Trump to hold rally in Michigan next week to celebrate first 100 days

President Trump is set to visit Michigan to hold a rally and celebrate his first 100 days back in office.

“President Trump is excited to return to the great state of Michigan next Tuesday, where he will rally in Macomb County to celebrate the FIRST 100 DAYS!” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt wrote in a post on the social platform X.

Rep. John James (R-Mich.), who represents Macomb County, welcomed Trump in a post online.

“Macomb County is honored to welcome President @realDonaldTrump back to MICHIGAN to celebrate the first 100 days of America’s New Golden Age,” James said. “Together, we will Make Michigan Great Again.”

Trump’s rally will be held Tuesday, his 100th day in the Oval Office after being inaugurated on Jan. 20.

It’s his first visit to the battleground state since he won it in the 2024 election; his last visit to the state was a rally in Grand Rapids the night before Election Day.

His rally comes after Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) visited with the president twice at the White House. Whitmer has discussed jobs and Trump’s tariffs. She was swept up in a social media frenzy after she hid her face from reporters during a surprise photo opportunity in the Oval Office. 

The first 100 days of a president’s time in office is a traditional marker for how the president plans to move through the next four years of their administration. The actions taken, often bold, within the first 100 days of a new administration are viewed as an evaluation of the performance of the president.
