Trump illustrates your point about utilizing domestic hookers. He shoulda stuck with Montreal.

Reality says
I'm not sure if the 'left' has any thinking at all.
In trading, we all understand the expression ... "priced into the market". That was the pivotal year of 2017, where for the most part, the left and its media wonks, slammed Trump of being a perma-trash talking douchebag.
So by mid-2018, much of society got used to the idea that yeah ... the commander in chief talks trash (think Imus but for politics, not sports) and at the same time, minimizes foreign wars, advocates border security, and tries to limit the phenomena of offshoring which has plagued the nation since the 1990s/2000s.
So in reality, the public has realized that this person is a sort of a political moderate, who despite having a loudmouth, isn't as bad as the left likes to portray him. This is the issue because by 2019, it's become somewhat clear that Trump's the classic anti-hero, who despite having a highly flawed personality, does the right thing, more often than not. This is akin to Kurt Russell in 'Escape from NY/LA', Vin Diesel in 'Pitch Black/Chronicles of Riddick', Jason Statham in 'Death Race', along with a slew of other "bad boy" movie anti-heroes whom everyone roots for.
