Hundred Days of Trump Turmoil
Hindustan Times Haryana
|May 02, 2025
Global power relations and the world economy are reeling under the US president's radical policies
-
That the second Donald Trump administration would be more aggressive about his core politics than the first was almost a given. Many analysts expected it to be protectionist and anti-immigrant; dismissive of multilateral and rules-based forums; and driven by vendetta against those who had opposed the US President either in his first term, or the years in between. If the first hundred days of the second Trump presidency have still surprised people, it is not in terms of direction but magnitude.
Trump's constant focus on pushing the envelope on each of these policies has begun to test the resilience of not just his politics but the US's hegemonic position in the world.
