This is a myth. By most measures—trade being an important exception—in 2016 Trump ran as a bog-standard conservative Republican on economics: tax cuts for the rich, taking away health care from millions, deregulation, conservative anti-worker judges, opposition to minimum wage increases, etc.

Yet Trump ignored every step, acting unilaterally through executive order, bypassing oversight, and ordering demolition as if he were a monarch. The result: the people’s house, altered without the people’s consent.
