As a political matter, Trump would be better off if following the Bill Clinton model: Focus on presidential duties & outsource pushback on Mueller, etc, to a team of political operatives. (Dems picked up seats in '98 midterm.)
Yes. Sometimes you make tactical adjustments. Even Trump has done that in his life. Started as a real estate developer, realized he could make money selling the "Trump" brand and then went into reality TV.

"I should totally destroy my own effectiveness so people who never supported me will think I'm smart" is not much of a plan
-
No, he should do it to earn more support from more voters, which would be possible.
-
45% of this country wouldn't support him no matter what he did. He needs the support of the voters he has already
-
This is a fair rejoinder but I think he sells himself short by always operative under this assumption. But many disagree w/ me. You could be right.

I think the special counsel is designed to cut him off at the knees any time he gets any momentum going. It's his #1 problem and was designed to be from the start

He's still a real estate developer. He did Trump DC in 2016
-
I know but he's not ONLY a real estate developer. My point is that Trump has shown flexibility in how he earned a living, adding other jobs, revenue streams. He could do same w/ communications to account for his current position of employment.
-
He didn't get tariff concessions from China or summit with North Korea by allowing others to speak for him
-
That was in the service of his job as president. In those cases, he should speak for himself. I'm arguing this case because it's outside his job as president.
-
I don't agree that it is, at all. He's being targeted by political enemies because he's the President
