"To understand the madness gripping American leftists, try to see the world through their eyes. Presto, you’re now part of the raging resistance."
This should not make sense to the average American. Wanting Trump to not be winning is like wishing the plane you are on whould crash. At least, that is a good analogy I read.

Trump hijacked a plane called the Republican party during the 2015/16 period and after some initial resistance they let him waltz all the way to the cockpit.
As of Jan 2017, we've all been passengers in an airplane flown by an amateur with no frickn idea of what he is doing. His (few) experienced cabinet members are in the control tower trying guide him into an emergency landing....while we the passengers (the American people) hope he can get out of his narcissistic bubble long enough to guide us to a safe landing.

Now for the reality. Trump is not just winning, he is stomping the living daylights out of all opposition:
1) Illegal immigration down 64%
2) Isis chased out of Mosul and virtually destroyed
3) Stock Market soaring, inflation down, unemployment down (3.8%), manufacturing soaring (best since 83)
4) The "2 for 1" rule which had eliminated regulation via executive order. Additionally, Congressional review act wipes out 15 Obama regulations.
5) Hiring freeze on government employees
6) Gorsuch and dozens of other justices appointed. Already confirmed more appeals judges than any president since 1891. ANOTHER SUPREME COURT JUDGE ON THE WAY.
7) Keystone Pipeline approved
8) Found ways to reduce number of refuges (Refugee Admissions Plummet to 1,242 in First Month of FY 2018 - Breitbart), AND THE SUPREME COURT HAS UPHELD HIS TRAVEL BAN!
9) Media finally being held accountable for lies
10) TPP dead
11) Kim Jong Un backs down from Guam, North Korea comes to the table, 3 hostages released, and the president of South Korea recommends Trump for a Nobel prize. Summit held.
12) Spending by NATO allies up 10 billion
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-03-15/nato-members-post-new-defense-spending-rise-amid-trump-pressure
13) Obamacare altered and gutted by executive orders that allow for greater cross-state competition, and that gut illegal subsidies not approved by congress. Individual mandate killed.
14) Return to Constitutionality with reversal of illegal executive orders on Dreamers and Obamacare.
15) 250 billon trade deal with China http://www.reuters.com/article/us-trump-asia-china-deals/trumps-250-billion-china-miracle-adds-gloss-to-off-kilter-trade-idUSKBN1D90L2
16) Tax cuts passed and came to be wildly popular! 587 companies announce pay raises, bonuses, and expanisons.
17) Thwarted Russia at every turn: Washington has expanded NATO once again, strengthened sanctions on Moscow, supplied the Ukrainian military with lethal weapons, boosted aid to the Baltic countries and launched missiles against Syria's Assad regime.
18) Companies such as Disney, JP Morgan Chase and Verizon sharing wealth with employees and explicitly citing tax cuts.
19) Trump's tariff a boon to American solar companies.
20) Streamlined infrastructure permitting.
21) North Korea announces that it will come to the table
22) China backs down from trade war
23) Iran treaty ended.
24) Right to try signed into law
25) "Blue wave" looking more and more like a puddle.
26) announced plans to streamline cabinet.
27) Conspiracy of Strzok and page exposed--the American people now firmly against more Russia investigation.
28) The following companies have announced re-investment in America: SoftBank $50B Exxon $20B Hyundai $3.1B Apple $1B Chrysler $1B GM $1B Bayer AG $1B Toyota $600M LG $250M

Can you imagine their teety baby hissy fit when Republicans win in 2018 and again in 2020

The question is whether the country is winning, not if the self-aggrandizing compulsively lying Trump and his acolytes claimhe is winning.
Trump has tapped into something beyond politics and partisanship, he has taken control of issues that mainstream americans care and worry about. The left has no answer to that.
Look at him like a boss. He may be a blowhard and you may not like him, but if he keeps things going and you get a paycheck, a raise and have job security and some more people get hired, new equipment gets bought, you put up with him.
Compare him to a Clinton who would be banging the secretary in the office and raiding the pension fund for his own expenses or an Obama who would institute weird or oppressive new personnel policies and hire illegals who can't speak English and cut everybody's pay.

The reality is much of your list of alleged 'wins' is either opinion or meaningless.
Whether 2,6,10,13,17,23,25 are winning or not is O-P-I-N-I-O-N, nothing else.
21,22,26,27 are meaningless or at best dubious.
28 is meaningless without documenting Trump is responsible for each announcement. There's already been a number of people attempting to credit Trump for announcements made during the previous administration.
But he IS truly a master of the Dog & Pony Shows that his marks take to actually represent accomplishment where none exists.
#10 - TPP dead. Nope Not even. Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Japan, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam signed this free trade agreement a couple months ago -- CPTPP, the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership. Life moved on without the U.S.
#11 and #21 - Celebrating Trump's brief meeting North Korean Leader Kim and his . Really? Trump cancelled the joint military preparedness training as Leader Kim wanted. In return, Kim accelerated work on North Korea's nuclear and missile program. Celebrating Trump's Nobel Prize might be a bit premature.
#13 - ACA gutted. Trump's promised plan that was more affordable and covered more Americans never materialized. Millions lose health insurance. Premiums for everyone else going up at ever increasing rates.
#22 - China backed down on the trade war? This from Alex Jones or Hannity?
...
Time to face reality. Lying is not the same as winning.
Who knew, eh?
