If he doesn't improve this fast enough he'll implode and they will probably come after him with all their guns. He knows this, probably better than anyone else. He will bully the establishment GOP who are now rapidly waking up to this reality as well into spending so much Nationalist Keynesian money like there's no tomorrow, drying out the labor pool by deporting illegal immigrants and restricting work visa and enacting tariffs to make American workers competitive. Trump gains nothing from unhappy workers. He couldn't care less about unhappy welfare people because these vote Democrat. He may make their life miserable, ok. But there is no turning back working conditions to the miserable state of the industrial revolution or whatever. It's the opposite he'll make sure American workers are so scarce they can demand better raises than in decades. This in turn will enhance their social standing and this in turn will make them happy Trump voters. This is not your father's GOP anymore. Trump has been teaching them a big lesson. Are they stoopid and slow to learn? Sure but they are not complete idiots.
This is certainly his plan, and it's a good one. Whether he achieves it depends on the acumen of his economic team.
