Donald Trump
Donald J. Trump is an American businessman and politician who began his second non-consecutive term as the 47th President of the United States on January 20, 2025. Before returning to office, he had already served as the 45th president from 2017 to 2021. His policies in 2025 emphasize immigration enforcement, reshaping foreign aid, media funding reforms, and major executive orders across trade and security. Public opinion remains deeply divided: a recent poll found around half of Americans believe his administration is not committed to protecting rights such as freedom of the press or free elections, though majorities of his own party disagree.
