storingt trump has been liberty and the arsenal of now just short of 100 days, president trump has bills 30 bills and -- 20 into law, 30 executive orders, which show that he is not only a man of his word, president trump is a man of action. [applause] vice pres. pence: since day one, the president has taken concise toaction -- decisive action make our economy moving again, looking for prosperity for every american family. president trump, i like to say, has a three-part agenda -- jobs, jobs, and jobs. the president has been slashing through mountains of red tape, and her focus earlier today on american energy and american energy independence. he put forward a plan for the biggest tax cut for individuals and businesses in american history. [applause] vice pres. pence: the result? than 500,000 new jobs have been created so far this year. small business confidence is skyrocketing to its highest level in decades, and for manufacturers, the highest level in two decades. does companies around the world want to invest in our country for american jobs and american injured. president trump's lead

has changed his mind. it seemed like a very trump—like action to me. has changed his mind. st or worst attack like this, but it is the one that brought this point and force right now. yes. and if they wa nted force right now. yes. and if they wanted to try to prevent any future chemical weapons attacks, or indeed, the types of barrel bombings we saw in the past year that was such a outcry, military intervention would be to take out the warplanes, ground the military air force, which would bea the military air force, which would be a huge operation and would have a larger risk of casualties from russian and syrian military because they are working together. that would actually have an impact on the direction of the war. i don't think, at least from what we know so far, that this strike will have any impact on the direction of the war. and it seems to be as limited a risk as possible in terms of the kinds of fallout for the americans and the american military. now, having said that, again, there are between 500 and 700 american troops, special operations forces and troops, in

sharyl: but kurtz says president trump has also crossed a clear line. e: when he uses phrases like mainstream media "fake news," "enemy of the american people," that in my view goes a l president trump: a few days ago, i called the fake news the enemy of the people. and they are. they are the enemy of the people. howie: there certainly is reason for him to be upset with the way that he is covered. he can never seem to catch a break, if he gets a good story it's gone within 24 hours. but enemy of the american people suggests traitorous behavior and i think that goes over the line. sharyl: for all the animosity, could it be that the media and this president are locked in a dysfunctional relationship that's mutually beneficial? frank: some media have strong ideological baggage or principles, depending on your point of view, that they bring. some see a higher calling and need for a different level of journalism. so it just engaged and enervated because the ratings and circulation and clicks are up across the board because donald that marathon news conference

present john hasn't -- president trump has not been able to change much and if he doesn't soon, the high stall. let's stay with president trump because he's been telling reuters news agency he will either renegotiate or terminate what he called a "horrible" free trade deal with south korea. he also says seoul should pay for a us anti—missile system that he priced at $1 billion. let's go over to singapore and sharanjit. good let's go over to singapore and shara njit. good to let's go over to singapore and sharanjit. good to see you, sharanjit. good to see you, sharanjit. another one sharanjit. good to see you, shara njit. another one of sharanjit. good to see you, sharanjit. another one of these announcements by the president. it is the currency, the won, that has taken a hit. yes, the currency, the w011 as taken a hit. yes, the currency, the won as well is the local index went into reverse. it stunned a lot of investors. they weren't expecting this to come and mr trump is, as you said, the gift that keeps on giving. he is calling the five—year pact with south korea unacceptable and that

trump has been outspoken in his desire to put "america first" and in terms of what he might do about election campaign. mr trump floated the idea of a 45% tariff on goods from china. but the big problem donald trump has is that it's heavily tilted in china's favour because the us had a deficit of $336] billion. there have been indications china would retaliate to any such move and injanuary president xi said "waging a trade war will only cause injury and loss to both sides." so will the two leaders see eye—to—eye? and what do the businesses in new york want to hear? samira hussain sent this report. we cannot continue to allow china to rape oui’ we cannot continue to allow china to rape our country. they have taken oui’ rape our country. they have taken our money, they have taken ourjobs. china is a currency manipulator. america has lost 70,000 factories. since china entered the world trade organization. probably not the best way to tee up a meeting with america's second largest trading partner. but meeting they are, at the trump estate in florida. two countries have a lot to discuss.

