    23. Superseded by #52
    The lead includes the following sentence: Trump ordered a travel ban on citizens from several Muslim-majority countries, citing security concerns; after legal challenges, the Supreme Court upheld the policy's third revision.

    37. Resolved: Content related to Trump's presidency should be limited to summary-level about things that are likely to have a lasting impact on his life and/or long-term presidential legacy. If something is borderline or debatable, the resolution does not apply. (June 2019)

    38. Do not state in the lead that Trump is the wealthiest U.S. president ever. (RfC June 2019)

    39. Supersedes #21 and #36. Do not include any paragraph regarding Trump's mental health or mental fitness for office.

    40. Include, when discussing Trump's exercise or the lack thereof: He has called golfing his "primary form of exercise", although he usually does not walk the course.

    41. Omit book authorship (or lack thereof) from the lead section. (RfC Nov 2019)

    42. House and Senate outcomes of the impeachment process are separated by a full stop. For example: He was impeached by the House on December 18, 2019, for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. He was acquitted of both charges by the Senate on February 5, 2020. (Feb 2020)

    43. The rules for edits to the lead are no different from those for edits below the lead. For edits that do not conflict with existing consensus: Prior consensus is NOT required. BOLD edits are allowed, subject to normal BRD process. The mere fact that an edit has not been discussed is not a valid reason to revert it. (March 2020)

    45. Superseded by #48

    48. Supersedes #45. Trump's reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic should be mentioned in the lead section. There is no consensus on specific wording, but the status quo is Trump reacted slowly to the COVID-19 pandemic; he minimized the threat, ignored or contradicted many recommendations from health officials, and promoted false information about unproven treatments and the availability of testing. (Oct 2020, RfC Aug 2020)

    49. Supersedes #35. Include in lead: Trump has made many false and misleading statements during his campaigns and presidency, to a degree unprecedented in American politics. (Dec 2020)

    55. Regarding Trump's comments on the 2017 far-right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, do not wiki-link "Trump's comments" in this manner. (RfC December 2021)

    56. Retain the content that Trump never confronted Putin over its alleged bounties against American soldiers in Afghanistan but add context. Current wording can be altered or contextualized; no consensus was achieved on alternate wordings. (RfC November 2021) Trump's expressions of doubt regarding the Russian Bounties Program should be included in some capacity, though there there is no consensus on a specific way to characterize these expressed doubts. (RfC March 2022)

    57. Do not mention in the lead Gallup polling that states Trump's the only president to never reach 50% approval rating. (RfC January 2022)

    58. Use inline citations in the lead for the more contentious and controversial statements. Editors should further discuss which sentences would benefit from having inline citations. (RfC May 2022, discussion on what to cite May 2022)

    1. Reply briefly with a link to Talk:Donald Trump/Response to claims of bias.
    2. Close the thread using {{archive top}} and {{archive bottom}}, referring to this consensus item.
    3. Wait at least 24 hours per current consensus #13.
    4. Manually archive the thread.

    This does not apply to posts that are clearly in bad faith, which are to be removed on sight. (May 2023)

    62. The article's description of the five people who died during and subsequent to the January 6 Capitol attack should avoid a) mentioning the causes of death and b) an explicit mention of the Capitol Police Officer who died. (RfC July 2023)

    63. Supersedes #18. The alma mater field of the infobox reads: "University of Pennsylvania (BS)". (September 2023)

    64. Omit the {{Very long}} tag. (January 2024)

    65. Mention the Abraham Accords in the article; no consensus was achieved on specific wordings. (RfC February 2024)

    67. The "Health habits" section includes: "Trump says he has never drunk alcohol, smoked cigarettes, or used drugs. He sleeps about four or five hours a night." (February 2021)

    Trump's Middle Eastern brokering

    Moved from my Talk page for discussion.

