  • President-elect Donald Trump and his allies have plans to overhaul the federal government after winning the popular vote, but his victory was far from overwhelming. How will Americans react to Trump's changes?

The article from RealClearPolitics features a discussion with Jeffrey Goldberg, editor-in-chief of The Atlantic, on the topic of whether individuals within cabinet departments could potentially obstruct the policies of Donald Trump's nominees if he were to win the presidency again. Goldberg explores the dynamics of bureaucratic resistance, referencing historical examples where government officials have slowed down or altered the implementation of presidential directives. He discusses the tension between loyalty to the administration and the ethical or legal obligations of civil servants, suggesting that while outright defiance might be rare, subtle forms of resistance or bureaucratic inertia could indeed influence policy outcomes. The conversation also touches on the implications for democracy, the rule of law, and the balance of power within the executive branch.
