100 days of Trump: What you need to know

  • 7 years ago
100 days of Trump: What you need to know Republicans triggered the "nuclear option" to help pass Trump Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch. The "Mother of All Bombs" was dropped on ISIS targets in Afghanistan at Trump's command. He also launched a missile strike on Syria after the Assad regime gassed a rebel stronghold, killing innocent civilians. Trump accused former President Barack Obama of wiretapping his campaign headquarters in Trump Towers. The accusation was later shot down by the FBI Director on Capitol Hill. Republican infighting derailed the passing of the American Healthcare Act. Before the bill failed, Trump said in late February, "Nobody knew healthcare could be so complicated." Trump waged war on several media sources for what he considered one-sided coverage of his presidency. Trump has endured a treacherous time trying to enact his immigration ban. He lashed out at a federal judge in Washington state following the latter's block of the ban. After spending much of his campaign criticizing the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade deal, Trump signed an executive order withdrawing the U.S. from the pact with 12 other nations.
