doesn't give damn about having good people in government.

For Trump it is all about feeling powerful and getting rich. Nothing else matters. All his talk about America getting cheated by other nations and looking out for American security is BS. Greenland is a good example. He claims that the US needs Greenland for US security and that the rest of the world also needs to have the US in control of Greenland for their safety. But it is actually all about Trump and his cronies having control of Greenland's minerals and getting rich from them.
