Trump is not beholden to any special interests, like any President to emerge from the traditional party establishment is. Therefore, Trump puts the entire system of graft and corruption at risk, because he doesn't owe anyone favors. He won't allow lobbyists to write policy, or to dictate regulations. Most importantly, he expects the government to represent the interests of the American people, which is to say he expects that gigantic bureaucracy that runs US Government agencies to put US interests first. As we have seen, large swaths are more interested in damaging the current President than doing the job they were hired to do.
