**Trump Marks 100 Days of Second Term with Bold Claims and Attacks on Critics**

*President showcases achievements while attacking opponents and addressing economic issues during Michigan rally.*


*In a high-energy speech, Donald Trump celebrated the first 100 days of his second term, focusing on his administration's accomplishments and fiercely criticizing political adversaries, including Joe Biden and the Federal Reserve.*



US President Donald Trump marked the significant milestone of his second term's first 100 days with a lively campaign-style rally in Warren, Michigan, drawing attention to what he described as a "revolution of common sense" among his administration's achievements. Declaring himself a catalyst for "profound change," Trump expressed his intent to reshape the country's trajectory.

Addressing an enthusiastic crowd, he reveled in the significant drop in illegal migration across the U.S. border, yet detracted from a persistent economic vulnerability tied to his ongoing international trade conflicts. "We've just gotten started, you haven't seen anything yet," he proclaimed, utilizing the backdrop of the automotive industry to assert that car manufacturers were eager to establish new operations in Michigan.

However, in a surprising shift, Trump announced a modification to a crucial part of his economic strategy – tariffs on imports of foreign automobiles and parts. This decision followed warnings from U.S. automakers about the potential spike in costs for consumers.

While Trump dismissed as "fake" the opinion polls showing a decline in his popularity, reports from Gallup highlighted that he is the first post-World War II president to maintain less than 50% approval after 100 days, currently sitting at 44%. Nevertheless, a solid majority of Republican supporters continue to rally behind him, despite the Democratic National Committee (DNC) labeling his initial months as a “colossal failure.”

Emphasizing his penchant for colorful rhetoric, Trump conducted an impromptu audience poll, asking attendees for their favorite nicknames for Biden. He also mocked his predecessor's cognitive abilities and physical appearance, while stubbornly reiterating claims of having been the true victor of the 2020 election.

Criticism soon turned to Jerome Powell, the chair of the Federal Reserve, with Trump claiming inadequate performance. As part of his immigration agenda, he celebrated a dramatic reduction in border encounters, citing a decrease from 140,000 to just over 7,000. However, the pace of deportations thus far has lagged behind previous fiscal years.

Halfway through his remarks, Trump screened a video of deportees being sent to a prison in El Salvador, and he made an unverified claim regarding a drastic drop in egg prices, which contradicts recent government data.

Despite reports of declining inflation and energy costs since his inauguration, economic realities such as increasing unemployment and declining stock market confidence circle around the administration. Local business owner Joe DeMonaco voiced concern over fluctuating import taxes' potential effects on consumer prices.

In contrast, staunch supporters like Teresa Breckinridge expressed unwavering confidence, highlighting Trump's perceived responsiveness to public concerns. "He's handling things wherever he can," Breckinridge asserted, optimistic that the tariffs would ultimately prove beneficial.

As Trump continues to navigate the complexities of his presidency, the implications of these initial 100 days remain critical, with signs of both fervent support and rising challenges evident in the political landscape.
