Trump loves to unexpectedly pull the rug out from under his associates and embrace his opponents. He's done it consistently since the start of his administration.
It's dramatic. It's show biz. It's Trump.
Maybe that behavior had some positive value in the arcane world of a family-owned company operating in New York real estate. But it doesn't work for a president of the United States.
Even his strongest supporters have balked at his embracing Putin.
Here's the problem though: Someone will have to actually beat him in the 2020 election. And look at this pitifully weak field of Democratic contenders. I'm sure Hillary is considering this sad situation and is trying to set herself up as the white knight who will swoop in and reclaim the prize that she says was stolen from her.
