This Al Jazeera special coverage assesses President Donald Trump’s first year back in office, a period defined by a disruptive style that has challenged global and domestic norms. His “America First” agenda has reframed international alliances, using tariffs and threats to NATO to demand tangible returns, while his foreign policy has pivoted between direct confrontation and unilateral peace efforts.
Domestically, Trump governs as the “most transparent” president, bypassing traditional media through relentless social media engagement and executive actions that have stretched presidential power. His blunt rhetoric and transactional approach have polarised opinion but delivered on core campaign promises, from tax cuts to a reasserted Monroe Doctrine in the hemisphere.
The administration’s economic nationalism has spurred intense debate; supporters cite renewed investor optimism, while critics warn its unpredictability harms long-term stability for businesses and allies alike. Analysts conclude that Trump’s ultimate legacy will hinge on whether his MAGA movement endures as a governing philosophy beyond his own unpredictable tenure.
