PNN – On the 100th day of his presidency, President Donald Trump of the United States of America stated that in 100 days we have achieved achievements that had not been achieved in 100 years, and said: My motto is America first, not China.
According to the report of Pakistan News Network, US President Donald Trump, on Tuesday evening local time in Michigan, on the occasion of the 100th day since the beginning of his administration, claimed that we are at the beginning of America’s golden age, adding: Today we celebrate the 100th successful day of forming the best government in the history of our country.
Addressing the gathering, the US President said: After decades of politicians destroying Detroit to build Beijing, you now have a true champion of workers in the White House. Instead of putting China first, I put Michigan first and I put America first.
Trump, who celebrated the 100th day of his second administration with his supporters, added: China has taken more jobs from us, more than any country has ever taken from any other country.
Trump questioned the credibility of polls that showed his approval ratings were low in the first 100 days of his administration and promised: We will eliminate inflation, end the waste of billions of dollars, and restore American greatness.

Trump once again attacked Jerome Powell, the chairman of the US Central Bank (Federal Reserve), without directly mentioning him by name, and said to his supporters in Warren: Inflation has actually come down and interest rates have come down, even though I have someone at the Federal Reserve who is not really doing a good job, of course I don’t want to say that! I know I should let him do his job, but believe me, I know a lot more about interest rates than he does.
Trump has repeatedly criticized Powell for keeping interest rates high, while Powell has emphasized that decisions on rates are made only after a careful examination of economic conditions.
According to CNN, Trump’s advisers have warned him that removing the Federal Reserve chairman could have serious legal and economic consequences.
The US President claimed: Only 3 illegal immigrants have crossed our border in the last 100 days. Kamala Harris (former Vice President of the United States) was in charge of Border Patrol and did not speak to any immigration officials for four years.
The US President continued: A few days after taking office, I signed an executive order to secure our borders and keep killers out of the country. We are deporting large numbers of illegal immigrants.
Trump also promised to rebuild and strengthen the Selfridge Air National Guard Base in Michigan, speaking at the base. The US president promised that the base would soon receive 21 Boeing F-15EX fighter jets to replace its current aging fleet.
He also promised once again to increase the US military budget to a historic record of $1 trillion, a figure that would represent a 12% increase in military spending.
The US President went on to mention his order to begin construction of the “Golden Dome” air defense system to protect the US mainland, while many experts consider the realization of such a plan unrealistic.
Trump referred to his victory in Michigan during his speech, saying, “I will not forget my friends, and Michigan has always been my friend.”
