Republicans control the House and Senate, as well as the White House &#8212; but Democrats struggled to pass key items, like Obamacare, when they were in a similar position eight years ago.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Republicans hold a firm majority in the House, but could struggle in the Senate, where Democrats will hold 48 seats next year, enough to blockade Trump measures.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Trump cast his measures as completely focused on American workers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;Whether it&#8217;s producing steel, building cars, or curing disease, I want the next generation of production and innovation to happen right here, in our great homeland: America &#8212; creating wealth and jobs for American workers,&#8221; Trump said in the two-and-a-half-minute video statement. &#8220;As part of this plan, I&#8217;ve asked my transition team to develop a list of executive actions we can take on day one to restore our laws and bring back our jobs.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Among his first actions, the Republican said he would &#8220;issue our notification of intent to withdraw from the Transpacific Partnership&#8221; and replace it with negotiating &#8220;fair bilateral trade deals.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Trump campaigned on a promise to halt the progress of the TPP trade deal, an agreement President Barack Obama had hoped would be a part of his administration&#8217;s trade legacy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Some of the first international reaction came from Japan&#8217;s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;The TPP without the United States is meaningless,&#8221; he said during a press conference at the APEC summit in Peru on Monday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;Renegotiation is possible, because the TPP without the United States will collapse the balance of the benefit,&#8221; Abe said, according to a translator.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">&#8220;As for the policy of the new US government, I don&#8217;t want to discuss with any assumption.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">On immigration, Trump promised to &#8220;investigate all abuses of visa programs that undercut the American worker,&#8221; but did not mention his signature campaign promise of building a wall along the US border with Mexico.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">The items are all measures he broadly campaigned on, though Trump has begun moderating some of the toughest stances he took on the campaign trail. In an interview with &#8220;60 Minutes,&#8221; he said that he would likely keep key portions of Obamacare.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">And not long after his election win, his campaign took down the web page with his earlier promise to ban all Muslims from entering the country &#8212; he has since moderated that view greatly, but left major questions on how precisely he would limit immigration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Source:\u00a0http:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2016\/11\/21\/politics\/donald-trump-outlines-policy-plan-for-first-100-days\/<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"fb-background-color\">\n\t\t\t  <div \n\t\t\t  \tclass = \"fb-comments\" \n\t\t\t  \tdata-href = \"https:\/\/www.biphoo.com\/bipnews\/news\/donald-trump-outlines-policy-plan-first-100-days.html\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-numposts = \"10\"\n\t\t\t  \tdata-lazy = \"true\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-colorscheme = \"light\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-order-by = \"social\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-mobile=true>\n\t\t\t  <\/div><\/div>\n\t\t  <style>\n\t\t    .fb-background-color {\n\t\t\t\tbackground: #ffffff !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t.fb_iframe_widget_fluid_desktop iframe {\n\t\t\t    width: 630px !important;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t  <\/style>\n\t\t  ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump outlines policy plan for first 100 days Washington (CNN)President-elect Donald Trump unveiled plans Monday for his first 100 days in office, including proposals related to immigration, trade deals and defense policy, using a video published online to briefly outline his proposals.
