Things that can be done immediately, or within first year

Immediate
-Get out of the way of Dakota Access Pipeline
-Potentially the same thing for Keystone XL (sorry Buffett)
-Pass tax reform bill that lowers the corporate tax rate to competitive among the developed world
-Unwind onerous financial regulations like the Volcker rule
-Alleviate regulatory constraints imposed on coal
You need Ryan for some of the legislative stuff to get deals done, but let's return the favor and ram shite through.
Longer term (2 years)
-Repeal and Replace Obamacare
-Immigration reform
-Clean house with VA
Longer term issues related to Congress can be used as wedge issues to put pressure on Democrats in 2 years. I believe they have a ton of Senate seats up for grabs in 2018...something like 24, but I'm not sure.
Feels weird man.
Feel free to add some others.

If Trump is serious about renegotiating trade deals and bringing manufacturing back to the US, the country is going to have to become more energy-independent and less reliant on OPEC countries. The pipelines will open and the drilling moratorium in the GOM will be lifted.

First up, well before he is in office... Call a meeting with business leaders and put in a plan to move some jobs back here and HOW to get it done within the first 100 days.
There is nothing that keeps him from meeting with leaders that we trade with and say, this is a needed change.
NAFTA has to be reworked. Start now!
