In 2016, GOP voters are just doubling down on everything. I really can't blame Trump for this... it's really the people that voted for him. Unless Hillary effs up the next 4 years, I don't see how 2020 will be anything good for the GOP.
I absolutely believe this is part of it, but I think the mistrust in institutions and the government runs dangerously deeper.
I think in no small part to lack of prosecutions after the financial meltdown. And no, I'm not blaming that "on Obama" but more a systemic problem due to the corrupting influence of big money. I"m not naive. It's not a new influence; it's just tipped over into a more obvious thing and people across class and ideology have noticed.
Trump one by combining the typical Republican playbook with the niceties stripped out, plus captured everyone of right/center to right wing disgusted with "the government"

Wikileaks credibility is in the toilet at this point so no one should expect them to play a role in the election at this point

Correct. She can't make an executive order to change the Constitution.

To abolish an amendment?
Congress may overturn an Executive order by a two-thirds vote. The United States Supreme Court can declare that an Executive order is unconstitutional and unenforceable. Additionally, a subsequent president can reverse an Executive order.
So knowing that Congress would likely never, ever allow a repeal of the 2nd amendment to pass, why is that a big deal?

Obama has signed fewer executive orders than Bush, Reagan or Clinton. He's actually averaged fewer executive orders per year then most presidents in the previous Century up until now. You had absolutely no idea what you're talking about, but that makes sense because you get your information from Drudge and Breitbart. Here's a link in case you're interested.

Re: Can Trump wiggle out of this one?
Fantasy politics:
GOP says vote Trump and we promise to impeach and remove him during his inaugural address. R members of Congress sign one of their famous pledges. Pence becomes president before Trump finishes his speech. Contract with America. Trump gets to say he was the 45th president for a few minutes. President Pence.

It has been counter-intuitive in a way. Once upon a time I thought access to facts would bring clarity.
But the web is also a levelling field when it comes to voicing ones' opinions and those who wish to sidestep fact checks have learned that the information firehose is strictly a matter of volume, not veracity.
Overwhelm via vehemence and volume is the tactic of those who won't slow down to incorporate factual reality and Trump is their icon because his whole personality structure is an endless expression of the notion that if I say its true then it is. So Trump is really the poster child for the fringe lunatics because he is one.
As you're saying pretty smartly, you can't blame Trump for doubling down on the memes he chose to hammer. Not that I think you're excusing him, but acknowledging the tactic and its historical roots.
And the wrinkle I'm adding is that just as much as his strongest supporters may agree with him on something like immigation, I'm also saying there is a deep emotional connection Trump has made with those who have gone through life feeling slighted and looked down upon intellectually.
It goes beyond people enjoying a boorish pig like him thumbing his nose at the "establishment" (whatever that fictional realm is in their vague minds) and extends into an affiliation of the heart. They can be dirt poor in a trailer park and still they see themselves in this crude silver spoon billionaire because he is carrying around the same wounded heart as them. Trump is clearly a hurt little boy with Daddy issues and many of his supporters don't even have a clue this is why they feel so close to him.
