Donald Trump's migration policy, during his presidency (2017-2021), was characterized by several key initiatives and changes aimed at reducing both legal and illegal immigration to the United States. Some of the most notable aspects of his policy include: 1. **Border Wall**: Trump made the construction of a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border a central promise of his campaign. Although a full wall was not completed, his administration constructed several hundred miles of barriers and fencing. 2. **Zero Tolerance Policy**: This policy led to the separation of thousands of children from their parents at the U.S.-Mexico border. It was widely criticized, leading to significant backlash and the eventual reversal of the family separation aspect of the policy. 3. **Muslim Ban**: Trump issued executive orders to ban entry to the U.S. from several predominantly Muslim countries, which was challenged in courts. A version of this ban was eventually upheld by the Supreme Court in 201...

America's policy against its rival.

The deteriorating relationship between the United States and China in recent years has been driven by a combination of economic, political, and strategic factors. Here are the main causes of the strained relationship: ### 1. **Trade and Economic Tensions**:    - **Trade Imbalances**: One of the primary drivers of tension has been the large trade deficit between the U.S. and China. The U.S. has long accused China of engaging in unfair trade practices, such as currency manipulation, intellectual property theft, and forced technology transfers, which have contributed to this imbalance.    - **Tariffs and Trade War**: Under President Trump, the U.S. launched a trade war against China, imposing tariffs on hundreds of billions of dollars’ worth of Chinese goods. China retaliated with its own tariffs on U.S. products. The trade war led to increased tensions and contributed to the deterioration of bilateral relations.    - **Supply Chain Security**: The U.S. has ex...
