Donald Trump is a bad leader. He has a big ego, his behavior is unpredictable and aggressive, and he makes it all about him.

I’d like to point out reasons why Donald Trump is a bad leader in 2020 and why he’s ultimately failing the United States of America (and the world). This is not a politically oriented post in the sense that it has nothing to do with Trump’s political affiliation. Rather, it’s about Trump as an actual person and leader.

I’ll stick to the facts and things that actually happened — not speculation or my opinion. My goal in sharing this is so we can learn from some of Trump’s mindset and behavior, so we can be better leaders in our families, jobs, and communities.

From the bottom of my heart, the intention of this post is: here’s how Trump is acting and what he’s doing. How can we learn from this? How can we be better authentic leaders ourselves?

Reasons Why Donald Trump Is Falling Short as a Leader

Here are ten reasons why Donald Trump falls short as a leader:

Bullying Others

Donald Trump bullies others, which is childish. In his tweets, he will often insult and put down others. I saw one tweet where he called someone a nobody. In a speech, Trump made fun of someone’s physical disability by sarcastically mimicking the disabled person’s uncoordinated bodily movements.
