Trump celebrates tumultuous 100 days in office

Donald Trump on Tuesday is celebrating the first 100 days of what is already one of the most radical and impactful presidencies in US history, as polls show Americans are becoming disenchanted with the economic and political tumult.

The 47th president will mark the milestone in trademark style, seeking to rejuvenate his base with a rally in the battleground state of Michigan that swung his way in November as he soundly defeated Kamala Harris.

Trump has shaken up the United States like few presidents before him.

His billionaire backer Elon Musk has led the decimation of the federal workforce, and the president himself has reshaped relations with the world by slapping sweeping tariffs, hard-pressing allies and eliminating the vast majority of foreign aid.

Polls show Trump has quickly seen the honeymoon that Americans historically accord presidents at the start of their terms evaporate.

A poll published Sunday by The Washington Post and ABC News found that only 39 percent of Americans approve of how Trump is conducting his presidency.

The poll showed net disapproval even on what was his most popular issue -- his aggressive crackdown on immigration -- as controversy swirls over deportations without due process.

In recent times all presidents have managed 50 percent support 100 days into their terms except Bill Clinton in 1993, who was at 49 percent, according to the Pew Research Center.

Trump angrily dismissed the polls, writing on his Truth Social platform that they are "fake" and saying: "We are doing GREAT, better than ever before."
