Donald J. Trump did NOT come up thru the American political system….
A LOT of Americans THOUGHT That was a Good Thing….
A LOT of those people regret This….
Trump HAS worked overtime to redo, ignore and use his usage of executive order’s to ‘RULE’ over the American Federal Government, trying to supersede the legislative B ranch and even trying to get around the Courts…..
With the Democrat’s inline to gain control of Congress….
The wrestling match between Trump and that body begins….
Come 2029?
If a Democratic President gets to come to the Presidency ?
He may actually work against Trump’s time in office….
The future on this IS gonna be complex ….
It WILL take a STRONG effort to get past the Trump ‘Brand’ across the media….
Throughout Washington and beyond, President Donald Trump’s opponents are scrambling to ensure that after he leaves office, the changes he has imposed on the presidency, and the country, will fade with him.
Whether they succeed could determine whether Trump’s aggressive exercise of executive powers will be limited to a finite stretch of U.S. history or will instead become a model for every president to come.
Rep. Jamie Raskin (Maryland), the top Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, said that Trump’s uses of presidential power can and must be reversed — but doing so will take decades.
“We have a massive reconstruction task ahead of us,” Raskin said in an interview. “Fortunately, reconstruction has a great history in our country, and when it’s allowed to work, it has been a lot more successful than either authoritarianism or revolution. … We will have to go department by department, subject by subject, and public purpose by public purpose to determine what we salvage and what we re-create.”…

With a possible recapture of Congress just one month away, Democrats’ efforts to limit the staying power of those changes are heating up….

Some of these proposals may be partly symbolic, aimed at galvanizing voters and showing resistance to Trump rather than serving as strict blueprints for reform. Democrats themselves do not know when, if ever, they may have the public support to push them through. They have no guarantee of success; Trump survived two impeachments, prosecutions and investigations before winning the White House a second time.
Still, the Democrats say they see little alternative to trying…

Some historians say many of Trump’s actions will be hard to reverse. It is far easier to smash through guardrails, they say, than to rebuild them. Most modern presidents have expanded executive power at the expense of Congress. Whether that trend continues could depend in large part on whether the legislative branch begins to reassert itself as a counterweight to the presidency…

Some liberals say Democrats should take a lesson from Trump on how to govern with force and purpose. Trump does not hesitate to take actions that skirt the edges of legality, happy to let the courts sort it out. He pressures private firms to back his policies. He issues sweeping executive orders rather than trying to persuade Congress to act.
“This president litigates the way he bargains: He makes some very far-out claims, not expecting to win them all, but sort of ‘what the hell’ — that’s his theory,” said William A. Galston, a former domestic policy adviser to President Bill Clinton. “If you lose cases no other president would have dreamed of bringing, and you win a few big ones, you’re ahead of the game.”…

The Supreme Court’s path is unclear as well. Some Democrats privately echo a sentiment voiced by Clinton — that the justices may not give future presidents the same leeway they have accorded Trump. The court has already been far more deferential to Trump than it was to Biden, these Democrats say….

“The most important question we face is whether we can return to a consensus that we had among Republicans, Democrats and independents for 140 years that an operating government of our values requires leaders committed to the public good, not the private interests of the officeholder of the day,” Stier said. “Can we get back to that? I think the answer is yes. But we need a public that demands it.”…
