New York Times: “Mr. Trump has told people he wants to sign around 100 executive orders at the outset, including what he has touted as ‘the largest deportation operation in American history,’ starting with ousting undocumented immigrants with criminal records. Aides say he is likely to take an early trip to Southern California to visit areas devastated by the recent fires, and to North Carolina to visit areas flattened by Hurricane Helene last year.”
“The way Mr. Trump sees it, his biggest concern as he heads into a second term is not the Democrats. He is far more worried about his own party. So tight are the G.O.P.’s congressional majorities that it would take only a handful of disobedient Republicans to kill his chances of fulfilling his major campaign promises.”
“Another concern weighing on Mr. Trump is a looming congressional game of chicken over the debt ceiling.”
