Donald Trump issued a sharp comment towards voters who have turned critical of him following his first 100 days back in the Oval Office.

Trump celebrated his 100th day as the 47th President of the United States yesterday (April 29), and to mark the occasion, he spoke all about his accomplishments so far in an interview with ABC News' Terry Moran.

The president spoke on everything from his action on illegal border crossings to the cost of eggs, but it was while talking about one move in particular that Trump issued a reminder to those who voted for him in the 2024 election.

During the interview, Moran raised the topic of the economy and described it as the 'number one issue for so many people'.

He pointed to the trade war with China, which saw Trump implement huge and rapidly increasing tariffs against the country, and noted that analysts have suggested the tariffs are going to 'cost American families thousands of more dollars per year'.

"There is a lot of concern out there," Moran said. "People are worried, even some people who voted for you, sayin', "I didn't sign up for this." So how do you answer those concerns?"

Trump's answer came in the form of eight sharp words, as he said: "Well, they did sign up for it, actually."

The president went on to argue that the economy was 'what [he] campaigned on', claiming that the US had been 'abused by other countries at levels that nobody's ever seen before' and it was 'not sustainable'.

He continued: "So now if you look at what's happened - energy is down. Gasoline hit $1.98 in a few states - during the last couple of days. It was $3.50 and $4.00 and $4.50. But gasoline is way down. And when I took over, you remember the big thing with eggs?...

"Well, eggs are down 87% since I got involved."

The president insisted everyone was 'gonna be just fine', adding: "It's all heading in the right direction."

Trump's comments come after approval ratings for the president released by a joint ABC News/Washington Post/Ipsos poll revealed that the businessman has the lowest 100-day job approval rating of any president in the past 80 years, with 55 percent of people saying they disapprove of how Trump is handling his job as president.

Meanwhile, a New York Times and Siena College poll revealed an approval rating of just 42 percent, with 66 percent of respondents describing his second term so far as 'chaotic'.
