Ryan McMaken joins John Stossel to grade President Trump’s first year of his second term. They walk through the biggest issues shaping the country—government efficiency, spending and the national debt, trade and tariffs, energy policy, and border enforcement—highlighting where the administration has delivered, where it’s fallen short, and what the long-term implications may be. What’s changed, what’s hype, and which moves actually matter beyond the headlines?