president trump has been much like canada trump, and while that has horrified liberals in america's majories who regard him as a national belt, het, in the rust is widely viewed as a potential national savior. teo trumps, two americas. that won him the presidency, it remains a strong hold. bbc news, ohio. laura: we heard earlier from ohio governor john kasich who was the last man standing against donald trump in the race for the republican nomination. he has a new book out called "two paths: america divided reunited?" he spoke to katty kay and christian fraser on the bbc's "100 days" program. gov. kasich: they wanted me to go, and i went in to see him. i went to munich for the security conference with john mccain. i told him people didn't want to hear all of his folks. they wanted to hear from him because there was a question about what america was going to be like. we talked about the health care plan, that i also told him in my first 100 days as governor, things were rocky. i didn't have it down, and one day, my wife said to me, john, you are the governor of ohio, which means you are th

trump pal. the reverse has actually happened. he is developing a very good relationship with president xi, which he talked about at some length. they met for hours and hours in florida, mar-a-lago. they talked for an hour on the phone this week on tuesday night. basically, i like this guy. we have a good chemistry. we can work together. when asked about vladimir putin, he said, well, i got a nice call from him after the election. i called him after the terrorist attack recently in russia to offer our condolences, but i don't really know putin. you have a quite different reality than the one that was presaged during the election. charlie: we know secretary of state tillerson met with putin today in moscow. coming out of that meeting were not very positive notes about the future of u.s.-russia relations. >> there is tension. there is a lot of tension. syria has brought all those tensions to the surface. the idea that the u.s. was going to work with russia in syria, not against russia and syria, now seems a distant memory. there is

trump has said is the policy.the north koreans to behave badly. >> breaking news, from law enforcement officials they say they

president trump has focused on that in particular, that large trade surplus that china has with the usr, and he has been pressing chinese president xijinping to and he has been pressing chinese president xi jinping to help and he has been pressing chinese president xijinping to help reduce the gap. do you ever ordered delivery? takeout food, i should say? yes, sometimes. delivered to you by a man or a woman on say? yes, sometimes. delivered to you by a man 01’ a woman on a scooter, right? something like that? that's right. watch this next story. are you happy to have your food delivered by a robot? that's the question being asked of take—out food customers in san francisco. it's the first full scale roll—out of technology that could mean the end of the road for scooter delivery riders. we think the best approach for this kind of system is one where there is co nsta nt kind of system is one where there is constant human oversight of the robots. the architecture we have chosenis robots. the architecture we have chosen is one where a person is capable of controlling one or two robots, and

donald trump said he has a great relationship with the blacks. though unless the blacks are a family of white people, i bet he's mistaken. >> oh, the memories. that's a little context for why donald trump may not be there tonight. why did he choose harrisburg, pennsylvania over washington, d.c.? the president arguing this is a place to connect with real americans. he's also using this as a chance to contrast his arguments against what he sees as a main stream media out to get him. a new op-ed hit the washington post within the last hour by the president titled in my first hundred days i ept can my promise to americans. we'll have more on that as well. jacob rascon live at the rally talking to trump supporters and we have a power panel with me in washington as well as from around the country. starting with you, jacob. what are you seeing out there at the rally and the hundred days. is it a mood that feels typical of other rallies or something different? >> reporter: the campaign, maybe more excitement. he is their president and they got what they w

president trump has called the deadly gas attack in syria an affront to humanity, and said it changedope and reconciliation has taken place at westminster abbey, a fortnight after the attack on westminster bridge and the houses of parliament. nicholas witchell reports. two weeks after shocking events which occurred almost within its precincts, at westminster abbey, a service symbolising hope. leaders of the different faith communities from across the united kingdom werejoined in the congregation by the duke and duchess of cambridge and prince harry, together with members of the emergency services, some of those who were injured, and some of the bereaved, including melissa cochrane, whose husband, kurt, was one of the four people who died. candles were lit to represent the light which can never be extinguished by the darkness of terror. in his address, the dean of westminster recalled that among those who were directly affected by the attack were people from britain and 12 other nations. he posed the question so many have asked — why? what could possibly motivate a man to hire a car an

