#Trump100Days Donald Trump's 100-day mark in his presidency has been a significant milestone, symbolizing the early success of his administration. Here's a breakdown of his first 100 days in his second term, which concluded on April 30, 2025 ¹:
- *Key Actions*: Trump signed 144 executive orders, 42 proclamations, and 42 memorandums. Some notable actions include the Laken Riley Act and a continuing appropriations act.
- *Agenda 47*: Trump's primary goal for his first 100 days was to implement his Agenda 47 policy platform, reverse many of Biden's executive actions, and resume where he left off after his first term.
- *Mass Deportations and Border Control*: On his first day in office, Trump began mass deportation of illegal immigrants and closed the US-Mexico border.
- *Approval Ratings*: By the end of his first 100 days, Trump's approval ratings showed a net negative, with a Fox News poll indicating a 44% job approval rating.
- *Legal Challenges*: Several of Trump's executive orders faced immediate legal challenges, testing the limits of executive authority.
- *Policy Initiatives*: Trump's administration has been working on key policy initiatives, including securing trade deals and ending wars in Ukraine and Gaza. However, federal courts have delayed some of these actions.
It's worth noting that the first 100 days of a presidency are often seen as a benchmark for measuring early success, a tradition that started with Franklin D. Roosevelt's significant policy reforms during the Great Depression ¹ ².
