But in a rare departure, the now President-elect personally vetted, edited and partly drafted the Republican platform adopted at the Milwaukee convention in July. The document, marked by policy statements in upper case, hyperbole and rhetorical flourishes, bears Trump's unmistakable signature and offers the clearest glimpse into his vision for America. While Trump's disdain for deliberative policymaking and reliance on "instinct" makes policy prediction risky, the party platform, combined with his first term record and campaign speeches, outlines five key domestic priorities:

Battling inflation

Trump's anti-inflation strategy centers on expanding American energy production, despite oil and gas output already being at record levels. His "drill, baby, drill" policy and plans to boost nuclear energy production are key to his plans. The platform promises regulatory cuts and reduced government spending - though it's unclear how this squares with commitments to maintain social security and welfare. It also emphasizes geopolitical stability as key to price control.
