I've tried to see what Infopervs see in him. I've tried. He's done one or two things that I see as good and/or useful. Trying to get the US coal industry revitalised is good, but along with his energy plans comes the potentially catastrophic decision for a massive fracking industry, which will leave the US geologically unstable and the water supply dangerously polluted. Much more should be done on nuclear fusion instead. But generally he is just imposing more US hegemony through the US military: more warships; more fighters jets and bombers; more military personnel; and of course, more shiny new nukes to kill more people more efficiently.
GENIUS!!
As if the USA needs more and more killing machines and killers. And all of that under the control of a president who declares that nobody loves Israel more than him, and calls the Prime Minister of Israel "a great guy" after Israel killed 520 children in Gaza, and he does nothing to stop Israel's ethnic cleansing of Gaza. And this is how deluded Trump is: he sends his son-in-law Jared Kushner to the Middle East to forge a peace plan when Kushner was on the board of The Friends of the IDF until it was reported in the media, and he still continues to donate to The Friends of the IDF!
GENIUS!!
Over the weekend neo-Nazis and neo-Confederates marched on the streets of an American city, resulting in one of the pro-Trump neo-Nazis driving his car at speed into a crowd of anti-Nazis and killing a woman.
But take these comments from that presser yesterday as evidence.
Apparently, Bomber Trump thinks that Nazis don't support him, even though they just marched through Charlottesville, VA, shouting "Heil Trump" and calling him God Emperor of the United States!
Q: Why do Nazis support you?
“They don't.”

You may recall the many cringeworthy moments when a much younger Donald, with many more hormones rushing through his veins, hinted at his lust for his daughter Ivanka: suggesting live on TV that he would date her; calling her a voluptuous piece of ass, etc, etc, etc. Ivanka, and for that matter Donald, have their own clothing and accessories businesses. The problem is that many of their products are made not in America but in cheap foreign sweatshops, mainly Chinese, but the Trumps are not that bothered about the location, just as long as the labour is cheap. Donald even uses cheap foreign labour at Mar-a-Lago. And there is no sign whatsoever that the manufacturing of any these Trump products is being transferred to America. Donald has also given Ivanka an office in The White House, apparently to make America great again. So bare all this in mind when you read this:
REPORTER: Why are the CEOs leaving your manufacturing council?
TRUMP: Because they are not taking their job seriously as it pertains to this country. We want jobs, manufacturing in this country. If you look at some of those people that you are talking about, they are outside of the country. They are having a lot of their product made outside.
...I want manufacturing to be back into the United States so that American workers can benefit.

Trump referred to a winery in Virginia. There is a winery in Virginia called Trump Winery. But Donald does not own Trump Winery. His son Eric does. Donald bought the winery (under controversial circumstances) and either gave or sold it to Eric (unless there is an unknown legal loophole or agreement that Donald still owns the winery). And it is not one of the largest wineries in America. It's not even the largest winery in Virginia. And, just like Mar-a-Lago, it uses cheap foreign labour too!
TRUMP: I mean, I know a lot about Charlottesville. Charlottesville is a great place that's been very badly hurt over the last couple of days. I own – I own actually one of the largest wineries in the United States. It’s in charlottesville.

Trump has tried to big up the US economy. But it's so far based on his treason in Riyadh and more waitresses.
I know it's only 7 months into Trump's presidency, but all I see are swamp-dwellers and military top brass, bombs, dead children, cholera, hypocrisy, low wage jobs, threats of war on Venezuela, treason and lies.
