Donald Trump's approval rating stands at a historically low 41%, the lowest after 100 days in office since Dwight Eisenhower. His immigration policies, while successful in reducing border crossings, have caused widespread alarm due to their harshness, as evidenced by the deportation of American children.
The administration's strong stance on immigration, though claiming success in reducing illegal crossings, has faced criticism over its methods. Reports of the deportation of American children with their mothers, including one with cancer, sparked outrage, despite Secretary of State Marco Rubio's attempts to clarify the situation.
Beyond immigration, Trump's policies have created domestic and international unease. High prices and uncertainty caused by his tariff policies have led to gloomy consumer sentiment and recession forecasts. His foreign policy actions, including threats to take Greenland and insults towards Canada, have created friction internationally.
Despite initial promises and bold proclamations, many of Trump's ambitious plans remain unfulfilled. While his potential to reshape the domestic and international agenda still exists, his capricious nature and lack of clear direction leave his future actions uncertain. An image of Trump and Zelensky at Pope Francis's funeral, depicting a seeming confession between the two, symbolizes the unpredictable nature of Trump's leadership.
