Donald Trump Marks One Year of Second Term with Policy Shifts and Economic Claims

Donald Trump completed one year of his second term as US President on January 20, 2026, marked by 228 executive orders and the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency. His administration enacted hardline immigration policies, deporting over 600,000 individuals and banning immigration from 75 countries. Significant federal workforce reductions occurred, with over 317,000 jobs cut. Broad tariffs were imposed, notably impacting India and other trade partners, while foreign policy included military actions and withdrawal from key agreements. Trump highlighted economic growth and inflation control, though some data contradicts these claims.
