Trump’s Election Promises
In his 2024 campaign, Donald Trump sought to attract conservatives and opponents of “woke culture” through promises and policies aligned with these trends.
Trump’s Position on “woke culture”:
Trump is a vocal critic of what he calls “woke culture,” portraying it as a threat to traditional American values and freedom of expression. His promises in this regard focus on:
Combating “woke culture” in education:
He pledged to end what he sees as “woke indoctrination” in schools and universities, including critical race theory and issues related to sexual identity.
Rejecting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Policies:
The Trump campaign pledged to eliminate diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies in both the public and private sectors, arguing that they discriminate against whites and undermine meritocracy. Targeting the “Deep State”: Trump pledges to “destroy the deep state” in the federal government, viewing this “deep state” as part of the “woke” and liberal trends seeking to undermine America.
Promoting “Common Sense” and Traditional Values:
Trump seeks to present himself as a defender of traditional values and “common sense” against what he considers the “madness” and “recklessness” of the “woke culture.”
Freedom of Expression:
Trump supports what he calls “freedom of expression” in the face of what he sees as the “woke culture’s” “suppression” of those who oppose its views.
Note:
Trump’s promises to conservatives and non-woke voters aim to restore what he sees as a “great America” by emphasizing economic and military strength, the rule of law, secure borders, and traditional cultural values, while combating what he sees as the excesses of liberal trends and the “woke culture.”
