The authors analyze Trump's personality in several categories—uninhibited and capricious, dynamic and capable, profit-orientated and self-centered,competitive and persistent, positive and extraverted. The traits of breaking traditions, skill at strategic deception and negotiation, action-motivated implementation, intuitive decision-making, pursuit of respect and interest exchange, and vengefulness will shape his policy and behavioral orientations. Initial study shows Trump to be a political leader with positive personality traits and double-sided dimensions. The analysis offers insight toward understanding the new US executive and his policy direction.展开更多

Unlike previous American presidents in the modern era, however, Donald Trump had no previous political experience and emerged from media culture and the business world, rather than the world of party politics. In this paper, I will focus on the assault on globalization in the Trump campaign, look at his administration and actions as president, and raise questions concerning whether or not he has betrayed his anti-globalist followers and is pursing business-as-usual for global, corporate capitalism---or something else. This investigation also leads us into engaging the Trump campaign/administration connections with Russia and the role of Russia and global computer networks in Election 2016, making Election 2016 the first US election deeply shaped by global political forces and the Interuet, new media, and social networking.展开更多

Behind this Middle East policy is Trump's acceleration of global contraction, and a return to the US pro-Israel diplomatic tradition, both influenced by Trumpian style and the Jewish people around him. Any reliance on an Israel-Saudi Arabia alliance is inherently fragile, the potential for Iran regime change unclear,and Trump's planned deal would destabilize the region and expand a US-European rift. Changing this direction would require the US to think more deeply about Middle East long-term prospects to find a more balanced policy.展开更多
