Day One: Trump says he will sign 'very meaningful' documents amid talk of executive orders

Donald Trump is ready to "get the show going."

Less than 24 hours before he is inaugurated as the 45th President of the United States, Trump told supporters at a luncheon at his Washington hotel Thursday that he is preparing to use the presidential pen to sign some "very meaningful" documents.

"We will be signing some papers that will be very meaningful tomorrow right after the speech to get the show going," Trump said,

Press Secretary Sean Spicer said Trump is planning to sign a series of executive orders beginning Friday, though Spicer said Trump is "still working through which ones he wants to deal with tomorrow versus Monday or Tuesday."

"The President-elect is continuing to get briefed on some of the orders he wants to do and the sequencing thereof," Spicer said. "I think you'll see some activity on both tomorrow, over the weekend and then Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday."

Trump aides have said that Trump will sign ceremonial and logistical executive orders on Friday, but have also left the door open to more policy-oriented actions and announcements in Trump's first 12 hours in office. Trump on the campaign trail vowed a flurry of action on his first day as president, including a pledge to "cancel immediately all illegal and overreaching executive orders."

Trump also vowed he would impose a "moratorium on new agency regulations" across the federal government.
