I think he is best suited to be a TV show host. He says what he thinks the audience wants to hear. But the administration fired every competent person first day in. Now he's surrounded by yes-man idiots that say whatever they think will keep him from firing their ass. So when he floats by a stupid idea, they go along with it and tell him he's a genius. Then the idea doesn't work because it's not rooted in reality. Trump freaks out that he will lose the momentum he has with his fanbase and lashes out with what he thinks will keep the audience's attention.

In the end, the US has lost materially. Trump is in power because the Bourgeoise aren't ready to admit that their empire has lost. The longer they stay in denial, the worse Trump's flip-flopping looks.
