Chester Alan Arthur, the 21st President of the United States, faced several difficulties during his political career, particularly concerning his reputation and the challenges of reforming the patronage system. Initially associated with the corrupt practices of the Republican Party, he struggled to distance himself from the "Stalwart" faction. His presidency was marked by the need to address civil service reform, culminating in the Pendleton Act, which aimed to curb patronage. Additionally, Arthur's health issues, including a diagnosis of Bright's disease, affected his ability to govern effectively.
