How Donald Trump upended the world in 30 days

Live Mint  

Chennai: If Donald Trump’s political resurrection and return as the 47th president of the US was dramatic, his first few weeks in office have been extraordinary. In his first month, he upended global trade with a rash of punitive tariffs on the country’s largest trading partners, rounded up and deported illegal immigrants, sought takeover of other countries and attacked bureaucracy like never before, terrifying thousands of federal workers. In just 27 days, Trump has issued 65 executive orders on a wide range of issues such as pulling the US from the Paris Climate Agreement and World Health Organization, ending birthright citizenship, declaring a climate emergency, pausing foreign aid and imposing trade tariffs. MAGA vs MIGA As Prime Minister Narendra Modi left for the US to meet Trump last week, many wondered if the latter’s ‘America First’ policies would impact India.
