Is Trump now “dictator”-in-chief?

TRUMP100

News Commentary Government Politics

Is Donald Trump increasingly acting like a dictator as he power grabs and overreaches on independent institutions?

Plus - he's firing people again. Why?

Mark Stone reflects on seeing an immigration raid in DC - and what this means for a community with the army on the streets.

And, we reflect on the mass shooting in Minneapolis, Minnesota, which claimed the lives of two children and injured 18 other people as they prayed in a church before school.

If you've also got a question you'd like the Trump100 team to answer, you can email it to trump100@sky.uk.

You can also watch all episodes on our YouTube channel.

Watch Mark Stone's full piece on the ICE raids on YouTube and on the SkyNews website.
