The End of the Rhetorical Presidency? Public Leadership in the
Trump Era explores one of the most disruptive aspects of the Trump
presidency. Since the FDR administration, presidents developed the
capacity and skill to use the public to influence the legislative
arena, gain reelection, survive scandal and secure their legacy.
Consequently, presidential rhetorical leadership has its own norms
and expectations. Comparing President Trump's communications
apparatus as well as rhetoric (including Twitter) to previous
presidents, Diane Heith demonstrates how Trump exercises leadership
by adhering to some of these norms and expectations, but rejects,
abandons and undermines most. Heith argues that his individual,
rather than institutional, approach to leadership represents a
change in tone, language and style. She concludes that the loss of
skill and capacity represents a devolution of the White House
institution dedicated to public leadership, especially in the
legislative arena. More significantly, the individual approach
emphasizes weakening the ability of the press and other political
elites to hold the president accountable. This book will appeal to
students and scholars of the presidency as well as general readers
who quest for a deeper understanding of the Trump White House.
