I think this Syria/USA/Turkey situation has summed up the whole Trump experience.

His twitter behaviour, his letter to Erdogan, his bitchfight with Pelosi were all stuff that no world leader has ever publicly indulged in.
His original decision to move troops out was open for ridicule.
His detractors had everything right i front of them and popped off continually with "thats not how a President acts" etc etc etc. and they were right.


but.

he 'seems' to have got the resolution he aimed for. so his supporters are jumping for joy saying "see, no slaughter, no US troops dead, no sanctions needed". again, they are right and will always point to that and say 'results over process'.

which ever side of the fence youre on re:Trump theres 24/7 ammunition to strengthen your point.
but he said as much, years ago when he decided to run. he said hes not a politician and had no desire to be one. he said to judge him on results, and hes getting 'results' for those who matter.
hes been this buffoon his whole life, and its worked, so hes parlaying that into a bigger job. its just that we arent used to see this method from 'that' office.
