A series of trade agreements and changes seen as beneficial to Americans, including replacing NAFTA with USMCA.
- Instead of 2-for-1, we eliminated 8 old regulations for every 1 new regulation adopted.
- Provided the average American household an extra $3,100 every year.
- Started the Space Force.
- Instituted “Right to Try,” allowing terminally ill patients to use potentially lifesaving, unproven treatments.
- Prioritized and made permanent funding for historically black colleges.
- Brokered peace deals or normalization agreements between Israel and five Muslim and Arab-Muslim countries.
- Banned the teaching of “Critical Race Theory” in the federal government.
- Withdrew from Iran nuclear deal.
