It’s been a dizzying two weeks since Donald Trump was inaugurated as America’s 45th president. After a celebratory smorgasbord of dozens of inaugural balls, Trump set into the work of governing, signing a flurry of executive orders, phoning world leaders, hosting a joint press-conference with British Prime Minister Theresa May and nominating Judge Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court of the United States. His actions have been met with an onslaught of protest and confusion—massive nationwide demonstrations the day after his inauguration have carried on to a spirit of unrest in many corners of the country, perhaps foreboding the uncertainty of the four years to come. Here, a closer look at the first two weeks of the Trump presidency.
