Recently became interested in the trickle down effects of a Presidency and how they influence the country years after leaving office through Macro Policies, Court appointees, local elections, etc. Can anyone recommend readings or additional callouts?

I’m not sure but it’s really interesting how the president can appoint district judges who will be in place for decades to come. Trump has already appointed around 150 I think

Think it was approaching 200, and that was what kinda sparked this interest.

So it’s not Presidency related, but the book The Power Broker by Robert Caro explores this in regards to urban planning and development. A wide array of people from Obama to Conan O’Brien cite it as a major influence on their worldview

I do not think the initial scope of presidency is holistic as there are other top line areas of influence such as senate control and Supreme Court rulings. However, I think presidents will probably be most researched.
