By its unconventional nature, the Trump Presidency has shaken the American constitutional order and raises unprecedented issues. This paper analyzes the relationship between Donald Trump and constitutional law through three perspectives. The first is the extent to which, quite counterintuitively, Trump’s presidency has vivified and increased the volume of constitutional discourse, through the rediscovery of forgotten constitutional provisions and the development of new theories. The second is the extent to which Donald Trump is actually violating constitutional law. Lastly, the paper analyzes the ways in which Donald Trump has shaped constitutional law, primarily through his judicial nominations.
