Abstract

While Donald Trump leads the current Republican primary field, most commentators believe that his likelihood of ascending to the presidency next January is fairly slim. But what if Trump did win? Would he be able to govern effectively? Michael A. Livermore argues that without his party’s backing, a President Trump would have enormous problems managing the executive branch. He writes that without a large and competent group of loyal party personnel to manage the executive bureaucracy, a Trump administration would be faced with one policy disaster after another.
