(NewsNation) — President Donald Trump is holding a rally in Michigan to celebrate the first 100 days of his second term in office.
Trump is set to visit Selfridge Air National Guard Base for a big announcement alongside Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer. He is also expected to speak at Macomb Community College near Detroit, likely touting the White House’s agenda and the progress the administration has made on Trump’s campaign promises so far.
The Trump administration has already made major changes like immigration reform, the creation of DOGE, its cuts to the federal workforce and sparking a trade war with tariffs.
The Michigan rally will be his biggest public event since his return to the White House, and mark his return to the battleground state since his rally in Grand Rapids right before the November election.
Michigan has already been impacted by the Trump administration’s tariffs and its relations with Canada. One voter in Michigan said she has already seen those impacts in terms of shifts being cut back at a local Ford plant, but says she still believes in the president.
“Is it going to be tough for a minute? I think so,” Misty Robinette said. “But in the long run, is it going to be better for us? 100%.”
Trump is also expected to talk about an upcoming executive order that Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt previewed in a White House briefing Tuesday morning. It will be about softening tariffs on automakers, as some have been concerned about the impact tariffs could have on U.S. plants.
Senior administration officials say that it will mean a boom for the U.S. economy, tens of thousands of jobs for Americans and a manufacturing boost.
