Donald Trump, lagging behind Hillary Clinton in polls, has outlined what he would do in his first 100 days were he to become US president.<\/p>\n
With 17 days until the election, much of the recent focus has been on controversies linked to his campaign.<\/p>\n
But in a speech in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, he sought to highlight changes he would introduce.<\/p>\n
Among them were restrictions on lobbyists and a renegotiation on trade and climate change deals.<\/p>\n
Mrs Clinton and running mate Tim Kaine are also appearing at events on Saturday in Pennsylvania, a key battleground state in the race for the White House.<\/p>\n
Mr Trump’s advisers indicated before his speech that the measures announced would serve as the focus for the remaining two weeks of his campaign.<\/p>\n
Among the key details he announced were:<\/p>\n
The speech was one of the most detailed by Mr Trump during his candidacy, and also touched on matters of security, economy and trade.<\/p>\n
He said the country was facing a “fork in the road” over its future.<\/p>\n
While some polls have shown he has eaten into Mrs Clinton’s lead over the past week, after the third presidential debate, she is still leading him in a number of the key swing states.<\/p>\n
Before his speech, Mr Trump again attacked leading media outlets and suggested they were biased against him.<\/p>\n
He vowed to break up media conglomerates, saying he would scrap the rumoured purchase of the Time Warner company, the owner of CNN, by AT&T. However, those comments were made outside of his main speech, and it was not clear if they were being put forward as policy.<\/p>\n
Mr Trump also said he would sue every woman who has accused him of sexual assault or inappropriate behaviour as soon as his presidential campaign was over.<\/p>\n
Ten women have come forward to accuse him of inappropriate behaviour, in the weeks after a video emerged of him boasting of groping women and kissing them.<\/p>\n
“Every woman lied when they came forward to hurt my campaign,” he told the audience in Gettysburg.<\/p>\n
He said the media was fabricating stories to make him “look as bad and dangerous as possible”.<\/p>\n
