President Trump is drawing praise from upstate New York Congress member Claudia Tenney for his first 100 days in office. Tenney notes the president has made changes in construction on a border wall, banning what she termed ‘woke’ ideologies in schools, and keeping biological men out of women’s sports.

She adds Trump rescinded what she termed ‘job-killing’ energy policies that focused on renewable power, in favor of more drilling and production of fossil fuels. She concludes in a statement that it’s an honor to work alongside President Trump.

Meanwhile, a PBS/NPR/Marist poll finds 40% of Americans give Trump an A or B for his performance so far. Forty-five percent gave him an F.
