Haberman: This version of Trump, this presidency is pretty close to unrecognizable from term one. He is operating on pure gut and with a very small group of advisors who want to see him succeed and who prize secrecy above all else.

Haberman: When Trump looks at a map of the world, he sees a sphere of influence. He sees the hemisphere, the U.S., he sees Canada, he sees Central America, he sees Greenland. And he looks at it, frankly, from the perspective of a conqueror. He sees land that he thinks should belong to his country.

Haberman: Many of these things with Trump start out as trolls and then they take on a life of their own. His team was, in fact, looking at whether Canadians would be interested in becoming absorbed by the U.S. His team made a fair amount of overt and less overt efforts into taking over Greenland.

Haberman: If you want to look at a physical, tangible distinction between term two and term one, look around the Oval Office, look at all of the gold, look at how he has covered every single square inch with something, how focused he is on gilding it and how focused he is on leaving his own mark.
