Canada Global (Web News) US President Donald Trump’s first 100 days will be completed on April 30, and so far President Trump has taken presidential powers to new heights.
President Trump, 78, said at an event that his second term is stronger than his first. “When I say ‘do it,’ it gets done.” Donald Trump defended his tariff policy and vowed to fulfill his America First agenda. The US president called his direction correct, saying he was achieving his goals with great success. However, his critics have called the first 100 days of his administration an “authoritarian regime” and called his policies chaotic. Political historian Matt Dalke says Trump’s second term is more authoritarian than ever. He added that Donald Trump portrays himself as the protagonist of a “reality show” by facing questions from reporters and signing executive orders in the Oval Office every day.
Trump’s critics also say that the new president’s second term is providing access to specific and favored news outlets in the White House. In addition, President Trump has also been aggressive with the judiciary, where he has tied several law firms involved in past cases to harsh contracts. Political analysts say Trump’s approval rating after his first 100 days is the lowest of any president since World War II, except for his own first term. “We’re all scared,” said Republican Senator Lisa Murkowski, while Professor Barbara Trish said, “The president is making decisions without regard for constitutional restrictions.” Critics also say President Trump has signaled an increase in US influence by copying Russia’s expansionist ambitions and making territorial claims in Greenland, Panama and Canada.
