By describing the Congress’ political structure as resulted from the most turbulent presidential campaigns in American constitutional history, the present essay explores the current extraordinarily contentious political environment in the U.S., which makes it likely for the proposed initiatives to face significant political hurdles. Moreover, through a comparison with former Administrations, the Author gives account of the exceptionality of the absence of vetoes under a Presidency and the growing use of executive orders.