president donald trump has hinted at a harder line on syria in the aftermath of the suspected chemicalttack. 70 people were killed, scores more injured. the u.s. has said it will take unspecified unilateral action against the assad regime. we want to bring in ishmael alab , he is part of the white helmets. the only rescue workers available to help people. it is good you back on the show. we have been trying ever since tuesday to get information from the site of the attack and what happened. if you heard from the people who were there? >> i have heard and i went to the town situated in the south. a lot was happening before the night of the chemical bombing. thereikes in that night. our colleagues heard a large explosion, we use it to hear cluster bombs and rockets but this time it was a light explosion and the rescue teams -- brent: the syrian government, the regime is saying that what you had were the explosions when rockets were fired on the pose held by the rebels. the rebels who were hiding illegal chemical weapons on the ground. can you verify that or can you -- have you heard that

so it seems as if trump has jinpingto pull xi toward them in this crucial confrontation. sly the chinese want this to be resolved without military force. that would be catastrophic for northeast asia. it has been really interesting, surprisingly nuanced to me, a bit of diplomacy from a very inexperienced president. who, until the summit with xi jinping i'm not sure he'd ever , had a meeting quite like that. charlie: it is so interesting to me that the strike took place on thursday night and xi jinping is having dinner with of the man that ordered the strike. nick: i think it must have stunned him the way all of us were stunned, because of the astonishing speed of the use of those missiles going there. is trump trying to signal us about north korea? i agree with david in that the chinese are banking on this to restrict coal ports to north korea. but i'm skeptical that president trump is going to be any more successful than president obama or president bush. i was part of the bush effort to try to get the chinese to do more. at the end of the day, the chinese i think, are mo

i think it has something to do with trump, who he is. he likes to be flattered. he likes the way that vladimir putin has said nice things about him. i think it has something to do with he doesn't want to admit that his campaign did get the help from russia because he knows that leads to questions about his legitimacy that he is very, very sensitive to. >> i think this is an important part of what trump has to do right now. he has to say that, actually, i am the president of the united states and of all americans and i'm going to come forward. i'm going to come clean. i'm going to cooperate. instead, he sends tweets that suggest that somehow this is a witch hunt against his administration. we have to remember that both his attorney general, jeff sessions, whose office introduced carter page. former campaign manager, paul manafort. so many connections right now to a folks actually talking to a russian ambassador and allegations that there were communications between carter page that he was supposed to pass on to trump that he was going to, in fact, get rewarded if s

the truth is president trump has been relentlessly delivering on the promises he made to the americans back. [applause] you know since even before president trump took office he's been fighting for american jobs and american workers. for the past 100 days president trump has been slashing red tape. he has signed more bills cutting job-killing regulations than any president in american history. [applause] you prove the keystone and akoto pipelines, opened up offshore drilling. he has put america back on a path to energy independence and under president donald trump the war on kole is over. [cheers and applause] and just this past week president trump laid out a plan for one of the's tax cuts and american history. we are going to cut taxes across-the-board for working families small businesses and family farms. just a few minutes ago the president took another step to make sure that trade deals benefits american workers first. folks, that's american leadership for the american people. [applause] [chanting] usa. usa. usa. make no mistake about it, president trump will not rest, will not

trump. we've seen what he has been doing. mp believes the russians have real intel on him or any members of his team that matter, and he decides he's going to engage in strikes against syria after the russians have explicitly said that the syrians, the syrian government was not using chemical weapons, i would think trump would have some vulnerability there. charlie: the big it is, do they have that kind of -- ian: i have no idea. i have no idea. charlie: the so-called dossier. ian: so far, you have to think it is strange despite the fact you have people like ambassador nikki haley taking on putin and the kremlin every bit as harsh in her words as we saw from samantha power when she was ambassador -- but trump has done zero. charlie: she says she has the complete approval of the president to do that. ian: and look, she is still in her job. probablyeve that is the case. trump himself has made none of those statements and has taken every opportunity to say no. charlie: other people in the administration have been tougher on russi

has backed off human rights in any context. it is a mistake. wheret think of a context the trumpdministration has put mix in termsin the of strategic dialogue and the conversations we are having with nations around the world, so i don't have high hopes that he will raise human rights issues here. this is a vacuum. that a leadership vacuum is not one we should be creating, but i fear we are. on backing off on the tpp the first day of the trump administration, that was a gift to the chinese. the chinese are developing their own approach to trade with regional partners. of our strongt support for the paris accord on climate is another area for the chinese to step into and exercise leadership and take themselves off the hook for some of the obligations they have made. steps, taken a number of and human rights is a good example, trade agreements are a good example, climate is a good example, where we open up a vacuum for the chinese to step in. charlie: do you know what they want? to: the north koreans want get to a point where the world recognizes them as a nuclear power. i think tha

