Days Conference&rdquo; hosted by USC Dornsife&rsquo;s Department of Political Science and Jesse M. Unruh Institute of Politics.<\/p>\n<p>In the first of two articles exploring issues raised at the conference, we look at &ldquo;Trump at Home.&rdquo; Taking part in the April 26 panel discussion on Trump&rsquo;s domestic policy were USC Dornsife&rsquo;s Jane Junn, professor of political science, and Matthew Kahn, professor of economics, spatial sciences and environmental studies; Ron Christie, BBC political commentator and a former special assistant to President George W. Bush; Ron Klain, former chief of staff to Joe Biden and Al Gore and a former Clinton 2016 adviser; and Abel Maldonado, former lieutenant governor of California (2010-11).<\/p>\n<p>USC Dornsife&rsquo;s Morris Levy, assistant professor of political science, moderated.<\/p>\n<p><strong>An unorthodox beginning?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Noting that the Trump campaign was unlike any other in modern American history, Levy opened the discussion by asking whether the president&rsquo;s first 100 days mirrored the campaign&rsquo;s unconventional nature.<\/p>\n<p>For Klain, three things stood out. First, despite important opportunities for bipartisanship stemming from the fact he is the president least beholden to a major political party in 50 years, Trump has governed so far as a traditional Republican.<\/p>\n<p>Second, Klain said he was surprised at the degree to which Trump has abandoned his economic populist agenda in the first 100 days. &ldquo;On Oct. 22, he outlined a &hellip; plan of 10 things that were economically related, and said he&rsquo;d try to get it done in the first 100 days. Nine of them he didn&rsquo;t even send to Congress in the first 100 days, let alone get done,&rdquo; Klain said.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-image-landscape news-image-right\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/migration-uploads\/Trump1-2-2599.jpg\" alt=\"Landscape Right\" width=\"450\"><\/p>\n<p>Director of the&nbsp;Unruh Institute of Politics&nbsp;Robert Shrum was among those attending the conference.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Third, he addressed staffing. &ldquo;There&rsquo;s never been a modern president who&rsquo;s done less in terms of staffing his government in the first 100 days than Donald Trump,&rdquo; Klain said. &ldquo;That will have consequences if there&rsquo;s some kind of crisis.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Maldonado defended Trump&rsquo;s staffing issues, but agreed it was risky. &ldquo;[Trump] is a business man first, you have to understand where he comes from,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;This is a man who was running a multi-billion-dollar company with 30 people &hellip; probably a third of [whom] were his family &hellip;. I&rsquo;d venture to guess that he sees that as savings for the Federal government when it comes to resources.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Maldonado said not understanding the Federal government is a huge operation was a mistake he believed Trump would correct.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Communication and credibility<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Levy asked whether Trump has damaged his credibility though staffing issues, infighting and what Christie described as &ldquo;the Twitter presidency.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Klain clearly felt he has.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Even Republicans say he&rsquo;s the most dishonest president we&rsquo;ve had in modern times,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;He lies almost every day. That is not a good thing for a president, and even if some of those lies rally his supporters and appease his voters &hellip;, ultimately it erodes his credibility as president, and there will come a day when he will want that credibility and it won&rsquo;t be there &hellip;.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>While Junn thought Trump&rsquo;s communication style might benefit him with his most fervent supporters, she did not think it would be help him with informed political observers.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Over time, if the President continues to provide commentary such as the former president wire-tapped him, or other elements that are equally as derisive, divisive, accusatory or defensive, I think there can be a long-term deleterious effect &hellip;.,&rdquo; she warned. &ldquo;That will be important in 2018.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Tax reform<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kahn noted that economists could not be sure of the economic consequences of Trump&rsquo;s proposed tax reforms.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;I think the tax reform President Trump is pushing will increase income inequality. Will we also get the economic growth that&rsquo;s promised?&rdquo; Kahn said. &ldquo;When the experts know that they don&rsquo;t know what we will get from a policy, how do you proceed?&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Klain noted that Trump promised voters a middle class tax cut. &ldquo;Something like that probably would have bipartisan support. But if his agenda really is a bunch of corporate tax breaks &#8230; he&rsquo;s going to find a lot of fighting on Capitol Hill.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/migration-uploads\/Trump1-3-2599.jpg\" alt=\"Landscape Left\"><\/p>\n<p>Jane Junn, professor of political science, makes a point.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dealing with Congress <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Christie said a growing rift is starting to develop behind the scenes between congressional and White House Republicans.<\/p>\n<p>Levy noted one of the signature pieces of advice in Trump&rsquo;s book, <em>The Art of the Deal<\/em>, is to arrive with a proposal that goes beyond what you expect to get, and always be ready to walk away from the table.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;A couple of times we&rsquo;ve seen Trump do what was once unthinkable, which is to pull the plug on something [and] back off,&rdquo; he said. &ldquo;We saw that on the &lsquo;repeal and replace Obamacare,&rsquo; and we recently saw it on the negotiations to avoid a government shut-down, where it seems that Trump has backed off the wall, at least as something that he&rsquo;s insisting on immediately.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>What does this kind of strategy do to a president&rsquo;s bargaining position vis-a-vis Congress?<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;To be a successful president, you have to get things done,&rdquo; said Klain. &ldquo;To get things done in Washington &hellip; you have to make deals. And so far, he&rsquo;s been unwilling or unable to do that.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Maldonado recalled his own political experiences in Sacramento in the late &rsquo;90s and how, despite tough rhetoric, at the end of the day Democrats and Republicans were friends.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;You look at Washington today, everything is a fight &hellip; everything is about party, not country. And [Trump&rsquo;s] dealing with that,&rdquo; said Maldonado, noting that he saw the biggest problem facing America today as partisanship.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Once he figures that out, maybe he&rsquo;ll say, &lsquo;We&rsquo;ve got to change the course here and get the job done.&rsquo; Either he&rsquo;s going to do it, or the American people are going to force him to by giving the House to the other party.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p><strong>An uncertain future?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, Christie said Trump&rsquo;s White House needs to recognize the campaign is over.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;It&rsquo;s time to govern &hellip; I want him to succeed. But he&rsquo;s got to move beyond promises to his base, to promises to the American people.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Christie and Maldonado expressed confidence that the government would be running more smoothly in a year&rsquo;s time.<\/p>\n<p>Klain said that depended on staffing. &ldquo;I will say, he&rsquo;s picked some good people. He&rsquo;s picked some horrible people, too, and mostly he hasn&rsquo;t picked people at all. So, it&rsquo;s kind of hard to know what it&rsquo;s going to look like once he starts picking more people.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>However, Klain also warned against underestimating Trump. &ldquo;It&rsquo;s still in his power to change direction and &hellip; correct the course that his presidency is on. Will he do it? &hellip; I don&rsquo;t know that he even knows. But he still has 1,360 days to fix what was wrong in the first 100.&rdquo;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dornsife.usc.edu\/news\/stories\/2600\/conference-examines-president-trumps-first-100-days-in-office-pa\/\"><em>Read part 2 of this article<\/em><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the first of two articles on President Donald Trump\u2019s first 100 days in office, a panel of experts hosted by USC Dornsife\u2019s Department of Political Science and Jesse M.
