THE FIRST 100 DAYS

Saturday marked the 100th day since the inauguration of Donald Trump as president of the United States. During that time, Trump has seen his share of ups and downs on a host of domestic and foreign policy issues, from illegal immigration to Syria, taxes to China and everything in between. He won confirmation of a conservative Supreme Court justice, Neil Gorsuch. He withdrew from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a sweeping planned trade deal with 12 Pacific Rim countries. And he revived construction of the contentious Keystone XL and Dakota Access oil pipelines. But he also failed to persuade his fellow Republicans to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. He tried to halt travel to the U.S. by citizens of six majority-Muslim nations but was stopped again and again by the courts. And he was forced to fire national security adviser, Michael Flynn, for lying to the vice president. Trump has engaged in a flurry of activity from the first day — though some people argue that some of the moves have been more cosmetic than substantive — signing 28 bills into law, issuing 24 executive orders and ordering at least 17 studies on everything from election fraud to the Iran nuclear deal. TrumpSyria after launched Presidenta military Bashar strike Assadin used chemical weapons that killed dozens of civilians. He dropped the most powerful non-nuclear bomb in the U.S. arsenal on the Islamic State in Afghanistan. He’s stepped up deportations, seen a decrease in border crossings and tried to boost military spending.
