Donald Trump's Foreign Policies
In the realm of foreign policy, Donald Trump's presidency witnessed a shift in the U.S. approach to international relations.

He also imposed tariffs on goods imported from China, escalating tensions between the two countries and sparking a trade war.

Trump also pursued a "zero-tolerance" policy at the U.S.-Mexico border, leading to the separation of thousands of migrant families.
These policies generated controversy and legal challenges, raising concerns about human rights and due process.
Donald Trump's Environmental Policies
Environmental protection took a backseat during Donald Trump's presidency. He rolled back or weakened regulations on air and water pollution, and withdrew the U.S. from the Paris Climate Accord.
These actions were met with criticism from environmental groups and scientists, who raised concerns about the potential impact on public health and climate change.
Trump's environmental policies were often driven by his skepticism of climate science and his commitment to promoting fossil fuel industries.