    Violation of editing restrictions on Donald Trump You have violated the following editing restriction: "If an edit you make is reverted you must discuss on the talk page and wait 24 hours before reinstating your edit." Self revert immediately. Also the significance for his life and Presidency is that the Accords were his major foreign policy success during his time as President and led to him getting recognition as a pro-Israel President. You know, literally what the sources all say?! Davefelmer (talk) 15:52, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Dave, FWIW, you seem to do a lot of tough controversial edits to article text w.o. getting talk page consensus. This is likely to be frustrating and unproductive. I suggest you do the right thing and try to gain talk page buy-in. RS do not elevate this to the level you claim, IMO. SPECIFICO talk 16:14, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Davefelmer, I'll self-revert if I have violated the 24-hr BRD cyle but I'm not sure who's in violation here.
    On second thought: Are you counting my self-revert for the purpose of providing a better edit summary and the repeat of my initial reversion of the second editor as a revert falling under the 24-hr BRD cycle? Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 16:58, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    I would say this is not yet a significant enough event for us to say it is part of his lasting legacy.Slatersteven (talk) 17:44, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Not wishing to stray into WP:OTHERSTUFF territory, but This article is fill of things less significant than the Abraham accords. I think the sole argument to their exclusion is establishing his degree of personal involvement. Their notability and impact here in the middle East shouldn't really be in question. https://www.google.com/search?q=trump+abraham+accords&safe=strict&client=ms-android-samsung-gs-rev1&prmd=inv&sxsrf=ALeKk02sdy4fAkPuSY7xwFEi-KF-K0GT5g:1617817681936&source=lnms&tbm=nws&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwiGw_jB2OzvAhXOYcAKHXkfByoQ_AUoAnoECAIQAg&biw=384&bih=724Pipsally (talk) 17:53, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    And I am not sure that two wrongs make a right. This article should be about him, not his presidency.Slatersteven (talk) 18:04, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    What matters is the consistency, the article is rife with content about his presidency, it's literally almost his entire lead and most of the body! You can't arbitrarily decide to enforce a standard now that is not reflected in 90% of the article. The only question based on the consistency of this article and other articles for major political figures and ex presidents is the notability element, which as his major foreign policy achievement it absolutely is, both to his presidency and himself. Davefelmer (talk) 19:53, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Your search appears to have produced mostly opinion pieces from right-wing and/or Republican-affiliated sources. Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 13:32, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    If this is to be mentioned here at all, there really needs to be a reality check..how the Accords were largely a face-saving nothingburger for all parties, how the Palestinians and Iran were marginalized in the discussions as well. In short, yes, a political boon to Mr. Trump at the time, but it accomplished precious little. There may be some quotes to mine from several Brookings Institution fellows here... Around-the-halls: Experts analyze the normalization of Israel-UAE ties. Zaathras (talk) 23:56, 7 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I recall commenting on this in a previous discussion where I posted multiple articles (from the NYT and USA Today among others that I can't remember) that called these developments in no uncertain terms the most significant policy achievement of his administration. User:Slatersteven, I am curious if you have perhaps come across newer articles (as if I remember right the last time I looked at this was many months ago) which do not consider it significant, and I can't find the last discussion in the plethora of archives here to confirm. Back to general discussion (not directed at Slatersteven or anyone in particular) I think we need to remember that our guidance here is on what reliable sources say about the significance, not what we personally think it is - and thus it would be a good idea for us to start compiling lists of sources that call them "significant" or "face-saving nothingburgers" (or similar) so we can make a determination based on what a majority of reliable sources say. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 00:00, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I am saying its too early to judge its lasting impact (or even if it has any meaningful impact) or to determine just how much he was personally responsible.Slatersteven (talk) 09:59, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Slatersteven, forgive me for pinging you back but I hadn't seen this until now. I agree that it's too early - but reliable sources have taken to calling this one of the most significant (and some even call it the most significant) foreign policy achievement of his time in office, and as such, it should be included here if his foreign policy is discussed in this article. There is an argument that none of it should be included yet (both for article size reasons as well as too soon), but if any is included, this needs to be per RS characterization as the most significant. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 18:48, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Which ones?Slatersteven (talk) 18:49, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I can't find the previous discussion (and don't have links saved right now) but I pointed out quite a few at the last time this was discussed months ago - maybe someone better at searching archives (it was on this talk page) can find that and link it here, alternatively I'll try and find such sometime in the next few days. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 18:54, 21 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • The Gulf states weren’t and never had been at war with Israel, they had informally normalized their relations with Israel for years, and now Kushner reportedly is writing a book about how he helped to negotiate the non-peace deals. (Also—apparently—how he generally saved America but that's off-topic here.) For now the event is only a signing ceremony for vaguely worded ("pursue a vision of peace") self-promotion of some autocrats outside the White House which—honi soit qui mal y pense—had absolutely nothing to do with Trump’s reelection campaign. Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 13:38, 8 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    How is he not considered a politician?

