It’s not hard to see the Trump ‘strategy’ as perceived by the Utahans. Make a few high profile promises and carry them out. His brash shoot from the hip style might suggest a string man who makes tough decisions. The reality of a president who by one estimate had had 120 days’ holiday in his first few months and who failed to get a single piece of legislation through for months, suggests something different. His refusal to back CHIP at the moment, defying his own party yet again as well as democrats, threatens to close down the federal govt for the first time since republicans tried to shaft ACA in 2012. Whether that is good news for republicans in the polls as they seek to maintain their majority in both houses is not certain. And without that, one of the main obstructions to impeachment looks less of an obstacle.
As for ‘Trump hasn’t changed’ well, same potty mouth but different in outlook in many ways. His foreign policy has changed with the recent announcement of a long term commitment in Syria, for example, and next week he’s off to Davos, of all places: the bete noire of his core voters.
The only thing that will save Trump is results: purely and simply. If people think he’s done a good job assuming he lasts that long. The current impression among some of him as a decisive and constant leader - laughable but ok if enough people think it - won’t be good enough when the time comes

It is a little bit sad that all Trumpkins seem to be able to credit their beloved figurehead with is "annoying liberals" (especially as there are vast numbers of conservatives among his enemies).
I was sure Trump would be out by the end of his first year and was manifestly wrong. I dearly hope that we won't need to put up with another term of rule by an emotionally incontinent, unstable yahoo but the U.S. electoral system is much easier on incumbents than on challengers, so the odds are in his favour if he runs.
Even if he does go, we'll end up stuck with Pence. Who is just a different shade of horrible.

As an outsider this has been an amusing period – watching all the knickers knotting, the bottom lips dragging, and the gaskets blowing on a regular basis. Never in recent history has a man been so reviled and so lambasted – whether justified or not - because where Mr Trump is concerned justification isn’t a consideration; neither is the honesty of the only too willing ‘lambasters’. No facet of his life is left untouched and unsullied, and never a word leaves his lips that isn’t twisted in whichever way it can be twisted. I swear his opponents are in competition to see which of them is the most spiteful and the most vitriolic – and I’m still waiting to see all those smoking guns that for over a year we’ve been assured will surface imminently.
Personally, whether or not he is re-elected matters not to me – I fully expected someone to have taken a pot shot at him within the first month or so – but if he is re-elected, then so be it. The one thing in his favour, as far as I’m concerned, is that he cares about his country – and that’s not a bad thing.
