The first 100 days are often seen as a defining period, shaping both the new administration’s priorities and its relationship with Congress, the public, and the world.

On January 20, Donald Trump will be sworn in as the next President of the United States. From tax cuts to tariffs, Trump has promised significant changes for the future. What can we expect in the first 100 days of the presidency and what will that mean for the next four years and the future of our democracy?
