beautiful sight. more beautiful with american steel. >> reporter: in may, donald trump campaigned right here at this plant saying exactly what john and so many others desperately wanted to hear. >> i voted republican because donald trump took his time to come to monessen. >> reporter: a life-long democrat in november he flipped, like hundreds of oath voters in this deep blue town. >> i believe he does care about america's middle class and the poor. >> reporter: daughter, a ferven clinton supporter, at their home, john admits he's already disappointed. >> no action thus far. i'm a little disheartened but i'm hoping that maybe he can still honor his word. as a gentleman. >> this is where i say, i told you so. >> i hope -- what have i got to lose? everything's gone. why not maybe keep a little glimmer of hope. >> reporter: right after our visit, president trump did announce that he is taking steps to try to ensure the future of american steel. >> it's beautiful out here.

>> reporter: from a steel town to coal country. >> the heart of trump country. >> reporter: we're visiting dr. harmon at his red bank valley high school students. >> there it is, red bank valley high school. we're going all the way down on the left. poetically, he is in room 100. >> hello. >> hello. >> reporter: this is not the first time "nightline" has walked these halls. back in october terry moran visited this school when they were having their own mock election. one of the biggest issues they were concerned about here, jobs. >> when you asked how many of you have been affected by job loss? can you do that again? how many of you? pretty much everybody. >> reporter: trump won them over, so now 100 days in, we're taking their pulse. how do you think he's doing? >> he wants to do a lot for us and make us feel secure and protected. >> how many in the room know people who have lost their job? that's pretty much everybody.

the answer. >> i think the wall probably won't help. i think it will probably make mexico mad at us and that could cause more issues with the economy. >> you guys think it's fair to judge a president by 100 days? no? you're shaking your head. >> it's a really short amount of time for the four years he has. >> he said that he was going to get a lot of stuff done in 100 days. now he's saying it's a ridiculous standard. what do you make of that. >> i think he didn't realize how hard it was to get everything through. because i mean, he wasn't really a politician, he's a businessman. >> josie, you think it's okay to judge the president on the first 100 days? >> i think it is because he made promises for us. if he can't keep them, it's on him. >> what promises in particular come to mind for you? >> that he was going to like completely repair the health care and get rid of obamacare
