President Trump’s Historic 100 Days. Democrats say no peace for conservatives

The White House published what has to be the most historic 100 days in the modern era of the U.S.A.

In light of these historic 100 days, legacy media has provided 92% negative coverage of President Donald Trump’s second term.

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker urged large demonstrations against the Trump administration and criticized the do-nothing Democrats for not effectively resisting the Republican-led federal government.

“Never before in my life have I called for mass protests, for mobilization, for disruption. But I am now,” Pritzker said in his keynote address at the New Hampshire Democratic Party’s McIntyre-Shaheen 100 Club Dinner.

Democrat Judges, Democrat leaders, Tesla destroying protestors, and immigrant allies wanting “due process” for the 20 million illegal immigrants Joe Biden allowed to cross the border, have all worked to slow down the successes and gum up the process of this successful historic 100 days.

Reflection on President Trump’s Historic 100 Days

Here are the key highlights the White House touted about these past historic 100 days.

Jobs Statistics:

  • President Trump has created 345,000 jobs since taking office in January, the first month of his historic 100 days.
    • 188,000 (54%) of these were in non-government and government-adjacent sectors. This is a dramatic improvement from the last two years of the Biden Administration, when three-fourths of all new jobs were in government or government-adjacent sectors.
      • 2,000 of which were mining and logging jobs.
      • 27,000 of which were construction jobs.
      • 9,000 manufacturing jobs were created (compared to the 6,000 manufacturing jobs lost per month from Jan 2023 to Dec 2024).
    • At the same time that there were large private sector job gains, 15,000 federal government jobs were cut.
  • The labor force participation rate for those without a high school diploma is up by 0.7% since President Trump took office.
  • The veteran unemployment rate is down from 4.2% in January to 3.8% in March.
  • 228,000 jobs were created in March alone, well above expectations.
    • This was the fourth best month in the last two years for private payroll growth.
  • Remote work among federal employees has fallen over 16 percentage points from March last year to March this year, showcasing the success of President Trump’s initiative to bring federal workers back to the office.
    • Federal telework numbers are now in-line with the private sector.

Inflation Statistics:

  • Prescription drug prices are down over 2% since President Trump took office during his historic 100 days. 
  • Last month’s drop in the price of prescription drugs was the largest ever recorded.
  • Gasoline prices, as measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), are down 7% since President Trump took office.
  • Energy prices are down 2% since President Trump took office.
  • Wholesale egg prices down are about 50% since President Trump took office. Most consumers have seen relief in prices on the shelf, but all consumers should see it within the next month or two.
  • February inflation (the month prior to the most recent data) showed the smallest annual increase in core inflation in over four years (since March 2021).
  • Both of the last two CPI inflation prints came in below expectations.
  • Last month’s (March) decline was only the second monthly decline in inflation (CPI) in the last two-and-a-half years.
  • These price declines are in contrast to the persistently high inflation under President Biden, which reached the highest annual rate in the past 40 years. After suffering for years under Biden Administration inflation, consumers are now getting welcome relief. On Biden’s watch, grocery prices rose 23%, and energy prices rose 34%.
  • As a result of biting inflation, real wages in President Biden’s term were down about 2.4%.
  • Moreover, in the most recent inflation print from March, airfare, used motor vehicles, and motor insurance all saw price decreases.
  • Prices for wholesale goods fell nearly 1% last month and prices for wholesale services fell 0.2% last month, which will eventually lead to lower consumer prices.
  • Last month, retail egg price inflation continued to slow.

Miscellaneous Positive Economic Statistics:

  • Real average hourly earnings for middle- and low-income workers are up 0.4% and up 1% for workers in the manufacturing sector since President Trump took office during his historic 100 days.
  • The automotive sector is growing: under President Trump, we already had the biggest one-month increase in auto sales in March in more than a year.
  • Mortgage rates have declined roughly four-tenths of a percentage point since President Trump took office.
    • Assuming the most recent median home price in the U.S., a new homebuyer making a 20% down payment on a 30-year mortgage would save roughly $32,400 over the course of the loan, or about $1,080 per year.
  • Industrial production was at the seventh-highest monthly level ever recorded in March. The only higher monthly levels occurred during the first Trump Administration in 2018 and in February of this year.
  • Since the beginning of the Trump Administration, at least $5 trillion in new investment in the U.S. has been pledged from both foreign governments and private companies during his historic 100 days.
