Donald Trump is back in the White House, and his first 100 days of Term Two were anything but normal. In this episode, I break down what his early moves tell us about the direction of his second administration — and what it means for the future of governance in America.We get into the surge of executive orders, the shift in voter expectations around presidential power, and the economic shockwaves from Trump’s revived tariff policies. I explore how immigration became almost entirely a White House issue, why businesses are bracing for impact, and what centralized power in the executive branch is doing to the constitutional order.This isn’t just about Trump — it’s about how we, the voters and the media, have changed what we expect from a president… and how that shift could backfire.⸻Key topics: • Executive power in Trump’s second term • The economics of Trump’s tariffs • Immigration as a presidential-only issue • Voter appetite for strongman leadership • Trade wars and economic uncertainty • Erosion of checks and balancesChapters00:00 Trump's First 100 Days: A Unique Perspective02:52 The Role of Executive Orders in Trump's Administration06:05 Voter Expectations and the Impact of Short Attention Spans08:48 The Immigration Debate: Trump's Approach and Its Consequences11:57 Economic Policies: Tariffs and Their Implications18:01 The Uncertainty of Trump's Leadership and Future Prospects26:46 The Political Landscape Post-Liberation Day29:08 Tariffs and Economic Uncertainty32:56 The Impact of Trade Wars on American Consumers36:39 China's Role in Global Trade Dynamics39:57 The Consequences of Centralized Power43:41 The Erosion of Constitutional Governance52:58 Looking Ahead: The Future of American Politics
