Summary

The Donald Trump Administration encompasses the 45th and 47th presidencies of the United States, characterized by a focus on economic deregulation, judicial appointments, and significant public health reforms. During the first term (2017–2021), the administration passed record tax cuts, established the Space Force, and replaced NAFTA with the USMCA. In the second term (starting 2025), the administration, through figures like FDA Commissioner Marty Makary, has pushed for an ambitious agenda to accelerate the drug approval process, lower drug prices via 'Most Favored Nation' status, and overhaul nutrition science and vaccine schedules. The administration emphasizes 'America First' policies, energy independence, and a cultural shift within scientific institutions like the NIH to focus on root cause research.
