7. My bet is on it falling apart by Friday.

I'm not sure the mechanism, but I expect it to fall apart. Either as part of a somewhat calculated plan, as you outline, or as a result of the felon having a lucid moment in which he sees "the deal" for what it is (i.e., a surrender).

The thing is, prior to this "deal," the trump we know and rightfully condemn is a narcissistic psychopath who is constitutionally incapable of sucking up a loss -- ANY kind of loss.

We don't have the full details on the MoU, but clearly, the "deal" is humiliating. It is a surrender with reparations. It paints a giant L for Loser on the felon's forehead.

So either he made it intending for it to blow up, so he doesn't have to suck up the loss, or his deterioration has reached a point that he is incapable of remembering what he has experienced and confabulates based on his fantasies to fill in the gaps. In that state, it would be easy for people around him to manipulate him into doing something that his narcissism and psychopathy would have formerly precluded.

I've been leaning toward his deterioration having reached a point that he has no memory of what is actually happening around him.

Is it good that this deal has been made? I don't know about the specifics, but clearly, the ONLY way of his criminal war is a "deal" that would be deeply humiliating to the felon, and unbelievably costly for the American tax payer.

I could be flat wrong, but I suspect a deeply disabled narcissistic psychopath has been maneuvered into something that EVERYONE around knew had to happen; something that he would have never agreed to if he had not lost the ability to remember what he is experiencing hour-by-hour.
