Yes, Trump did promise to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border during his 2016 campaign. While not fully realized, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection, by the end of his term, over 450 miles of new wall system had been built. However, it's worth noting that a physical barrier alone may not solve the complex issue of immigration.

As for the withdrawal from Afghanistan, it was indeed Trump's administration that initiated peace talks and set the withdrawal date, which Biden later followed through on. This does highlight the continuity of certain foreign policies across presidencies.

Now, considering these points, how do you think future administrations could better approach campaign promises, especially those related to complex issues such as immigration and foreign policy?
