While Real estate magnate Donald J. Trump is celebrating his election as the next president of the United States, I couldn’t help but ponder on the  publication by IBT a few hours ago on some of his proposed policies and opinion on several contentious issues which includes more jobs and better international trade deals that support American workers all of which must have inspired voters across the country.

Below are 50 of the campaign promises Trump and his surrogates made along the 2016 presidential campaign trail, via various interviews with the media, campaign rallies and his campaign website:

50.     The Trump administration will invest in a “serious missile defense system” to protect from terror.

Now, it is hoped that as Trump prepares to announce cabinet members, advisors and those who will help him transition from the private to public sector, it’s up to him and his future administration to put his proposed agenda into effect as that is what voters will be looking forward to. They expect the business billionaire to ensure he fulfills the promises he made along the campaign trail. His views on several key issues, from immigration reform to combating terrorism domestically and abroad, greatly contradicted his rival, Democratic nominee and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, as well as the current White House administration under President Barack Obama.
