I think the argument is during his first term the Republicans thought Trump would actually be their leader and do stuff, but really he just bumbled around and ate McDonalds. Now the savvier far righters realize he's better as a figurehead and will now leverage his next term by having a bunch of ghouls run around behind the scenes while Trump is out golfing.

That's the logic anyway.

As if Trump didn’t already have a bunch of ghouls running around behind the scenes like John Bolton.

Didn't he fire Bolton for being a war hawk?
