What kind of person Donald Trump is? You may be shocked | Maqvi News

Former US president Donald Trump remains in the headlines for one reason or the other apart from his legal troubles in which he is facing 91 criminal charges and four indictments.

People who worked closely with Donald Trump revealed what kind of person the 2024 Republican presidential hopeful is.

Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton told CNN that “he views himself as a big guy and likes dealing with other big guys… like [Turkish President] Erdogan in Turkey” because they do not ask “anyone’s permission if they get to put people in jail”.

The 77-year-old former president has a history of praising authoritarian leaders and dictators all around the world, as a CNN report citing sources stated that the businessman termed Hungarian leader Viktor Orbán “fantastic”. 

Chinese leader Xi Jinping is “brilliant”, and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un is “an OK guy”.

The indictment-stricken Trump had also been admiring Russian President Vladimir Putin calling him smarter than President Joe Biden and “[…] the easiest of them all,” compared with Nato leaders.

A former chief of staff under Trump, General Retired John Kelly, told CNN: “My theory on why he likes the dictators so much is that’s who he is.”

“But in his case, he was shocked that he didn’t have dictatorial-type powers… and he looked at Putin and Xi and that nutcase in North Korea as people who were like him in terms of being a tough guy.”

Criticising Biden, Trump noted: “We have a man that has no clue what’s happening. It’s the most dangerous time in the history of our country.”

Allies of the former president believe Trump’s election to the White House would mark a shift change in US policies toward Nato and other international commitments including Ukraine.
