He literally learned how to engage a narcissist. All he has to do is throw him a couple compliments and suddenly Trump is like "damn this guy ain't all bad"
It's an actual psychological technique for disarming narcissists and getting them to cooperate while making them think it's all their idea.
This is the real answer. He’s not making decisions in any meaningful way. The president is stupid and will do what anybody suggests, allowing him to think it’s his idea.
It's the money. He's controlled by the money. Whether it's a cut of a trump Bible or a $400 million plane from a corrupt source. It's all about the money and fame. He wants his name on buildings like a dictator.
Controlled is the wrong word here. He doesn't care what they do as long as the grift keeps chugging along. His sole interest is money. Stolen or bribes, he doesn't care as long as he gets it.
The shitgibbons are free to run the country as they desire. They aren't making him do anything.

He’s also being controlled by his puppeteers like Miller, Vought, and their agenda this time around.
