It seems that Trump is the only person congratulating the Sanders campaign on his win. That should tell the Democrats how fractured their party is.

This is a list of demagogue behaviour patterns. A demagogue needn't meet them all to be considered a demagogue. Take a look, consider without prejudice which items match Trump's modus operandi, and then consider the 5 to 10 presidents that preceded him. There you have the difference between this president, a demagogue, and former presidents, not demagogues.
Trump ticks off every item on the list, with the sole exception that his "charisma" is very much in the eye of the beholder.
That goes for the last 3 Presidents as well, I am not a fan of TRUMP but clearly your personal opinion is you just don't like one or many of the traits you listed.

Among national leaders, that behaviour is the preserve of demagogues, and for the first time, the US has a demagogue for president. He trades in inanities.
You give TRUMP way too much credit, he is definetly NOT a demagogue!

There should be large banners at the airport with the slogan "Free Hong Kong!
Then President Xi should be taken to his favorite Chinese restaurant in the middle of Shibuya while thousands of Japanese protest for Xi to respect the will of the people regarding Hong Kong AND Taiwan!

This never ends! Nissan wasn't a company, it was a school and the teachers never got along with each other so they decided to tattle on each other. So pathetic.

China deals with the world just like they dealt with Hong Kong. Agree to a deal, then later do it the Chinese way. There are so many examples of this. China cannot be trusted.

He was not an "avid Trump supporter" He was anti politician as he hated both the left and the right. That was his reasoning behind the attack. He wanted to take matters into his own hands.
