What would Trump’s America look like

Mrs Martinez and Mrs Haley have both been critical of Mr Trump, though, and indicated they are not interested in the vice presidency. Mr Portman is currently ruing for re-election, and said on Wednesday that he would not accept the nomination.

While they could well reverse course, Mr Trump may have to seek alteatives. They could include a former rival like Chris Christie, a loyal Trump surrogate but another brash Northeasteer, or Marco Rubio, who would offer generational, geographic and racial diversity but may still be smarting from Mr Trump’s “Little Marco” attacks.

Will Muslims be baed?

Yes. It won’t happen on day one but Mr Trump has said his temporary ban on foreign Muslims entering the United States will be in place by the end of his first 100 days.

Mr Trump said he would “make big changes quickly”. He told the New York Times: “I know everyone won’t like everything I do but I’m not ruing to be everyone’s favourite president.”

What about the wall?

It’s another priority. Mr Trump’s aim is to have a design for the wall fully completed in the first 100 days and then building will start.

Very early on he intends to call in representatives of the Mexican govement and begin bilateral talks. He believes using the Oval Office as an intimidating venue to negotiate will help him convince Mexico that they should pay for the wall.

He will threaten to block Mexican immigrants in the US from sending money home to their families unless Mexico agrees to assume the building costs, which could be up to $10 billion.
