Why Trump hopes the new Trump sticks

A Trump adviser says that after a tumultuous seven months in office, it had finally dawned on the president: "People really f@&@ing hate me." For someone who has spent his life lapping up adulation, however fake, it was a harsh realization. This is a man with an especially acute need for affirmation.

This week's bear hug of Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer opened Trump's eyes to one solution: Stop doing things that people hate, and start striking deals.

Who knows if this will stick. But there's reason to think it might, according to Trump's friends and aides. Here's why, based on conversations Jonathan Swan and I had in the aftermath of the surprising deal:

   Good Article.

He can liberate himself. He feels boxed in inside the White House and felt handcuffed to GOP leaders. No more. He had it with McConnell — thinks he's past his prime, no longer capable of leading. Considers him low-energy. He has much more natural rapport with Schumer, a friend from the New York days.

 Oh Hell, if he's assigned the 'Low Energy' label to McConnell that usually means vanquished, next he'll accuse Elaine Lan Chao of embezzling funds from the Department of Transportation.

   Until he switches that (R) behind his name to a (D) he'll quickly discover how fleeting all this current DEM Love is. 
   I love surprises, this recent move by him was/is not one, but I'm stocking up on popcorn, anyway.

Idiotic article.

The President simply triggered the fine-tuned political weapon known as triangulation.   Cripes folks, this isn't rocket science.

I like it. Another compliment. And not a hint of jealousy while yours sits idle. You can be like me, ya know. I bet they could fix things. If you go get your head examined.
