The Fragility and Performance of Democracy in the U.S.: Taking Stock After the First 100 Days of the Trump Administration
On April 24, 2025, the Elections Research Center will host an event to explore the first 100 days of Trump’s presidency. Speakers:
Barry Burden (UW-Madison) “Political Parties and the Governing Crisis”
Donald Moynihan (University of Michigan) “The New Politicization of the Administrative State." Moderated by Susan Yackee (UW-Madison)
Julia Azari (Marquette University) “Whose Message is Trump Delivering? Mandate Claims, Responsiveness, and Trump as GOP Leader." Moderated by Barry Burden
William Howell (Johns Hopkins University) “Presidential Power and the Administrative State." Moderated by Eleanor Powell (UW-Madison)
Vanessa Williamson (Brookings Institution) “Taxation and Democracy in America." Moderated by Amber Wichowsky (UW-Madison)
Intense partisanship, public distrust in institutions, and concerns about government accountability have raised doubts about the sustainability of U.S. democracy. At the 100 day mark of the Trump presidency, this event evaluates both the current situation and the overall health of the American political system. Please join us to hear from a panel of experts on how to evalute the first 100 days of the Trump administration!
Location: Howard Auditorium in the Fluno Center or virtual via zoom
