Flailing politicians sometimes try to rationalize their way around the polls, believing they have some finer gut understanding. Trump is way beyond that. The meaning of being president for Trump is simply that he can get his own way. But it isn’t just that: brought a negative poll, Trump simply orders aides to find better ones. His only answer to this is more Trump, bigger Trump, greater Trump, which, under the circumstances, quite seems like more self-destructive Trump.
