It's a nice dream, but it's never going to happen.

It just isn't done, our two parties are more of the same entrenched power system than they are of separate values, unfortunately.

And, even if a president really really wanted to, they are told upon oath of office those things that they can and cannot do.

That is my solemn belief.
