The 50-Year Agenda Will Be Set in Trump’s First 100 Days

As concerns over anti-Semitic violence continue to mount, Trump addressed a National Prayer Breakfast and denounced “hate in any form.” Additionally, he issued an executive order opening up millions of acres off U.S. shores for oil drilling.

Reince Priebus can be seen dashing between conference rooms and meetings with manufacturing executives; Jared Kushner can often be found alongside Rudy Giuliani; while Bannon is often found surrounded by his key staffers.

Trump’s 1st 100 Days Will Set 50-Year Agenda

Last November, Americans made an unprecedented choice when they voted Donald Trump into office as president – they trusted an unknown to run their nation despite his radical agenda and no prior political experience. So how will he govern?

Bannon, former editor of Breitbart News Network and one of Trump’s most powerful members, represents liberals’ existential pain and fury over how such an offensive, incompetent figure came so close to winning the presidency.

Trump issued several executive actions this week that have resulted in him revoking his travel ban and proposing an initiative to lower corporate taxes, visiting wounded troops at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center and awarding one soldier with a Purple Heart medal. Trump denounced conspiracy theories regarding his connections with Russia while also criticizing media coverage of Flynn’s firing as well as hailing astronauts aboard International Space Station while condemning Syria for its chemical weapons attacks on civilians.

The First 100 Days

As the 100-day mark approaches, Donald Trump makes his inaugural visit to a military base and presents a Purple Heart medal to the family of a fallen Navy SEAL. Additionally, he holds a campaign rally in Pennsylvania before Congress passes legislation keeping government open for an extra week while signing an executive order which could open Arctic waters and millions of coastal acres for drilling.

He warned against “our terrible border security” and sought to dismantle more financial regulations. At a religious event, he made headlines for calling for prayers for his Apprentice successor Arnold Schwarzenegger while denouncing those who doubt the Holocaust.

He also calls on the Senate to use its rarely invoked “nuclear option” and strip Democrats of any ability to block Neil Gorsuch from becoming Supreme Court Justice. Additionally, President Trump makes calls with world leaders and addresses the Conservative Political Action Conference.

The Second 100 Days

As Congress passes a stopgap funding bill to prevent a federal shutdown, Trump visits a Boeing plant in North Charleston, S.C. where he promotes his “America First” trade policy while rejecting suggestions that he might back down from plans to construct a wall along the Southwest border.

Following protests, legal challenges and criticism over his refugee ban, President Donald Trump signed three more executive actions to restore order: restructuring of the National Security Council; curbing lobbying activities and tightening ethics rules within the White House; as well as appearances by top aides Kellyanne Conway, Steve Bannon and K.T. McFarland on Meet the Press panels to defend him.

Critics argue that Trump operates in an opportunistic fashion, rewarding friends and punishing foes without regard to logic or consistency. Furthermore, they warn that Trump’s combination of autocratic and kleptocratic tendencies will reinforce each other and form an exclusive business-political elite that may struggle if power shifts away.

The Third 100 Days

As Trump ploughs forward with his foreign policy agenda, critics fear his muscular foreign policy could provoke World War III with Syria or North Korea. Kesler sees an undertone of moderation within his administration with sober scholarly advisers guiding their decisions.

As the transition team kicks into gear at the White House, Bannon’s influence surges. His office becomes abuzz with activity as Reince Priebus, the new Chief of Staff, is busy shuttling between conference rooms; Jared Kushner conferring with others in the halls; Trump himself talking with staffers outside his corner office; and Rudy Giuliani is often found entering and exiting Trump’s private conference room.

Bannon will report directly to President Donald Trump for vision, goals and narrative work, while serving as a counterweight against more traditional and pragmatic Priebus. By doing this, Bannon will exacerbate Trump’s strain in Republican politics – the belief that government should reward friends while punish foes without regard for logic or consistency – an approach seen by many liberals as fundamentally wrong and dangerous.
