  • US President Donald Trump hails his 'revolution of common sense' and vows further 'profound change' in front of supporters at a Michigan rally, as he hits 100 days in office.

  • He also mocks his predecessor, Biden, and brushes off a woman protester after he mistook her for a man.


The first 100 days of Donald Trump's presidency have sent shockwaves across the globe, yet the US president maintains that this is only the beginning of his agenda.

Speaking to a crowd of loyal supporters in Michigan, the president hailed his administration’s accomplishments so far and vowed that the momentum had only just begun.

“We've just gotten started, you haven't seen anything yet,” Trump was quoted as saying by the BBC.

The Republican praised what he called a “revolution of common sense” and promised to bring about “profound change.”

Dismissing opinion polls showing a decline in his popularity, Trump labelled them “fake.”

According to Gallup, Trump stands alone among post-World War II presidents in failing to secure majority approval at the 100-day mark, with his rating sitting at 44 percent.

Taking jabs at Biden

During the rally, Trump took aim at his predecessor, mocking Joe Biden’s mental acuity and even his appearance in a swimsuit.

He then encouraged the audience to vote on their favourite nicknames for Biden.

The event also featured a provocative video showing deportees being expelled from the US and sent to a mega-prison in El Salvador - a visual nod to Trump’s hardline immigration stance.

Misgendering protester

In another moment, Fox News reported that Trump brushed off a protester who attempted to interrupt his speech, drawing laughter from the crowd.

“What’s the problem over there?” Trump asked. “What’s the problem? Is that a radical left lunatic? He's just a child. All right, get him out.”

Upon realising the protester was a woman, Trump corrected himself: “Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, ma'am, I thought it was a guy. I'm sorry, I said he and it's a she.”

He then added, to laughter and applause: “She now has to go home to a mother who's a big Trump fan. Her mother's watching.
