Donald Trump plans blitz of executive orders for first days in White House

Donald Trump and his top advisers are finalising about 100 executive actions that he will sign in his first days in office beginning on Monday, as the incoming president rushes to enact his populist and nationalist agenda.

The first measures by Trump, who has vowed to be a dictator only “on day one” of his second term, are set to include curbing immigration, increasing tariffs and deregulating sectors ranging from energy to cryptocurrencies.
