Trump hasn’t solved anything at all. He’s messed up the entire world, lies constantly as easily as breathing, and there are still plenty of fools who believe him. The only thing he really cares about is manipulating the markets for his own benefit and engaging in insider trading. Trump is a typical white-collar gangster who abuses power and information for his own disgusting enrichment and that of his cronies. Anyone who still believes him is a complete idiot with no brain left. Even a five-year-old child can see every day what a stupid, rude, hysterical baby Trump is — someone who should be locked away in a mental institution not to be a preident!
