We don't know how magic works, so we don't know what magical thinkers will accept as true magic and what they won't.  I think it is entirely possible that, if Trump says he has solved a problem, his followers will believe it, even if he appears to have done nothing.  They absolutely will ignore the man behind the curtain.

Indeed. Besides, it isn't like he has to worry all that much unless we are thinking of him like a traditional politician who is already strategizing how to get his next 4 years.

My stepdad was a big fan of Henry Clay.  I wonder how he'd feel about Trump.
