Trump’s second administration passes 100 days milestone

President Donald Trump is now approaching the end of his first 100 days in his second term in the White House. Throughout this period, Trump has implemented several key policies and initiatives that have garnered both praise and criticism.

One of the main highlights of Trump’s first 100 days has been his aggressive stance on trade with China. Trump imposed harsh tariffs on Chinese imports, accusing the country of engaging in unfair trade practices that have harmed the U.S. economy. The administration also unveiled plans to dismantle organizations like the Education Department, with the goal of returning education authority to the states and reducing federal government influence over education.

Another significant development during Trump’s first 100 days has been the administration’s efforts to crack down on border security and implement a mass deportation initiative. Border crossings have reportedly decreased by 96% under the Trump administration, and the White House has deported over 100,000 illegal immigrants in 2025. However, there have been some controversies surrounding the deportations, including a case involving an El Salvador native who was deported by mistake but was later identified as a member of the MS-13 gang.

In addition to these initiatives, Trump has signed over 140 executive orders during his first 100 days in office, a significant increase from the 33 he signed during the first 100 days of his first term. These executive orders have covered a wide range of issues, from trade and education to immigration and national security.

One of Trump’s key campaign promises was to end the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and he has made progress on this front during his first 100 days in office. Trump has hosted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy at the White House and has expressed his desire to end the war in the next two weeks.

Overall, Trump’s first 100 days in his second term have been marked by bold and controversial actions on a variety of fronts. From trade and immigration to education and foreign policy, the Trump administration has made significant changes that will have lasting impacts on the country. As Trump approaches the end of this milestone period, it remains to be seen what the rest of his term will hold.
