. . . comes next.  The normal concepts of loyalty, principle, ideology, empathy (especially empaty, not sympathy, empathy) DO NOT APPLY to Trump.

Now he's completely undermining conservatives.  Just to get jollies and approval.  No loyalty, no principle, no ideological firmness on any level.  

His shift, which is likely to go on awhile and progress (especially after the conservatives being to excoriate him in the brutal and loud fashion they are capable of), serves only one purpose.  

We need to be really vigilant and continue to push Congress toward removing him.  He's dangerous.  We're all at risk.  Even the conservatives and GOP are about to feel that where it counts for them - when he starts doing things sympathetic toward minorites, such as pushing Congressional Republicans to provide DACA-like relief.
