From DOGE cuts to tariffs, see Trump's first 100 days by the numbers
- President Donald Trump returned to office in early 2025 and marked his first 100 days with a record pace of signing executive orders from Washington, D.C., to Florida weekends at Mar-a-Lago.
- Trump’s aggressive executive actions stem from Congress’ persistent partisanship and legislative gridlock, prompting him to rely heavily on executive orders for policy implementation.
- His administration focused on restricting transgender rights, immigration enforcement, trade tariffs, climate rollback, and reshaping education through executive orders and strict policies.
- By April 23, Trump had signed 137 executive orders, with 19 challenged legally and 11 blocked, while his policies caused an 80% drop in illegal border crossings and wiped $2.5 trillion off stock markets.
- These developments reflect a deeply polarized political climate where Trump is expanding presidential power amid legal challenges and mixed public approval, stirring national debate on constitutional limits.
