It's not vacation time. It's 'vacation' time. Just like the people who wrote the article probably consider themselves 'journalists.'

On re-election, it's going to be interesting. Because the intangibles are awful for Trump. Shit like 'he played a lot of golf!' and 'His twitter is bad' and 'He exaggerates and lies and insults people!'
But on the tangible front, if the stock market is still doing well, and the economy is ticking along, and ISIS is wrecked, and people are enjoying their bit of extra cash from the refunds, and ect... If those things continue as is, I don't know if people are going to want to change course on those policies just because Trump is a dickhole.
Essentially, 2016 for many, was a gamble that Trump was a wildcard that might somehow get results. 'Fuck it, let's see what happens.' If the results aren't bad, I think they say 'fuck it, let it ride.'
