This is a selection of Trump's campaign promises in 2016.

Control illegal border crossings *​
America First foreign policy ✔​
Reduce regulations ✔​
Appoint constructionist Judges ✔​
Trade agreements ✔​
Repeal/replace ACA *​
Tax reform ✔​
Job creation ✔​
Economic Growth *​
Drain the Swamp​

To a large extent, this administration looks like more of the same. Tax policy will still be on the list but perhaps a lower priority. Energy production is likely to replace deregulation.

This is how I would make the top 10
  1. Control illegal border crossings
  2. America First foreign policy
  3. Trade agreements
  4. Boost energy production
  5. Repeal/replace ACA
  6. Job creation
  7. Economic Growth
  8. Tax reform
  9. Appoint constructionist Judges
  10. Drain the Swamp


 
Trump is a moderate and despite the left's whining Project 2025 reflects a moderate conservative viewpoint too.

This is Trump's agenda...

No - Trump is no a moderate. Trump is an extremist by any measure, and his own quotes reveal precisely that.
 
You say that he's not but his policies say that he is.
No, they don't.
I'm going with policies ...
... instead of going with the policies he attempted to implement, which expose his extremist inclinations.
He's moderate by most measures.
No - he was heavily constrained during his first term. Project 2025, and his own Supreme Court, have removed those constraints.
His verbiage is sometimes extreme.
His verbiage is always extreme, because he is extreme.

His insults are extreme,
his threats are extreme,
his intentions are extreme,
his racism is extreme,
his xenophobia is extreme,
his misogyny is extreme,
his ignorance is extreme,
his general over abundance of psychopathologies, including acute narcissism, is extreme,
his pettiness is extreme,
his over-sensitivity is extreme,
his .... shall I go on? I can .... perhaps for hours.

his thirst for revenge is extreme,
his admiration, adoration and envy for authoritarian foreign dictators and their power is extreme,
his desperate need for praise is extreme,
his ability to be manipulated by simple flattery is extreme,
his greed is extreme,
his insecurities are extreme,
his total disdain for the law, the Constitution, and his willingness to repeatedly engage in Contempt of Court, and Obstruction of Justice is extreme,
his ..... well, ...

Forgive me for taking your post seriously and assuming you actually didn't know how extreme Trump is. I suspect you really do, and his extremism accounts for your infatuation with him.

Measure by ones actions, not what you hear through the liberal media.

He's a transactionalist....whatever gets him what he personally wants.

There is no such thing as "liberal media". There is only corporate media, directed by corporate CEOs, run by corporate bureaucrats, beholden to corporate profits, paid for by corporate advertisers.

I get you.

Trump is extreme because you don't like him.

Results are the usual standard, but you be you.

There is no such thing as "liberal media".
Such obviously false statements hurt your credibility.

There is a thread of reality here. CNN forced Jeff Zucker out for being too anti-Trump and then had to fire Licht a year later

These look about as deep as the annual sales goals I used to submit to my boss:
  • Increase sales by XXX%
  • Make XXX the number one brand in the marketplace
  • Increase business in secondary markets to keep pace with increased capacity
  • Lower acquisition costs by sourcing from strategic markets
  • Target key industry players with high propensity for growth
  • Blah, blah, blah
