In a short video clip974 Archives President-elect Donald Trump finally shared some insight on what his presidency will look like Monday. He posted the message not on his favorite platform Twitter, but in a YouTube clip.

The video, which dropped in the evening, included his plans for the first 100 days in office and the White House transition.

Trump kept it vague about who will be part of his cabinet and administration, with just the hint that he's looking at "truly great and talented men and women." However, he jumped into a few more details on his goals for trade, energy, government regulation, jobs and more.

He said his agenda is based on the core principle of "putting America first." As for Day 1, he hopes to "restore our laws and bring back our jobs." In what felt like the only candid moment of the scripted video, Trump interjected, "It's about time!" when talking about job creation.

Some specifics he listed for his First 100 Days include withdrawing from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, changing energy restrictions, looking into visa abuse, and working to "drain the swamp" by imposing a five-year ban on lobbying. He said he's ready to make America great again for everyone -- "and I mean everyone."

In a departure from traditional policy announcements, Trump's first presidential message was delivered via YouTube and not through the press. He has yet to hold a post-election press conference since he was elected nearly two weeks ago.

Plenty of people on Twitter also noticed that Trump's goals for his first days in office didn't include building a wall along the Mexican border.

He promised to share more updates in the coming days. So keep your eyes peeled on the "Transition 2017" Youtube channel.