trump has nothing but praise. on so many things that i want to let anybody -- let everybody know that we are very much behind. the president has done a fantastic job in a difficult situation. we are very much behind egypt. say to you that you have a great friend and ally in the united states and in me. world he was the first leader to congratulate trump on his election victory back in november. today he returned that complement. >> since we met i have had a deep appreciation and admiration for your unique personality, especially as you have taken a strong stance against terrorism to counter this ideology. anchor: fighting isis wasn't the only discussion. reporter: president lcc and on trump had their first meeting before trump was even elected president. when the trump administration settled in the white house, his name came up in the first press reefing. thearlier in the day president spoke with egyptian president a la cc -- getting extra military aid from is a priority for el-sisi. >> i think the key topics on t

president trump has definitely made a statement that he wants america to exercise global leadership. he is acting decisively and responsibly with a moral underpinning to it. i'm absolutely convinced he has come to the conclusion when america is exercising this global leadership, the world and america is a safer place and when that leadership is weak as it was during the last eight years in my view and when we disengage from the world, we embolden our adversaries and we weaken the relationship with our allies to the point that they start making bad decisions. president trump has spent the first 84 days reassuring our allies around the world in europe, and the far east and middle east that we intend to exercise our leadership role around the world. that's great news for our country and our allies out there. >> kimberly: what does it mean to you personally and for the military people that you speak to, that this president is allowing them to act and engage, giving them the support that they need especially in the field? >> yeah, that's the way it normally is. the last eight years it was

if anything, his admiration for donald trump has grown.beat. they feel like the government isn't on their back. they feel like the jackboot of the government is off their neck, so it gives them a chance to thrive. he promised to revive regions like this — do you think he's doing that? yes, i do. it was trump's hothead temperament that put off american football coach bill when we spoke to him last year. he is bombastic. he is obscene and ijust can't... i don't like the guy. and not only a change of sport but a change of opinion — in these first 100 days, trump has won him over. well, i've changed my mind because he made campaign promises and he came through. and, you know, that's what you want. you want to see that the guy is going to do what he said he's going to do. what about twitter? he needs to stay off of that. i mean, that gets him a lot of trouble. good! a republican who voted for hillary clinton, amber thompson was a staunch trump critic and remains so, but nonetheless applauds his decision to strike syria. even a blind squirrel fi

mr trump has previously called it a hoax mr trump has previ.usly called it a hoax —— mr trump has previouslyd it a hoax. this is washington where crowds have been making their way to the white house to express their concern about climate change and the adminstration‘s plans to roll back measures to curb global to curb global warming. if we don't take care of earth, we don't have anything. we want our next generation to have this planet that has not been reported by corporations. in defence of our environment, for the climate, because we need to do it and we believe that. the president will not be marking his hundred days in washington. he has been downplaying the importance of the marker. this is how donald trump assessed how he has been doing. actually believe the first 100 days of my administration has been just about the most successful in our country's history. the most fundamental change can be found on the relationship between the people and their government. for too long, politicians cared more about special interest tha n politicians cared more about special interest than they did ve

for 100 days, president trump has been keeping the promises he made to you and every american. .t has been 100 days of action 100 days of consequence. 100 days that we remember as the days we began to make america great again. [cheering] vice pres. pence: president trump's leadership inspires me every single day. while less wing -- left wing activists and their willing allies in the media -- [booing] vice pres. pence: while they had been ignoring the facts and spreading that fake news, the american people know the truth. the truth is president trump has been relentlessly deliberating -- delivering on the promises he made to the american people. and america is back. [cheering] vice pres. pence: since before president trump took office, he has been fighting for american jobs and american workers. for the past 100 days, he has been slashing through red tape. he has signed more bills that cut job killing regulations than any president in american history. he approved the keystone and dakota pipelines. drilling,up offshore and he has put america back on the path of energy independence. und

