Donald "push the button" Trump

They don't have to love me unless they fear me - that's a tempting option for narcisstic Donald Trump who faces shrinking "appreciation" among voters and loses popularity abroad.

In last Pew Research's poll (run in 37 countries) Trump is more popular then Obama only in two countries: Russia and Israel. Last Macron's statement that US climat scientists were welcome in 'France to make our planet great again' is significant gesture. It demonstrates shift in outer perception of American soft power and US global positions.

Digging through european media coverage shows that leaders of these nations are taking a dimmer view of Trump's leadership. For them his decisions are incoherent with policies of former US leaders. Trump's numerous declarations are lacking clarity and it's striking on an exceptional scale. Nobody, including Trump (?), can predict what will be his next move and where he will wander.

President looks shaky, behaves murky and seems obsessed. His main mark is easiness of loosing temper and eagerness to hit back anyone, at any cost. All this brings a sad conclusion that this presidency can be spiraling down, culminating in chaos.

While desperatly seeking approval (in his own eyes) he will make mistakes. That's why US needs system of check and balans to be stronger then ever. Need institutions that work as bumber keeping all safe while driver runs amock. Someone is needed to keep button away from Donald Trump.
