Let’s not overlook the fact that trump is taking credit in summary reports for arrests the DC police force would be making on their own if the National Guard and DHS weren’t there.

"Perhaps the most important thing to understand about Trump’s mobster state capitalism is that it isn’t about economic efficiency or stimulating growth, let alone a vision of how the economy works and what it should create. It’s about *power*, pure and simple."

Instead of adapting policies to increase his job approval, trump’s strategy is to circumvent public disapproval by promoting efforts 1) to reduce voter rolls in his favor, 2) to tighten voter id requirements in his favor, 3) to increase favorable gerrymandering and 4) to eliminate mail-in ballots.
