Leading political scientists analyze the presidency of Donald Trump
and its impact on the future of American politics In virtually all
respects, the Trump presidency has disrupted patterns of
presidential governance. However, does Trump signify a disruption,
not merely in political style but in regime type in the United
States? Assessing Trump's potential impact on democratic
institutions requires an analysis of how these
institutions-including especially the executive branch-have
developed over time as well as an examination of the intersecting
evolution of political parties, racial ideologies, and governing
mechanisms. To explore how time and temporality have shaped the
Trump presidency, editors Zachary Callen and Philip Rocco have
brought together scholars in the research tradition of American
political development (APD), which explicitly aims to consider how
interactions between a range of institutions result in the shifting
of power and authority in American politics, with careful attention
paid to complex processes unfolding over time. By focusing on the
factors that contribute to both continuity and change in American
politics, APD is ideally situated to take a long view and help make
sense of the Trump presidency. American Political Development and
the Trump Presidency features contributions by leading political
scientists grappling with the reasons why Donald Trump was elected
and the meaning of his presidency for the future of American
politics. Taking a historical and comparative approach-instead of
viewing Trump's election as a singular moment in American
politics-the essays here consider how Trump's election coincides
with larger changes in democratic ideals, institutional structures,
long-standing biases, and demographic trends. The Trump presidency,
as this volume demonstrates, emerged from a gradual unsettling of
ideational and institutional lineages. In turn, these essays
consider how Trump's disruptive style of governance may further
unsettle the formal and informal rules of American political life.
