Donald Trump to mark 100 days in office with Michigan rally – US politics live

Mark Carney warns that President Trump is attempting to weaken Canada as he reaches 100 days in office.

As President Trump’s second term reaches its 100-day mark, Mark Carney, the Canadian leader, has issued a cautionary statement claiming that Trump is aiming to undermine Canada. Carney celebrated his election win in Canada amidst concerns that Trump is trying to harm the country.

Reflecting on the tumultuous past 100 days, Trump’s actions have been critiqued for steering the oldest continuous democracy in the world towards authoritarianism. Through executive orders, Trump has targeted various sectors including Congress, the legal system, media, culture, and public health. His administration has been marked by a vengeful attitude towards perceived adversaries, displaying an unwillingness to let go of past grievances.

Carney highlighted that Trump’s policies, such as trade tariffs and hints at Canada’s annexation, were instrumental in his own victory. Carney, in response to Trump’s actions, emphasized that America’s attempts to claim Canadian land and resources are serious threats that Canada will not succumb to.

Additionally, Trump’s administration continued to address his campaign promises during the initial 100 days, focusing on immigration crackdowns and law enforcement. New executive orders targeted sanctuary cities and aimed to bolster legal protections for law enforcement officers facing misconduct allegations. Other developments included proposals for border wall funding, threats to veto Senate resolutions, and concerns over immigrant children being separated from their families.

Moreover, Congressman Gerry Connolly announced his decision not to seek re-election due to health reasons after being diagnosed with cancer. As Trump’s presidency progresses, his actions and policies continue to shape the political landscape, eliciting a range of reactions both domestically and internationally.
