Trumps 100 days: master of the self -celebration or the economic crisis?
As part of his enthusiasm for the first 100 days of his second term, US President Donald Trump celebrated his success under the motto "100 Days of Greatness". He addressed the current economic situation of the United States, which, however, is characterized by numerous challenges. Antonia Beckermann and Wim Orth report in a podcast in the world about the discussions with the US correspondent Stefanie Bolzen and illuminate Trump's optimistic rhetoric in view of a shrinking gross domestic product and the warnings of economists that fear a threatening recession.

Despite this worrying economic reality, Trump promises an early economic boom. Particularly noteworthy should be noted that numerous automobile manufacturers will return to the Rust Belt, supported by an aggressive tax and customs policy. However, economic analysts are skeptical about Trump's forecast, since they indicate the complex supply chains and the uncertainties by the existing punitive tariffs that could stand in the way of reviving the industries. While tech companies invest in new industries, the reality in the old factories looks different. Welt
reactions to Trump's politics
The economic situation was also burdened by Trump's aggressive customs policy, which causes confusion in the markets. Customs, such as those on European steel and aluminum imports, were enacted and withdrawn some time later. This uncertainty has led to a noticeable decline in consumer mood, which has reached the lowest level since June 2024. The capital market expert Jürgen Molnar notes that the markets cannot benefit from a possible peace in Ukraine, which reinforces the already tense economic conditions. ZDF
The reactions to Trump's politics are mixed. Many Americans who have shares in the stock market are concerned about what could result in a negative market reaction should the economic forecasts come true. The stock market has already shown signs of an impending economic crash, which also affects the US exchanges that have experienced a sale. ZDF
Legal challenges and migration policy
In addition to economic questions, Trump is also under legal pressure. He has released numerous state employees and political opponents and is very resistant to court judgments about the returns of deported migrants. Despite the corresponding court resolutions, he refuses to return and refers to the responsibility of the President, which in his opinion weighs more difficult as legal obligations. This raises questions about the power of the President and whether and how it can be brought to compliance with laws, which also presents the dishes up to the Supreme Court. WeltIn migration policy, Trump's approach has already had an impact: The number of illegal border crossings has decreased. Nevertheless, there are persistent problems with overcrowded deportation centers and a lack of capacity for the mass -decayed reports announced by Trump. Welt
