I don't support Trump, I don't like Trump; however, although Trump says a lot of shit, he's no where near the level of Putin or Xi in terms of what he actually does. Even under Trump, America would still definitely definitely be an ally.

Trump has thankfully not been able to do much, however the Bush family has. They were worse than Xi or even Putin (if you take a non-European point of view).

(Arguably, Trump, Xi and even Putin still have "potential" left.)

Not true, ridiculous statement.

I guess you don't have many friends from iraq

Trump is nowhere near the level of Putin or Xi in following evil goals or keeping his office organized and loyal.

But in the role of US president he would be able to do equal harm, just by acting like a 5 year old.

That's not true. America is still a democracy. The US as a whole is an ally to the West and Europe.

Trump does not understand or accept democracy. Yes, on that Jan 6th democracy won, but there is no guarantee it will end the same way next time. Roughly 50% of the voters don't seem to have a problem with abandoning democratic traditions.
