Ending illegal immigration: pretty standard for any country; make it so non-citizens don't gain access to social programs provided by taxpayers and the government: pretty standard; deporting illegal immigrants who are a part of gangs: deporting illegal immigrants who break the law is also pretty standard for most countries; End sanctuary cities (who protect criminal illegal immigrants that put other's lives in danger): sounds good; Ending American corporations from taking advantage of illegal immigrants by underpaying them to replace Citizen labor: Sounds like something most people can get on board with; Require new immigrants to be able to support themselves financially, so new immigrants don't end up becoming dependent on government welfare or go homeless.
All of these don't impact legal immigration outside of making sure they don't come here to depend on the government and don't go homeless here. These are all things that even Bernie Sanders seemed to tout until quite recently.
I'm pretty sure he wants to teach American exceptionalism as a contrast to a lot of the history in the country that is negative, while also teaching the negative things we have done. Pretty sure he's just patriotic and wants people to know that despite our past this is a pretty great country.
I do support police reform rather than that making it harder to charge bad cops, but I haven't seen anything saying they'll make it harder to charge bad cops so if you wanna provide sources I'm open to disagree with Trump on it. Defunding the police is a bad idea though and the main thing I see is "fully funding them and hiring more".
You can disagree with it but

Also Trump does not control the police that would be mayors.
All right lets go
Sanctuary cities are literally designed to help people who are escaping from poor economies, dangerous countries or war zones have a place of refuge, you are arguing here that immigrants are dangerous because they are not from America. If you want to stop crime, instead of erasing all options that illegal immigrants have from being a positive influence to society, why not just help support them? You block immigrants from getting access to basic human necessities, forcing them into a life of crime which then gives you a legitimate reason for kicking people out.
Now look here
Ending American corporations from taking advantage of illegal immigrants by underpaying them to replace Citizen labor: Sounds like something most people can get on board with
Trump didnt say Illegal Immigrants. He said Foreign workers. As shown here in his 50 point plan. This point is the only point in which Trump specified that not only illegal immigrants, but hard working LEGAL immigrants who simply want to better themselves as well.
Foreign Workers as in people who migrated into the country on a work visa to provide perfectly legal work. Trump wants that to stop.
So to list it out, Trump wants to a)
Prevent anyone who isn't a US citizen regardless of legal immigration status to be able to work in America.
b) Prevent illegal immigrants from accessing social aide and a support system that would be able to help get these people off their feet so they can in return help contribute to society.
c) Requiring that all immigrants have the ability to be able to financially support themselves to live here......even though they now won't be able to get jobs nor have access to social aide????
c) Remove cities and areas of safety for people who immigrate here, therefore removing any and all options for immigrants to be able to support themselves, therefore forcing them to either leave and go back to where they are leaving from in the first place, or turn to a life of crime.
Then finally D) Deport all non US citizen criminals.
Its a 4 point plan to rid the country to immigrants and prevent them from wanting to come there. That isn't a leap in logic. Its not twisting Trumps own words. Its just the logical conclusion to the policies that Trump plans to put in place. Rid the country of immigrants.
Now in regards to American Exceptionalism, I am hoping that you are simply ignorant to its actual meaning in your defending of it. AE (shorting it to that from now) isn't teaching kids that being an American is good. That's national pride. Patriotism is pretty cringey but not inherently harmful. AE is the theory in which describes that America is removed from the history of the world, and that it has lived its own special history, and that its the duty of Americans to transform and "save" the world and that this history and duty to the world makes being an American superior to anyone else. To put it bluntly, its rhetoric that Americans wank themselves off to feeling that they are the best in the world simply by by being born in America, and that they have NO CHOICE but to help improve the world, by making it MORE American. Now, if you don't see the problems with raising children on the belief that they are better than the world just because they were born somewhere, I don't know what to tell you. But I do know of a regime that was build upon telling its citizens that they are superior to others just by the nature of their birth, that they should spread such belief across the world, while simultaneously extraditing anyone that that didn't fit with that particular status quo.
Yes if it wasn't clear I am stating that Trump is a fascist.
