Hey, Molly.
Hey, Kate.
This is it. We've hit 100 days.
We made it. Yay! Where are the crowd sounds? Where is the cheering? Can we get like a sound effect? Fireworks? Something?
Thank you very much. Hello, Michigan. Hello. We love you, Michigan. We love you. We just had the biggest victory in Michigan.
Yeah. Well, it's been 100 days. Wow. Even more, actually, a couple more. It has been like 103 days. So to mark the occasion, I've come up with a small pop quiz for you, something to test you on a few key points from Trump's first 100 days. Oh, boy. Okay. Let's see how we do. How many executive orders has Trump signed in these first 100 days?
Ah, I actually looked this up recently. I believe it's about 140, which is a lot.
It is a lot. The exact number is 142. Okay, I was close.
It's a lot more than most presidents sign, and, you know, they've been pretty substantive. They've really driven a lot of policy. It's been his major way of running the government. How many bills has Trump signed into law? Well, this is quite a contrast. Very few. I believe the number is just five.
