Trump Responds to Voters’ Regrets with Blunt Remarks on Economic
As President Donald Trump marks 100 days into his second term, he remains defiant, defending his economic and immigration policies despite low approval ratings and voter frustration. Trump dismissed criticism of his tariffs on Chinese imports, claiming they are necessary to address unfair trade, though critics point to rising consumer prices and supply chain issues. He argued that falling gas and egg prices prove his policies’ success, though experts question these claims.
Trump also defended his immigration stance, including the “Remain in Mexico” policy, despite criticism over migrant safety. On foreign policy, he emphasized his personal diplomacy with leaders like Kim Jong Un and claimed he could end the Ukraine war through negotiation, but offered no specifics.
With only 41% of Americans approving of his presidency, Trump dismissed the polls as “fake,” asserting he still has strong base support. The challenges of economic strain, foreign tensions, and domestic division loom as he moves forward in his second term.
