Win or lose, Trump brought several unique qualities to the presidency that his successors ought to emulate.

Then I turn to the Trumpian virtues themselves, the unique approaches that our 45th president has brought to the nation’s highest office, which have helped him succeed, and which could help him—and other presidents—in the future.

When both levees and governments failed in New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina, an organization calling itself the Common Ground Collective formed to become the largest anarchist inspired organization in modern US history. In solidarity with people in New Orleans, Common Ground built medical clinics, distributed aid, formed neighborhood assemblies and created food security through community gardens. The group also defied unjust laws by resisting home demolitions, and defended communities from white militias and police brutality.
