Yeah because he's head of a nation. If he was a governor, he'd be all about states rights. If he was a mayor, he'd say the town should be the center of the political sphere. If he ruled the world, he'd call himself a globalist.
He always does what makes himself look the best and most powerful. That's all he knows how to do.

It's not so much about what Trump is. It's about the huge number of people who accept what he is, accept his view of life, even accept his denigration of everyone who isn't rich and powerful, share his view that everyone who isn't rich and powerful is nothing, even though, with few exceptions, his supporters are not rich or powerful, and accept his view that everyone who isn't rich and powerful is contemptible. It's like Trump has taken them hostage, that they are being "raised by narcissists", and their reaction to Trump is not to fight against him but, instead, a kind Stockholm Syndrome, like they're so beaten down, so afraid of Trump and the world he's creating that they have to cower to him and to that world.
But I was raised by a narcissist and I learned to resist, learned there's no truth in them and no value in what they say.
