Professor Jeff Stein joined us by phone just after the 7:30 news to chat about President Trump's first 100 days. Jeff says that perhaps it no so much as to what has been passed thru Congress in the first 100 days but President Trump's "Undoing" of a bunch of regulations mandated by President Obama through executive order.
