Wow. This man needs a lesson on how to deescalate a situation properly. Will this heavy handed approach really make people less angry? I doubt it..

I think it's interesting how he's threatening China about HK on one hand, but on the other hand being a lot more literal and aggressive towards his own people.

IMHO, he's a closeted dictator and would really like to be in Xi's or Putin's shoes.

On the other hand, if he was indeed in their shoes he would have never made it and be deposed near instantly. The only place a Trump can thrive is in a democracy.
