The one thing that Donald Trump is good at:

D-I-V-I-S-I-O-N

Whether or not it is his planned strategy or whether it just comes natural to him, the effect is the same.

Most presidents look to unite our country, at least with their words. But not Donald Trump. He looks to divide. He believes that is the best way for him to "win".

Everything that he mentions has to be divisive. He loves to divide on cultural issues, such as the flag and football players kneeling, and those brown people that are coming across our borders and "infesting" our country.

Yeah, he knows how to divide.

He creates chaos so he can slip through the cracks and freely commit atrocities and self-serving crimes

feels the same way, we could get him on crimes of humanity. Also the opioid crisis in the US, he is not lifting a finger on that either which keeps on killing people. They are systemically killing off people.

When will The Donald launch an attack on so-called nuclear facilities in Iran is the next guessing game.

Before the mid-terms, or just before 2020 to bat down Mueller's findings, and play the "We're at war patriotism card" so don't criticize me with fake news BS.

Much cheaper to have Trump destroy America and without a shot fired in anger.

Putin is laughing his ass off in the Kremlin everyday no doubt.
