Donald Trump celebrates for the “most successful 100 days of all time” – with customs gifts for car manufacturers, sharp attacks on critics and well -known slogans.

US President Donald Trump celebrated his first 100 days in office with an aggressive rally. The months since the beginning of his second term in January were the “most successful first 100 days of a government in the history of our country,” said the Republican of followers in the city of Warren in the state of Michigan.

He had reduced inflation, fight the “illegal immigration” in an unprecedented way and proceed against “Woke” ideologies – for example against men who gave themselves out as women. Unfortunately, he was repeatedly hindered by courts, the president complained. “We recover our country from a sick political class that has become rich to sell and bleed America. We no longer allow something like that.”

The US President promised a brilliant future to the Auto industry to the United States. This was due to his customs and tax policy, said the 78-year-old in his speech. Previously, the Republican had signed a decree on customs make -up for car manufacturers.

Thanks to its tariffs and the planned tax reliefs, companies from all over the world come to the USA and opened new works, Trump said. The customs make -ups should also contribute to this. Companies that produce in the United States can therefore use reduced surcharges for importing parts in the first two years. Car manufacturers should also only pay one US customs tariff: either the 25 percent serve for cars built abroad or 25 percent inches on steel or aluminum.

In his speech, Trump also tackled his political opponents sharply. It was the first appearance in campaign manner since he was re -entered in the White House. “I missed you, I missed the campaign,” he called to his followers. After the presidential election last year, the Republicans look at the 2026 congress elections in the middle of Trump’s term.

During the appearance, Trump blasphemed extensively about his predecessor, the Democrat Joe Biden, whom he represented as drooling, senile man and called “crazy types”. “This guy could ever become president like the hell,” Trump mocked. He abandoned the Democrats as “radical crazy”, “criminal” and “sick people”, tens of thousands of federal officials as “incompetent” and “corrupt”.

The 78-year-old also complained about “left-wing radical judges” who tried to stop his politics, and biased media that reported almost exclusively about him. Bad survey results for his first 100 days he all off as fake. US media recently published surveys that Trump has only had four out of ten US citizens. In the event of economy and immigration, his values ​​are even worse. He claimed that at least 60 percent of the citizens were behind him.

Trump emphasized that he couldn’t be stopped by anything. Under the cheers of his supporters, he promised large -scale tax cuts as the next step. “In the coming weeks and months, we will get the greatest tax cuts in American history,” said Trump – and once more promised a “golden age” for America with low consumer prices, higher wages and the “best economy in the history of the world”.

His followers in Warren cheered the president and waved posters with the inscription “Make America Great Again” (makes America great again). In the hall there were also posters with the inscription “100 Days of Greatness” (100 years size “) and” Jobs jobs jobs “.

“Nobody can achieve anything so quickly in 100 days,” said retired nurse Steve Camber. Trump did his job “really well,” praised the 60-year-old. The 55-year-old Lisa Reeves said Trump had a “heart for America” ​​and the right morals. The 40-year-old Nelly Nkouka said that she appreciates Trump’s “honesty” and his blunt manner. However, immigrants also deserved the American dream, said the woman, who came from the Congo to the USA in 2005.

In the face of Trump’s radical customs policy, experts warn of higher inflation and slower economic growth. Trump’s hard course against migrants, judges, state employees, universities and minorities also encounter resistance in parts of the population. Critics also accuse him of haunted the NATO allies. Trump announced a quick solution in the Ukraine War, but it is not in sight.