    https://www.oxfordlearnersdictionaries.com/definition/american_english/politician?q=politician

    If Andrew Yang and Kanye West can be considered politicians on their articles, two persons who have never held elected office, why can the same not be said for a former US President? He meets the dictionary definition of the word, see above.

    DeaconShotFire (talk) 06:13, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Two wrongs do not make a right, so if other articles make mistakes its not a reason for this one too.Slatersteven (talk) 09:36, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    You say, while neglecting to respond to the fact that he meets the dictionary definition of the word. He is also in fact still referred to as a politician at the top of this talk page. And could you please explain how those other 2 articles are mistaken? DeaconShotFire (talk) 09:44, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    "politician /pɒlɪˈtɪʃ(ə)n/ noun a person who is professionally involved in politics, especially as a holder of an elected office." Professionally, as in it's your job, you are paid to do it. So as Trump made much of "I will not take a salary" https://www.cbsnews.com/news/did-donald-trump-say-hed-refuse-to-take-a-salary-as-president/ he was not a professional politician. As to the others, this is not the place to discuss then=m.Slatersteven (talk) 09:52, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Source? politician noun - Definition, pictures, pronunciation and usage notes | Oxford Advanced American Dictionary at OxfordLearnersDictionaries.com as linked above has "a person whose job is concerned with politics, especially as an elected member of a legislature (= governing body)" with no requirement to be paid, your CBC link makes no such requirement but, to the contrary, states "Trump wouldn’t be the first president to forgo a salary. According to Snopes.com, he would be joining John F. Kennedy and Herbert Hoover, who both donated their entire presidential salaries to charity." Are you claiming that JFK and HH were not politicians, or indeed that they were entitled to say they weren't? . . dave souza, talk 13:44, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    He DID take his salary, as he was constitutionally required to do. Like three other (rich) presidents before him, he donated it. He'll continue to get paid for the rest of his life plus the funds for office staff and space (wonder how much rent Trump's Mar-a-Lago charges Trump's office?). The total could be around $1 million per year. He hasn't announced that he'll forgo any of those entitlements or donate equivalent amounts to charity. Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 11:38, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    My point was he made much about how he was not a politician.Slatersteven (talk) 11:41, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    And you believe him because? Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 11:52, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Becaue I agree with him, the one thing he is not and never was is a politician. But beyond that anything I say is OR, soapboxing and (maybe) a BLP violation.Slatersteven (talk) 11:56, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    He most assuredly was a politician for at least his term of office. And I would include his 2016 campaign as well. Whether he was a more or less "normal" politician or a "good" politician may be discussed, but it cannot be denied that he was a politician. --Khajidha (talk) 17:41, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    The wording of the first sentence was decided per consensus a month ago. I actually agree with you but IMO it's too early to start another discussion. Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 11:38, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Focusing on the payment issue here is arch semantics. Someone who has held the office of President is clearly and demonstrably a politician. He may not have been a good one, or a typical one, but he's one none the less Pipsally (talk) 10:27, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Of course he was (or is) a politician, but it's redundant to call him one when we call him the president, and he has never held another office. Kolya Butternut (talk) 16:03, 11 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Guys, I can't see if the user who opened this discussion signed off with their username, but I agree with them that this is a really important point. Regardless of your political affiliation, it's absurd to reference a United States president's past occupations before his role as a world leader in their wiki bio. For example, Ronald Reagan was a hugely famous Hollywood actor before his own presidency -- which is directly comparable to Trump's fame before his own rise to office. Now, look at Ronald Reagan's lead from his article: "Ronald Wilson Reagan (/ˈreɪɡən/ RAY-gən; February 6, 1911 – June 5, 2004) was an American politician who served as the 40th president of the United States from 1981 to 1989 and became a highly influential voice of modern conservatism. Prior to his presidency, he was a Hollywood actor and union leader before serving as the 33rd governor of California from 1967 to 1975." I think Trump's should also follow this format. Long story short, his role as President of the USA is obviously what the bio should lead with. Note how it doesn't say "Ronald Reagan was an actor who served as US President from..." How do we decide on this, other than just fighting over it in the talk page? Can we have a vote? Gossamers (talk) 16:08, 14 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    We did have an RfC about this, but one option that was left out was "Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is the 45th President of the United States, serving from 2017 to 2021.

