We have had such lists as proposed by the OP several times over the past weeks or months, and I do not wonder that people herein are tired of addressing each point.
Here is what I think: I had opined, even prior to the election, that Donald Trump would, if elected, resign after a period of perhaps two years, claiming that he had accomplished all that he set out to do (for I thought, and still do, that he does not enjoy being President, although he has certainly improved his golf game).
I am still of that opinion. The other day Mr. Trump made the curious statement (as I noted in another thread) that, to paraphrase, "I do not have a schedule, but if I did have a schedule, we are ahead of schedule".
Mr. Trump is already beating the drum that he has accomplished most of his goals. The OP, and a few others, are joining in as chorus.
Mr. Trump and said posters are 'laying the groundwork' to explain Mr. Trump's resignation. I imagine that Mr. Trump has been reliably informed that the Mueller investigation may not bode well for him.
Accordingly, I make another prediction: that such threads increase in number in the coming weeks. That way, should Mr. Trump resign, they may proclaim "Of course! He has done what he set out to do!"
The possibility that he resigns, if he does, in order to escape the public humiliation of impeachment, will be ignored by his worshipers.
You bring up a great point about Trump & Cult laying the groundwork for his resignation.
I wonder, when he resigns, will Cult 45 feel as though he’s improved their lives, as he promised? It’s one thing to post false lists about what Trump has accomplished, and it’s another thing to have a better quality of life.

Will Cult 45 be satisfied if Trump resigns?
Yes, for it shall be framed as a 'victory'. I think Mr. Trump would rather be 'on the outside' of government. Indeed, should he resign, he would probably be a leading critic of the Republicans and Mr. Pence (as president), in order to gain approval with the public.

But, why would they consider it a victory if their quality of life hasn’t improved (or it’s gotten worse in terms of jobs, healthcare, etc)?
It seems to be a game: list mainly phony accomplishments, and ask others to refute.
It's called a Gish gallop, it's a well known bullsh!tting strategy pioneered by a creationist apologist that consists of just throwing out as many claims as possible in as little time as possiblen with no regard for thier factual accuracy. Because it is harder to refute a lie that it is to make them up, it becomes an impracticality to refute them all.
If you see a big list like this, glance over it and see if anything is blatantly factually incorrect. If you find something, now you know the person is BSing you.
