Trump is an inept dealmaker, but at least he's good at reversing course
To visit the White House website is to enter an alternative reality where President Donald Trump is constantly concluding 'breakthrough' deals and ushering in a 'New Golden Age.' Reflecting the president's immodest self-appraisal, the website is full of oleaginous praise for Trump as the 'dealmaker-in-chief' who is delivering — make that 'rapidly delivering' — on his promises.

Lorenzo Sewell, senior pastor at 180 Church in Detroit, delivered a prayer during the benediction at Donald Trump's second inauguration. President Trump will hold a rally in Macomb County, Michigan, on April 29, 2025. The rally is intended to celebrate the first 100 days of his second term. Trump's visit comes amid declining job approval ratings and concerns over his trade policies, particularly tariffs affecting the auto industry. President Donald Trump will make his first visit to Michigan of his second term in office on Tuesday, April 29, as he heads to Macomb County for a rally. Trump is expected to make the stop in metro Detroit to commemorate the passing of the first 100 days into his second term, which comes on April 30. Trump was inaugurated on Jan. 20. No other details about the event, including the time, venue or public availability of tickets were immediately available. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt confirmed the visit on social media platform X, with a statement saying, "President Trump is excited to return to the great state of Michigan next Tuesday, where he will rally in Macomb County to celebrate the FIRST 100 DAYS!" U.S. Rep. John James, R-Shelby Township, whose district includes much of southern Macomb County also posted about the visit on X, saying, "Macomb County is honored to welcome President @realDonaldTrump back to MICHIGAN to celebrate the first 100 days of America's New Golden Age."

James' post included a photo of him and the president together. The Detroit News first reported the presidential visit on Wednesday evening ahead of Leavitt's and James' postings, citing Republican sources. The visit will be the first by Trump since beginning his second, nonconsecutive term, as well as his first since winning Michigan in last November's election, when he defeated Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris, 49.7% to 48.3%. Trump also won Michigan in 2016 en route to securing his first term in office and lost it in 2020 to Democratic former President Joe Biden. Trump won Macomb County in all three elections and was a regular visitor throughout all three campaigns: In the 2024 race, he spent no fewer than 17 days barnstorming Michigan and held a rally in Grand Rapids just ahead of the balloting as he had in his other campaigns. Trump is coming to Michigan at a time when his job approval ratings have been slipping nationally amid his pursuing an aggressive agenda to remake the federal government and institute a wide range of import tariffs on goods that have fueled worries they could spark a recession. Detroit automakers are especially worried that tariffs on autos and auto parts could result in snarling supply chains, spiking prices and tanking sales. The president, who has also seen the stock market ride a roller-coaster of abrupt losses in recent weeks, has argued that tariffs will lead to more investment in auto manufacturing and that several automakers are already announcing plans to expand U.S. operations to avoid paying them. Trump, however, has teased the possibility of giving automakers a break on some tariffs, though no announcement to that effect has been made.

Trump to Commemorate 100 Days in Office With Michigan Rally
President Donald Trump will be in Michigan next week to mark his first 100 days in office, holding a rally in the state that was a crucial part of his 2024 electoral coalition. 'President Trump is excited to return to the great state of Michigan next Tuesday, where he will rally in Macomb County to celebrate the FIRST 100 DAYS!' White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said in a It's his first visit to the state since his 2024 election victory, when he won Michigan by 1.4 percent. It was one of three Rust Belt states that Trump flipped in that race, contributing to his 312 electoral vote victory over Vice President Kamala Harris. Macomb County, a solidly Republican county northeast of Detroit, contributed to that win, backing Trump over Harris by a 14 percent margin. Rep. John James (R-Mich.), who represents Macomb County, made a 'Macomb County is honored to welcome President @realDonaldTrump back to MICHIGAN to celebrate the first 100 days of America's New Golden Age,' he wrote. Related Stories 4/23/2025 4/23/2025 The first 100 days of a term marks an important milestone in American political life, and are seen as setting the tone for the administration's coming four years. In his first 100 days, Trump has sought aggressive reductions in the size of the federal bureaucracy, slashed or eliminated a variety of federal agencies, began his push to carry out 'the largest deportation operation in American history,' and imposed sweeping new reciprocal tariffs on nearly every nation in the world. The administration believes the tariffs stand to benefit places like Michigan, where manufacturing plants and union jobs are the primary source of income for many. Trump has been assisted by the support of a Republican-controlled House and Senate, who are working toward completion of a sweeping funding bill that House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has suggested could be among the most consequential in American history. It's expected to touch on tax policy and funding for border security, energy, and defense. Since taking office, Trump has kept his travel away from Washington to a minimum. During his first week in office, he visited disaster zones in North Carolina, affected by flooding from hurricanes, and California, affected by wildfires. Later, he traveled to Las Vegas—which contributed to his 2024 win—to promote his 'No taxes on tips' plan. This will be his first rally since that appearance. Later this week, he'll travel to Rome to attend Pope Francis's funeral, his first foreign visit since taking office.
