Trump's 100 Days in Office Mark Rolling Impact on Economy, Approval Ratings

President Donald Trump marked the first 100 days of his second term with a rally in Michigan, highlighting a period characterized by significant economic and political volatility. His administration has enacted sweeping tariffs, frozen or disrupted substantial federal funds, and governed largely through executive orders rather than legislation. Public opinion has soured, with polls from NBC News and CBS reporting majority disapproval and widespread concerns about his handling of the economy, even among independents. Trump’s aggressive actions on immigration, trade, and federal spending have sparked legal challenges and criticism from civil liberties groups, who accuse him of undermining constitutional rights and key social programs. Despite these controversies and the absence of a traditional 'honeymoon' period, Trump and his supporters remain defiant, insisting that his changes are revitalizing the country. The administration’s first 100 days have been widely described as tumultuous and divisive, with both domestic and international repercussions.
