Mr. Trump plans to issue over 25 presidential orders on his first day in office.

President-elect Trump plans to demonstrate his influence as the new president on his first day in office on January 20, next year, by issuing a series of executive orders and directives covering all issues from illegal immigration to energy.
According to multiple sources, on his first day in office, he plans to issue at least 25 orders, with plans to issue more in the following days to weeks.
The following is what we know so far.
<Tariffs>
One of the moves expected on the first day of the presidency or shortly after the start of the administration is to fully implement the act of raising tariffs on imports from major trading partners as an act of intimidation.
Mr. Trump believes that tariffs will stimulate U.S. economic growth, but there are opposing views that strongly question the risk of passing on the costs to the final consumers in terms of price.
<Energy>
According to multiple sources familiar with the transition team's plans, Mr. Trump is considering issuing a series of presidential orders targeting everything, from electric vehicles (EV) to international frameworks for climate change, such as the Paris Agreement, within a few days after taking office.
Documentation confirmed by Reuters shows that members of the transition team are proposing radical policy changes, such as cutting support for EVs and charging stations, and strengthening measures to block imports of automobiles, components, and rechargeable battery materials from China.
The same team is also recommending efforts to increase domestic production by imposing tariffs on all rechargeable battery materials imported from around the world. They suggest engaging in individual negotiations with allied countries for exemptions after the introduction of tariffs.
When issuing executive orders, President Biden is likely to pursue the repeal of various climate change regulations imposed on power plants, as well as the lifting of the export ban on liquefied natural gas (LNG). Moreover, regarding air pollution control, states like California seem to aim at revoking special measures that allow them to impose stricter regulations than the federal government.
<Illegal Immigration>
The majority of the actions planned by President Trump on his first day in office are aimed at strengthening enforcement against illegal immigration and executing the pledge to deport the largest number of undocumented immigrants in history.
In November, Reuters reported that federal immigration officials will be granted expanded powers to arrest people with no criminal record, with plans to increase troops at the Mexican border and resume construction of the border wall.
President Trump is expected to declare the illegal immigration issue a national emergency to shift some of the defense budget towards border wall construction. In November, he hinted at redirecting military forces as part of the plan to deport undocumented immigrants through his social networking site 'Truth Social.'
President Trump also aims to end the temporary entry permit policy introduced by President Biden's Democratic administration. This policy has allowed hundreds of thousands of immigrants from specific countries to enter legally and obtain work permits for humanitarian reasons.
Furthermore, President Trump has pledged to abolish the automatic granting of citizenship to children born in the United States to parents with illegal residency. According to aides, he is preparing an executive order to fulfill this promise.
However, the 14th Amendment to the Constitution states, 'All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States,' hence, there could be potential legal battles if there is an attempt to abolish birthright citizenship.
<Amnesty>
Additionally, Mr. Trump may issue a presidential decree granting amnesty to some of those involved in the January 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol shortly after taking office. The details are unclear, but Mr. Trump has already announced his intention to address this on his first day in office.
