Trump’s First 100 Days Back in Office: What’s Happened So Far
President Donald Trump returned to the White House in January 2025. In his first 100 days, he has made big changes—some people love them, others are worried.
1. Lots of Executive Orders
Trump signed over 140 executive orders—more than any recent president this fast. These orders affect things like immigration, taxes, and how the government runs. One of his biggest moves was creating a new agency to cut costs, led by Elon Musk, but it hasn’t saved as much money as promised.
2. Tough on Immigration
Trump brought back strict rules at the border. Illegal crossings have gone down. A new law, the Laken Riley Act, says certain immigrants who are charged with crimes must be locked up. Supporters say this keeps Americans safe; critics call it unfair.
3. Changes to the Economy
Trump has added tariffs (taxes on goods from other countries), especially from China. He says this helps U.S. businesses. So far, over 300,000 new jobs have been created—many in the private sector. But prices on some goods may go up because of the tariffs.
4. Cultural Shifts
Trump is removing diversity programs from government offices. He says they are unnecessary and wasteful. Some people support this; others say it hurts fairness and inclusion. He’s also cracking down on antisemitism on college campuses.
5. Foreign Policy
Trump is focusing more on “America First” and less on working with other countries. He supports Israel strongly, but relationships with Russia and Ukraine are complicated. He also pulled the U.S. out of the Paris Climate Agreement again, saying it hurts American jobs.
6. What Do People Think?
Americans are split. Supporters say Trump is doing exactly what he promised: acting fast and putting America first. Critics say he’s using too much power and changing the country in dangerous ways.
Bottom Line:
Trump’s first 100 days have been fast-paced and full of big decisions.
