Did Trump's Harvard Loss Conceal a Strategic Victory?
Filed by Deacon Rift
It's hard to tell in the middle of a president's term how much he's changing the country. Donald Trump's second presidency has seemed transformative on many fronts - trade, immigration and culture - but he has mostly pursued his objectives through unilateral executive actions rather than legislation. Genuinely transformative presidencies notch achievements that last; Democrats can reverse much of Trump's populist agenda as soon as they retake the White House.
