Donald Trump began with an optimistic, shining-city-upon-a-hill moment. He had gone to Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, to lay out the policy proposals of his presidency and didn’t shy away from the symbolism of the location. “It is my privilege to be here in Gettysburg, hallowed ground where so many lives were given in service to freedom—amazing place,” Trump said. “President Lincoln served in a time of division like we’ve never seen before. It is my hope that we can look at his example to heal the divisions we are living through right now. We are a very divided nation.”
He then went on to describe himself as the reluctant white knight that the country needed. “I’ve never wanted to be a politician—believe me,” Trump said. “But when I saw the trouble our country was in I knew I couldn’t stand by and watch any longer.”
And then, of course, Trump went on to divide the nation even further, complaining of a “totally rigged and broken” system in which his opponent shouldn’t have even been allowed to run because she broke “so many laws on so many different occasions.” He complained about the “dishonest” media and how he had been covered throughout the campaign. Worst of all was his insistence on casting doubts about the U.S. democratic process, saying massive fraud on Election Day was a real possibility because the election is “rigged” against him.

And what did Trump propose? Pretty much the same stuff he’s been proposing for months. There were no new major policy initiatives, although, to be fair, it was the first time they were all listed in one speech and rattled off. Oh, and the difference this time is that it was billed as a “contract with the American voter.”
So what were his main ideas?

He also said he would work with Congress on several issues, including repealing Obamacare and building the wall with the understanding that “Mexico will be reimbursing the United States for the full cost.”
