100 Days Trump: Fervable fans remaining on the side of the president

They trust Trump. While experts and protesters have described the last 100 days as « hell », if you talk to Donald Trump’s most loyal supporters, you will hear them use words such as « amazing », « fantastic » and « ecstatic » when referring to his presidency.

Trump’s base, this unfortunate group that has long aroused the polls, remains steadfast in supporting the 78 -year -old and quite inventive in finding new ways to praise his leadership.

The Guardian’s interviews with Trump fans at a rally of an election campaign in Warren, Michigan on Tuesday, seemed to be on another planet than polls giving him the lowest percentage of the first 100 days than any president in the last 80 years.

Through the prism of Maga, Trump leads the economy to a new golden age, making the roads safer with the expulsion of illegal immigrants and protecting democracy.

‘He has done what he promised’

« The first 100 days were fantastic, » said Dave Bono, manager of construction.

« He has done so much in this time, certainly more than any other president. I know there are differences in his political positions, but overall, as someone who has supported him, I think he is right. « 

The 60 -year -old added: « He has done everything he has promised in his election campaign, which is significantly different from most politicians. Whether we like it or not, he does what he said he will do and that is all that one can ask for. « 

Elsewhere at the gathering, Matt Bol, 53, a professional driver, was wearing a red hat with the slogan « Make America Great Again » and a t -shirt with the phrase « Fight, Fight, Fight » and the image of Trump with his hand raised after the assassination attempt last year.

He said: « Many things I don’t think can be achieved in a hundred days, but what I saw in the first hundred days is what I voted for. »

Comparisons with Biden

According to official data, the US economy shrunk in the first three months of the year.

Boll commented: « It can’t be worse than the mess we lived with Joe Biden for four years, so I’m willing to risk it. »

Suzan Jennings, 65, wearing a hat with the phrase « Trump 2024 The Sequel », agreed.

« I trust him and trust his cabinet completely, » he said. « People just need to have a little patience. Our country has been destroyed for the last four years. I absolutely believe that he loves America. He loves us and does it. « 

Jennings described Trump’s first 100 days as « fantastic, because she has done everything she promised and makes our country great again ».

All those who interviewed the Guardian expressed their admiration for Trump’s billionaire ally, Elon Musk, and his « ministry of government effectiveness », or Doge, who has taken the saw in the federal ministries.

Supporters are shouting outside the area where US President Donald Trump is gathering to mark the first 100 days of his term in Macomb Community College in Warren, Michigan, on April 29, 2025.

A personal worship

The worship character of Trump’s personality remains.

He is no longer a candidate for office, but Tuesday’s concentration was accompanied by the well -known symbols.

A truck parked outside the Macomb Community College brings the slogans « Trump won » and « Make America Great again » and is decorated with a motorcycle, a miniature of the statue of freedom and signs with slogans such as « Build the Wall » and « Vote ».

Trump has been widely convicted of his draconian immigration policy, which has led to the arrest of alleged gang members from the streets and their mission to an infamous Major Prison in El Salvador without trial.

The president has undergone a series of reprimands and regressions by judges. However, followers are willing to accept it as a side loss.

The illegal immigrants in the foreground

Blake Marnell, 60, says: « The concerns about proper procedure and deportations come to a large extent from the political left and from what I would consider to be a judicial exaggeration and unnecessary arrangements. But let’s be realistic. We have 10 million people at the top and 8 million people at the lower level who probably should be deported and are here illegally. Statistically, there will be people who will cause problems. Waiting for absolute perfection in 100% of the 8 million people leaving the United States is rather unrealistic. « 

A person held at the Cecot Center in El Salvador is displayed on a screen, while US President Donald Trump is watching during a concentration to celebrate the 100 days of his term at the Macomb Community College in Warren, Michigan, USA, on April 29.

Among the supporters was Amy Lee, an immigrant from Vietnam working in the field of insurance and wore a Maga hat, a Trump keyhoch and a dress with the American flag that wrote: « The fake media of the big technology companies are the virus. »

The 63 -year -old said: « Of course you want to control those who come. Do you want to welcome everyone, but you want criminals, do you want terrorists in your country? Do you want to be at home? Do you want to take control? The rate of crime is incredible. « 

Trump has sought to extend the presidential authority at the expense of Congress and courts and has implied that he could pursue a third term, violating the Constitution.

A democratic dictatorship

This week, the Public Religion Research Institute (PRRI) published a survey of more than 5,000 Americans, who found that 52% agrees that Trump is « a dangerous dictator whose power should be restricted before destroying the US Republic ».

Concentration participants mock such reviews.

Jay Fisman, 26, working in a real estate market assesses the principle of Trump as « stunning », said: « A dictator does not tell you what he will do and after doing so. President Trump said everything he planned to do, from the use of the law on hostile foreigners, to the duties, to the end of the list, whatever you want, so why suddenly be surprised?

« What the dictators do is to imprison their political opponents. A party imprisones his political opponents. I do not see President Trump – however accusing him of wanting it – to imprison others other than federal and state judges who host illegal foreigners. He does not imprison political opponents. «