trump, who once called nato obsolete. and he said during his talks over the last two days he has had with president trump, he feels reassuredted to nato, and he said that he would try to urge nato members to contribute more money, which is one thing that president trump has been calling for. he wants countries to spend 2% of their gdp on defence, which is something america already does. he feels that not enough is being spent by nato allies. and he believes that nato, and he thought that, nato should do more to fight terrorism, and it seems the nato secretary general has reassured donald trump on that front, and donald trump on that front, and donald trump on that front, and donald trump said today that he felt that nato was doing more to fight terrorism, and that is something the allies could do together. but during that press conference, there were also some extraordinary words to do with syria and russia. when it came to bashar al—assad, when asked about whether or not president trump was correct to send those 59 tomahawk missiles to hit that syrian air base last week, donald trump said he made the right decision, and de

there are some things president trump has done. particularly with border security that i'm very much in favor of. you have some other things dealing with regulatory reform that hopefully will free up the american economy to explode and increase wains for american citizens, while improving the labor participation rate which is pretty much at a low since the 1970s. so there are some things i'm very encouraged about. but as in politics, you'll have agreements and disagreements. that's the nature of it. >> the president has been will singling out, saying they were the buns derailed this health care plan. stayingreedom caucus will hurt the entire republican agenda if they don't get on the team and fast. we must fight them and the dems in 2018. that is in addition to him saying that if they don't do that, if they don't get on board, he will work the democrats. how do you feel about him going of a your colleagues? >> well, i'm proud to have helped take whatever credit i'm deserving of for having helped kill a bad piece of completion would

since president trump took office this congress has sent 29 bills to his desk. that is the most for a president's first 100 days in office since 1949. nearly half of these measures are measures to take excessive regulations off the book so we can grow this economy. after years of workers and industries bracing for the next regulatory onslaught, all the unpredictability that has been coming with that, we are providing relief for energy jobs, for small businesses, for retirees. it has been an estimated that the steps we have take within this administration will save families and businesses more than $67 billion. that is real relief and that promotes real economic growth. we've been trying to cut red tape for years and now it's finally happening at record levels. all to promote job creation. the president has signed bills making it easier for women to pursue stem careers and to become entrepreneurs. to help our veterans. the president has signed a bill to lower out-of-pocket costs and to take steps toward fundamental v.a. reform, very much in need. we're going to k

strong enough, because it comes from donald trump. he has so farsaid comes from donald trump. on regime change. if anything, he said he will partner with russia, we will get rid of islamic state, so it is very much saying you can't get away with anything. i agree with that. something had to be done. this can't continue forever. no. just to bring in xijinping. i can't imagine he is happy about this. no. for no other reason that it will overshadow the big important summit. absolutely, and given how much pressure donald trump is putting on him about north korea. to the point that he told the corps that if they don't support it, we might go at north korea ourselves, and that ties in with what he has done here. he needs to be taken what he has done here. he needs to be ta ken seriously. what he has done here. he needs to be taken seriously. in ten seconds, can the two — donald trump mentioned the start of a great relationship? you would hope so because trade is on the agenda and if there is a trade war between the biggest economies, we will all feel that. we need the biggest econom

i have been encouraged to see the kind of commitment that president trump has had on following through on the promises he made the american people. getting our economy back on track. getting rid of regulations that are killing jobs in america. if you look at what has already happened, and we are already not on day 100. news is a lot of really good things have happened in the first 100 days. there are still more things that are good that are set to happen. overlook at the economy, 500,000 new jobs have been created in this first 100 days. of president set a tone getting the economy back on track and helping create more jobs, including signing 13 different pieces of legislation into law that reverse bad regulation that would killing jobs in america. helping rebuild the coal industry. helping getting federal agencies off of the backs of american workers. green lighting the keystone pipeline. president trump with that one theon of green lighting keystone pipeline created tens of thousands of jobs and insured energy security. trump has followed through on many commitments making sure we are

the headlines: president trump has called for new un sanctions on north korea over its nuclear and missilence has entered a period of intense political campaigning between emmanuel macron and marine le pen, the two remaining candidates for the presidency. marine le pen has announced she is stepping aside as party leader of the national front. as forces in syria move towards the stronghold of the extremist group the so—called islamic state, territory held by is is being retaken, including dabiq, which featured heavily in propaganda videos. anzac day services are being held. peggy whitson has broken the record for the number of days spent in space by an american astronaut, beating the previous record of 53a days. she is also the first woman to command the international space station on two missions. now on bbc news, it is time for hardtalk.

