Did he get paid at least?
Neither laid nor paid. Otherwise why would he complain to press?

But that's not what he wanted or was supposed to accomplish. He was supposed to unite Americans under a more muscular hardline stance against China and lead them to a trade war victory that would capitulate the Chinese, reversing the trend of China growing faster than the US. Instead, he failed all of that, dividing the US in bitter hatred, led it to lose a trade war that it enthusiastically started, mismanaged the biological disaster of the century in unimaginable proportions, and went to plan B, which is to become king of the idiots. Is it impressive to be the king of the idiots? In some ways, but it is at best a consolation prize after he absolutely failed at being a successful American leader.
In short, MAGA failed.
Trump is a con man but his narcissism and hubris made himself a moron in front of the world.
He is entertaining though, 2016 - 2020 were the best years of western msm news, you could feel the butthurt coming out of the page

MAGA was just his sales pitch.
Like any salesman, Trump's actual goals were personal wealth and fame. Fame before wealth even.

As a newly minted PhD, let me just say, having a PhD doesn't mean you are smart. Many PhDs are clueless outside of their specialty field. In fact, most people can achieve a PhD given the time, guidance, and resources. This guy is a faux outrage machine, plain and simple.
They are inheritors of British civilization, democracy, and high culture. So they inherit the white supremacists mindset as well, both in territorial claims and intellectual advancement that accompanies a superior civilization (even if it was just an ex-colony), they think they are still higher than Chinese dogs.

One common mistake, perhaps made on purpose, to demonize a rival is to claim that their leaders and their government never cared about the country but only want to enrich themselves and to steel their grip on power at the expense of the people. This is what the US has always said about China. But generally, I don't believe it, especially not as it pertains to highy competitive nations like China, USA, Russia. So I would not make this same claim about Trump; I believe he is a patriotic American who thought that he could strongarm the world and make America so huge and dominant that it wouldn't be any crime at all to take an extra slice for himself. And how he exited was a result of mistakes upon mistakes piling onto each other until it was all a mess and his inner child came out in a disoriented tantrum.
