You have a super majority in all branches of government, you don't need to consider other parties.
Where do you start, and what is your overall stratergy?
Will you get a second term?
I would immediately begin searching for and hiring the smartest people in every field to help me to make my decisions. The best economists, scientists, biologists, climatologists, foreign policists, etc. I am not smart enough to be POTUS and that's exactly who the POTUS should be, someone who is willing to listen and do what is best based on proper advice.
Counterpoint:
I do think USA would benefit from a giant dome, don't you?
My mentor always said: "If you are the smartest person in the room, you need to find another room"
I always remembered that
Also: You described Plato's Philosopher King
That is my life motto as well, although I say, "if you are the smartest person in the room, you're in the wrong room" and I live by that.
How would you determine who those are?
First I'd hire the best recruiter in the country...
But seriously, with difficulty. Lots of research.
