As Donald Trump returns to power, the first 100 days of his second term reveal a presidency marked by bold action, deep controversy, and sharp political division. From record-breaking executive orders to market chaos, here’s what stands out so far.

1. Executive Orders at Unprecedented Levels

Trump has signed over 140 executive orders since January, outpacing all modern presidents. These directives include dismantling federal departments and invoking wartime laws for immigration enforcement.

2. Over 200 Lawsuits Filed Against His Administration

The aggressive use of executive power has sparked legal backlash, with lawsuits challenging the legality and constitutionality of many of his actions.

3. Lowest 100-Day Approval Rating in 80 Years

Only 39% of Americans approve of Trump’s performance, while 55% disapprove, citing concerns on immigration, economic management, and global diplomacy.

4. Markets Rattled by ‘Liberation Day’ Tariffs

Trump’s tariffs have shaken investor confidence, triggering the largest early-term drop in U.S. stock market performance in two decades.

5. Senate Pushes Through Controversial Appointments

More than 50 appointees have been confirmed by the GOP-controlled Senate, including Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as Health Secretary and Pete Hegseth as Defense Secretary.

6. A Record $239M Raised for Inauguration

Trump shattered fundraising records with his 2025 inauguration, backed by donors with federal court interests including Amazon, Meta, and Nvidia.

7. Truth Social Becomes His Primary Platform

With over 1,700 posts in 100 days, Trump is using Truth Social—his own network—as a megaphone, often averaging 17 posts per day.

8. Bold and Bizarre Foreign Policy Moves

From proposing U.S. control over Gaza to suggesting Canada as the 51st state, Trump’s foreign ambitions have raised eyebrows globally.

9. Plummeting International Tourism

International visits to the U.S. are down sharply, driven by strict immigration policies, global uncertainty, and trade war anxieties.

10. Nearly Every Weekend Spent on the Golf Course

Despite earlier criticism of Obama, Trump continues to spend weekends golfing—a stark contrast to his 2016 campaign promise to work tirelessly for Americans.

Conclusion

Trump’s first 100 days of his second term have been anything but quiet. Whether praised or criticized, his administration has reshaped the American political landscape in record time—and there’s much more to come.
