In the first 100 hours of his presidency, Donald Trump has enacted a series of executive orders that have been described as unprecedented in their scope and speed. The White House reported that Trump signed over 300 executive orders, initiated $1.1 billion in private investments, and implemented measures to eliminate illegal border crossings. Analysts have noted that these actions represent a stark reversal of former President Biden's policies, particularly regarding border security. Trump's rapid approach has drawn comparisons to previous administrations, with some commentators asserting that he has accomplished more in this brief period than any president has in their first 100 days. This swift action has been characterized as a 'shock to the system' and is seen as a significant departure from traditional presidential transitions.
