You are spot on, but there are dipshits on this thread who want failure. They wallow in self-pity, and a successful negotiation for them is the opponent dead, with bayonets through their backs. Anything less is “selling out”.

They are pathetic. Trump is doing what we elected him to do. MAGA!

You're partly correct, in that the concern trolls are dipshits. But you are in error if you think they are real people posting real opinions.

FR - in fact all social media - has long been a hot bed of coordinated campaigns geared towards shaping opionion through classic FUD: fear, uncertainty & doubt.

Do you recognize any of the names? The simplest test of all is to look not just at posting content, but posting time/date patterns. "Normal" people have swings - they go through period of commenting, and then perhaps just lurking/reading.

As to the body of the article, Trump's #1 objective is to get this country back under control. That means draining the swamp and strengthening/enforcing border control & immigration law.

DACA is a poison pill - it's political poison to be percieved as shipping kids back through no fault of their own. But, if a concession here can be parlayed into achieving much larger policy objectives, then it's a necessary pawn sacrifice.

At no point whatsoever have I seen Trump exhibit the classic professional politician tactics of promising everything, then eseentially saying FU once fully esconced in DC. Trump is still out there, day after day, trying to get something done. That in itself should be viewed as remarkable.
