President-elect Donald Trump has had four years to prepare for his second term.

He is reportedly planning to issue over 100 executive orders and other actions on his first day in office.

This early period can often foreshadow what the rest of a president's term may look like, both in terms of their policy priorities and how well they're able to enact their agendas.

The economy was particularly important to independent voters, a group that likely put Trump over the edge in November .

Trump has promised to tackle economic issues as soon as he takes office.

But there are other promises he's promised to take on day one that may prove more divisive.

Only a third of Americans thought Trump would be able to "heal political divisions in this country" in his second term.

Voters as a whole have expressed serious concern over plans by Trump and his allies to expand the power of the executive branch.

The first 100 days will likely offer only a small hint at what Trump 's second term will look like.

For his part, with his now-lengthy career, Trump will undoubtedly prove to have a lasting impact on the country.