>> the key i think -- the support donald trump has is unique and unprecedented. o we should be careful in making any kind of predictions about it. but what i wonder, what is coming through is that trump is governing as a pretty traditional republican. the things he seems like he will be able to do are things like tax cuts, deregulation. corporate tax cuts, corporate deregulation, maybe the repeal of obamacare, as far as i can tell that is what the freedom caucus wants, what the washington think tanks and the conservative movement wants. but it was not his base, his base was a more nationalist protectionist populous base. and steve bannonreflected that. once you do this tax cut which adds $4.5 trillion to the deficit, i don't think there is even a ghost of a chance of even a modest infrastructure bill passed. happened to that movement who is trying to find some of the campaign promises fulfilled. instead what they're finding is the american heritage foundation and all the right wing movements, they're getting the payout but they did not elect trump. >> can we talk

i also thought charlie it was interesting to see donald trump who for 18 months has been rails against nato saying nato is obsolete and will you forgive me, i'm a former ambassador to nato 6789 and today done all trump said nato is no longer obsolete. he said nato used to not be fighting terrorism. and now is fighting terrorism. nato wasn't spending enough, and now they are on track to spend more. so he tried to put a positive gloss on these issues where he has been extremely critical. and it may be we're seeing the reconsidering, we'll see, of the administration. maybe these establishment figures like jim mattis at defense and hr mcmaster, general mcmaster and rex tillerson are winning some of the policy battles at the white house. >> rose: this is interesting because your colume says sm of the similar things am you two seem to be on the same page. >> i agree with what nick said in that colume this morning, charlie, i quoted tom donlon who was national security advisor for president obama who thought the strike on syria was appropriate. but said the changes on policy on russia, china

ian: she has said that, and she is still in her job, so i do believe that is the case. trumpself has made none of those statements and has taken every opportunity to say no. charlie: other people in the administration have been tougher on russia. ian: there is clearly an enormous split within the trump administration on how to handle russia. charlie: matus has been tougher. ian: tillerson has been less so. the u.s.-russian relationship in the last 24 hours has deteriorated more quickly i would argue than at any point under the obama administration. absolutely. charlie: in the past 24 hours? sure, p really on the basis of the syrian issue. basis of thethe syrian issue. charlie: it is what the president has said he might to and the way he has approached the syrian issue. ian: it is virtually a 180 degrees shift. two days ago, you had the trump administration saying there is no way to get rid of assad. charlie: and now people are giving him a huge amount of applause for doing this. mccain andohn lindsey graham. john mccain said i don't care what the russians do in reaction . my

the trump administration has made this a key pa rt trump administration has made this a key part of itsicy, that china does have the ability to pressure north korea into changing its ways. the chinese have given implication is that they are prepared to push a bit harder. anderson said that china had warned the north koreans that there would be sanction to the was another nuclear test. they are working together. at the same time, the chinese said it can all be nervous and is not all north korea either, because the united states is raising the pensions. if the south koreans and the americans have joint military actions, that means that the north koreans feel threatened, so they want that to stop. the american said they will not stop. the chinese believe that there should be an immediate move to negotiations, that things should be dampened down with the negotiations. the americans want action on denuclearisation first. the chinese ambitions are not the same as the americans. but, they have been working together closer than they have the i think. on saturday, donald trump marks 100 days in

trump has said he will take on north korea. has happened in syria. trump has done a 180 on his policy towards syria in a matter of days and has done things where he has condemned others. north korea is a much more geopolitically menacing presence. simple solutions to that problem not going to work and will create a domino effect. you have to hope that trump got that message. china can sit quiet over syria despite it being an ally. they cannot sit quiet over north korea. that is right on the border and there is no easy solution in north korea. do you want the collapse of north korea? north korea does not want that and borders china or south korea. china doesn't want south korea on its border. south korea doesn't want to pick up the mess. rachel, how do you see it? i found this meeting was interesting in terms of reminding me about the meeting with angela merkel. trump has been dissing china throughout his campaign. terrible china, responsible for america's trade deficit, provocative in its own region. gaming the economy. all kind
