title = {100 Tage Donald J. Trump. Eine frühe Bewertung einer (außer)gewöhnlichen Präsidentschaft},
year = {2017},
note = {Comparing Donald J. Trump’s achievements in his first hundred days
with those of his predecessors in the White House, the picture
regarding the realm of domestic policies looks ambivalent . The
political agenda of the Trump-administration has seen failures (e .g .
executive orders stopped by court ruling on immigration, a failed
attempt to repeal and replace Obamacare), but also some successes such
as the nomination of Neil Gorsuch for the Supreme Court . In all this,
the structural constraints of the presidency in separated institutions
sharing powers are clearly visible . The hyperpolarisation of parties
in Congress is just one element . Moreover, President Trump’s use of
unilateral tools fits into the general trend of presidents trying to
increase their political leverage over the last decades . In these
regards, the Trump presidency looks very similar to others . Uncommon,
on the other side, are the usage of new communication strategies by
the White House to present “alternative facts”, an extremely
polarized public perception of the presidency right from the start of
his term, and the massive conflicts between the administration and
representatives of the mainstream media . Both aspects will clearly
shape the Trump presidency beyond the hundred days’ margin .},
