How does Trump the president fare v Trump the candidate?

Delivery still pending on many pledges made during election campaign

President Donald Trump promised to start work on a host of major reforms “immediately” upon taking office.

The billionaire Republican set out a 100-day action plan he called his “contract with the American people”, in which he made pledges on issues from immigration to jobs.

So how has President Trump matched up to candidate Trump?

The Wall – Progress has stalled, with Mexico refusing to entertain the idea of paying for the wall, forcing Mr Trump to propose immediate budget cuts of 18 billion dollars (£14 billion) from US programmes like medical research, infrastructure and community grants and the allocation of $1.4bn (£1.1bn) for a down payment on the border barrier.

The spending plans face strong resistance from Democrats as they go before Congress in a budget vote which could lead to a government shutdown on the president’s 100th day.

Immigration – Just seven days into his tenure, he issued an executive order which barred indefinitely those fleeing from Syria and imposed a 90-day ban on entry to the US for people from seven Muslim-majority nations.

But the president appeared not to have anticipated resistance from the judiciary, with judges blocking both the initial and a revised travel ban, leaving this cornerstone pledge snarled up in a legal fight.

Islamic State (IS) – During the campaign he was confident he could “fix it fast” and promised in his inaugural address to “eradicate completely from the face of the Earth” radical Islamic terrorism.

This was unlikely to be achieved inside the president’s first 100 days.

Russia – Mr Trump’s administration has been plagued with allegations of Russian interference and hacking during the election campaign, as well as an FBI probe into the president’s associates’ alleged improper ties with the country.

And Mr Putin’s refusal to abandon Syrian president Bashar Assad over a chemical weapons attack on civilians has seen Mr Trump admit relations are at an “all-time low”.

Obamacare – Just a week before the election in November, Mr Trump vowed to “immediately repeal and replace Obamacare” – his predecessor’s landmark healthcare reform.

But his first major piece of legislation had to be withdrawn after House Republican leaders failed to win enough support to put it to a vote.

In all, his contract made 38 promises setting out his immediate and short-term priorities once in office and so far, according to the Associated Press, he has accomplished 10.
