Why Trump 2.0‘s first 100 days in office are drawing global concern


Listen Later

Donald Trump has made it through his 100 days back in office – and people are not thrilled with his performance.

His approval ratings at the 100 day mark are the lowest in 70 years, with only a 44 percent approval for a man who won the popular vote only 7 months ago.

It comes as his tenure has so far been dominated by tariffs and trade wars, cutting public services, gender, mass deportations, and hitting out at his enemies.

And the Trump bump has even taken on a new meaning – with Canada and Australia’s left-leaning political parties reversing polls from the start of the year to stay in government.

But with roughly 2000 days left in his presidency, what does the future hold for Trump 2.0?

We’re working through that today on The Front Page with University of Otago Professor of International Relations, Robert Patman.
