Trump Achieves Record Approval Rating

Donald Trump’s presidency began with turbulence, marked by widespread government layoffs, soaring egg prices, market instability, and intensifying global trade disputes. Yet, despite the unrest, his approval ratings held steady during his first month in office.

Seeking to reduce trade deficits and support U.S. industries, Trump announced a 25% tariff on steel and aluminum. The move quickly provoked retaliation, with Canada and European nations responding by placing billions in tariffs on American goods.

In a speech to Congress, Trump admitted his administration’s launch had been “swift and unrelenting,” framing the pace as intentional and necessary.

He defended a range of controversial policies, insisting they were vital to protecting American workers and restoring economic strength.

Among the initiatives highlighted were his strict immigration and border control measures, which had already sparked national debate.

Trump also pointed to his aggressive tariff policies targeting Canada and Mexico as part of his broader trade agenda.

Additionally, he emphasized sweeping government cuts, mass firings, and the dismantling of diversity and “wokeness” programs in schools and workplaces as key pillars of his vision.
