Trump Administration

The Trump Administration refers to the executive branch of the United States government during the presidency of Donald J. Trump, who served from January 20, 2017, to January 20, 2021. This period is characterized by a distinctive set of policies and political actions that reflected Trump’s priorities, including significant tax reforms, deregulation efforts, a focus on immigration enforcement, and a controversial foreign policy approach that included withdrawal from several international agreements. The administration was marked by a populist style, frequent use of social media, and a contentious relationship with the press and political opponents. The Trump Administration also faced numerous challenges, including investigations into Russian interference in the 2016 election and the impeachment trials concerning allegations of abuse of power. The period culminated in the 2020 presidential election, which led to Trump’s defeat by Joe Biden.
