He's doing about as well as Bush was doing this time into his second term. With his legislative agenda in tatters, he pursued being a culture warrior by pursuing a very conservative agenda through executive domestic and foreign policy action. However, the economy was in a bubble but people mostly much ignored that. The main reason being that inflation and interest rates were low and anyone could buy anything. The main difference is that instead of a small war, there is the constant fear of a bigger war. Wait. There is one other main difference- Democrats are being much more aggressive in their opposition than they were with Bush.
My guess is that Trump's presidency will be a failure unless Democrats totally fail as an opposition party the way they did throughout most of Bush's presidency.
