Now that Trump has left office, it is time to assess his legacy. What did he accomplish? What were his failures? And what will be his lasting impact on American politics and society?
Trump's Accomplishments
Trump's supporters point to a number of accomplishments during his presidency. These include:
* The passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, which lowered taxes for businesses and individuals. * The appointment of conservative judges to the Supreme Court and other federal courts, which will have a lasting impact on American law. * The withdrawal of the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a trade deal that Trump believed was unfair to American workers. * The renegotiation of the North American Free Trade Agreement, which Trump claimed would be more beneficial to the United States. * The imposition of tariffs on goods from China, in an effort to reduce the trade deficit.
Trump's supporters also argue that he made America safer by taking a tough stance on immigration and terrorism. They point to the construction of a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border, the travel ban on citizens from several Muslim-majority countries, and the killing of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as evidence of his commitment to national security.
Trump's Failures
Trump's detractors argue that his presidency was a failure. They point to the following:
* The rise of the national debt, which increased by over $7 trillion during Trump's presidency. * The widening of the trade deficit, which reached a record high of $621 billion in 2020. * The failure to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, as Trump had promised to do. * The botched withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan, which led to the Taliban's takeover of the country. * The impeachment of Trump by the House of Representatives, for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress.
Trump's detractors also argue that he made America less safe by alienating allies, cozying up to dictators, and withdrawing from international agreements. They point to the withdrawal of the United States from the Paris Climate Accord, the Iran nuclear deal, and the World Health Organization as evidence of his isolationist foreign policy.
Trump's Legacy
Trump's legacy is likely to be debated for years to come. His supporters will argue that he was a successful president who made America great again. His detractors will argue that he was a dangerous demagogue who damaged American democracy.
Only time will tell what Trump's lasting impact will be. But there is no doubt that his presidency was one of the most consequential in American history.
