TRUMP is a snake oil salesman.. I too would have never believed this had I been told that Conservatives would cave.
Trump is a little different because his “snake oil” bottles are empty. He has set them before We The People and asked “Please fill them for me.” In a few cases this has happened, hence things like the Trump-Sessions manifesto on the 2nd Amendment.
At this juncture the onus is on us (pun intended).
