The first 100 days of Donald Trump’s presidency were a doozy.

We saw DEI and Affirmative Action legislation rolled back, thousands of federal workers displaced, illegal and legal immigrants deported in mass, soaring food prices and tariffs that have crippled the economy and sent the stock market spinning out of control.

What can the occupant of the White House do for an encore these next 100 days?

It seems like every day he comes up with a new executive order and now has college athletics’ name, image and likeness (NIL), which for the last couple of years has allowed college athletes to profit off of themselves, on Trump’s radar. There are also a few conflicts brewing around the world that could break out into larger-scale wars that the United States must weigh in on.

And then we have this messy document also known as Project 2025 that is moving towards its D-Day in July. Of course, the slashing of the federal workforce will continue as will the threat of tariffs on countries like China, which the American people will have to pay the costs for in the form of higher prices.

In our latest episode of the Defender Roundtable, the panel discusses what these next 100 days under Trump’s rule will look like.
