Hello from Los Angeles, California. I'm Leon Carouse, and welcome to Trumpcast. Let me ask you what makes a good politician?

I would suggest that the key to being a successful politician is not to win every fight, but to find a way to avoid outright defeat.

In other words, political talent is the ability to stay away from situations in which there is no other solution but to take a beating, losing everything and gaining nothing.

If this is true, when future historians try to explain the final days of 2018 and these first few weeks of 2019, the first conclusion they will reach is that Donald Trump, this so-called legendary dealmaker, actually did not know how to play the game at all, or at least he didn't when the complexity of the game proved overwhelming.

The government shutdown has, in my opinion, revealed the president's dramatic limitations as a politician.

By extending the shutdown for almost a month, Trump has shown an absolute lack of diplomatic imagination and will frankly has confirmed the fears of those who ridicule him as a sort of child who governs by temper tantrum, a man incapable of finding common ground even if evidence and reality

both suggest there is no other way out of crisis.

In one has to be the most absurd outburst in recent American history, Donald Trump, this master dealmaker of television myth, has locked himself inside a trap of his own making without the slightest idea of how to get out of it.

And it has cost him dearly, the president's approval rating has fallen below 40%, 55% of Americans blame him for the shutdown, Donald Trump has lost this fight.

A fight he chose to start without again any idea of how to finish it, much less winning it.

But if Trump's overall political fortunes are in decline, the fate of the nativist rhetoric he helped ignite from the very beginning of his campaign for the Republican nomination might sadly be facing better odds.

Just as polling revealed the depths of Trump's own popularity during the shutdown, other figures have begun to suggest the number of Americans who support building Trump's border wall.

The president's pointless campaign promise has actually increased.

In a recent ABC Washington Post poll, the number of those who support the idea of this border wall is now 42%, an eight point jump from just a year ago, eight points.

The people who strongly oppose the wall has fallen 14 points to 38% from 52%, 75% of Republicans currently say that the biggest problem that country faces is illegal immigration.
