If those basic issues do not concern you, I wonder why?

Those basic issues do not concern me because I have built a company that is Idiotic Politician (Justin Trudeau) and Recession Proof.

Donald Trump prefers loyalty over integrity. That's in his book.
In his public life since he become the POTUS it seems that loyalty only happens when convenient.

Selective outrage much ?
How easily we forget the rise of ISIS and a nuclear Iran.
Obama giving Iran the largest sponsor of terrorism in the world 1.7 billion in Cash , some of which no doubt ended up in Obamas pocket.

Are you being honest when you edited half the quote out? Or are you trying to manipulate? It was not accidental, was it?
So, let's repeat the first part you seemed not to want to address.
"I, like most people in the world, are concerned about the unstable, chaotic, narcissistic individual who has his fingers on the nuclear button. "

Most people in the world ?
Did you do a poll , if so post it otherwise I would guess you imagination is getting the best of you.
Thanks to Billy Clinton we now have a little fat guy in NK threatening everyone with his nuclear wepeons
Thanks to Obama we have Iran on the verge of becoming a nuclear state and a huge threat in the Middle East.
Selective outrage much ?

I didn't include the above because I think it's nonsensical, paranoid and ridiculous.
Also the deal he put together today totals 380 Billion Dollars and represents Hundreds of Thousands of JOBS.
Man are the Americans ever lucky to have Trump!

Now, this flaming editorial from Der Speigel, in english. Who/what is Der Speigel? Only the most read and respected news magazine in Germany itself, and in Europe generally. Trump has become a laughing stock of the world, a dangerous laughing stock, but a laughing stock nevertheless.

FWIW Europe reacted much the same way to Reagan, and Bush II. Not surprisingly they also had a deep affection for Clinton and especially Obama. It really only shows that they are largely socialists who despite their professed tolerance are really little more than social elitists.

I would think what everyone thinks of our leader is important but should be the subject of its own thread.

but do you have a Tower, or Castle, or a golf course with your name on it?
mini-golf?
I think I will call you mini Trump or small orange
If you really don't like the leadership in Canada or Alberta, leave the empire you built, refuse to disclose your taxes and offer to drain the Canadian swamp and make Canada great again.
Or just keep what your doing as head suck to the top knob in the US.
Just quit crying because not everyone likes the taste of orange.

I didn't vote for the current leadership in either Alberta or Canada, sort of stuck with it for now.
By looking at the posts on the anti-Trump threads here, it seems to me that as many people like Trump as there are Trump haters.

So is being the President of the United States just a shallow popularity contest, or does competency and integrity come in to play at all? It's still early in his term, and all I see is a whole bunch of posturing and self aggrandizement going on. Will he actually be the type of President that accomplishes things that will be for the betterment of all US citizens? Will the world be a better and safer place in general? And will he govern in such a way as to bring dignity and honor to his office? Time will tell, but it's not looking really great. I'd be happy to be wrong about him, it would be great to have a real Statesman in that office again, but I'm not holding my breath. Really, the man can't even seem to grasp the concept of reality and truth too well. But I guess he is still better than the Clinton woman.....but Pee Wee Herman would have been a better choice than her, so not a really high bar there.
Edit: And enough with the labels already. 'Trump Hater', just because you don't worship at the altar of Donald. If a person can't apply critical thinking to world leaders, I guess being a sheep is ok? It used to be that questioning and holding elected officials to account was a good thing.

I don't see the "world" in that piece if writing, I only see a rant fron a left wing German journalist with access to a keyboard and internet. Same story from the media, over and over. Just another opinion, like so many every day...boring.

I believe that the rest of the world is thinking that Trump is Big League.
And that would make them correct, what a guy

At least both you and Donald think he's big league. I'm sure he would be ecstatic to know to know that at least one person gets a little dewy eyed when he see's his pudgy butt out on the golf course........
