Trump administration decision-making examined in new book
A review of the book ‘Regime Change: Inside the Imperial Presidency of Donald Trump’ by Maggie Haberman and Jonathan Swan examines the decision-making dynamics of the second Trump administration.
The text suggests that the administration has structured the White House to prioritize the president’s instincts over traditional institutionalized processes. According to the authors, this setup has insulated the president from opposing views and discouraged internal dissent, resulting in an environment where information is tailored to his specific impulses rather than providing neutral intelligence.
