President-elect Donald Trump has told the American people that he is assembling a Cabinet made up of "patriots."

In a just-released video he says his agenda "will be based on a simple core principle: putting America first."

He reiterates a number of his promises for the first 100 days of his administration, including vows to dump the TPP and negotiate new trade deals, remove regulations on businesses and establish a five-year ban on executive officials becoming lobbyists.

Notably missing from his promises is his pledge to repeal the Affordable Care Act and his vow to build a southern border wall with Mexico.

Trump has yet to hold the traditional news conference that previous presidents-elect have done within days of winning on Election Day.