As for the "one presidency wonder" thing -- the point is that if someone rose to become a *world leader*, then that's obviously their most notable achievement, and thus should be how you lead the article. I see where you're coming from, but you're quite clearly downplaying the significance of becoming a president.Gossamers(talk) 20:30, 15 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    @Kolya Butternut: It wasn't an RfC, it was a discussion of 10 options that—per the closer's remarks—did not reach consensus on whether the term "politician" should also be included in a first sentence that has a structure akin to that of choice A. The closer was mistaken in stating that adding "politician" was an idea some editors pitched during the middle of the discussion. It was first added as an option by Sdkb two hours after the discussion was started, at a time when three other discussions of the same matter were ongoing and several editors were opposed to starting another one per se as well as to the format of the fourth one. Trump may not be a "career politician" or a "professional politician" but he's been active in populist politics for decades. Maybe it's time to have that RfC.

    Ok, well I think we should first find biographies to see if they use the word. Kolya Butternut (talk) 14:35, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    From the first 20 or so results in a Google search (there’s more but I got sidetracked by the Daily Mail reporting on Trump visiting Trump Tower for two days in early March in his Trumpforce One, a Cessna). They all say that he's a politician, albeit not a normal, typical, coherent, seasoned politician.
    I would focus on biographies:
    Kolya Butternut (talk) 00:34, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    This is Wikipedia, not Encyclopedia Britannica or biography.com. Britannica appears to apply the label politician somewhat selectively. They don’t use it for former presidents Trump, Obama, George W. Bush, Bill Clinton, Reagan, and Carter but they do use it for George H.W. Bush. They don’t use it for former Senator and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton but they do use it for former Senator and Secretary of State John Kerry. As for "biography.com", they don’t call Obama and George W. Bush "politician", either, but they are the go-to source if you want to know their zodiac signs (Gemini, Leo, Cancer). Also, the article contains too many factual errors and omissions and is too poorly written to be taken seriously.Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 10:43, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    I mean, he's not considered a professional actor, either, even though he's technically had more movie gigs than his one single-term political office.

Space4Time3Continuum2x (talk) 12:38, 17 April 2021 (UTC))[reply]
    It's an issue of repetitive redundancy. Since he is a politician because he was president, we don't need to say both that he was a politician and president. It would be different if he had gone the approved route, starting as a local elected official, then moving through the ranks, becoming a governor or senator and finally president. TFD (talk) 14:48, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    • I'm utterly unsurprised to see this. Of course he's a politician, since he was president of the United States, which makes you a politician. And of course we should include that fact in the lead. The large discussion referenced was so terribly organized (see the comment I made early on in it) and so divided that it has very little precedent-making power, and I think the closer erred in trying to conjure a consensus out of what was really just a complete mess. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 16:55, 17 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Suggested addition to Post-presidency section.

    A New York Times article was released in February 2021 stating that President Biden barred President Trump for receiving intelligence briefings out of office. I would like to suggest that this be added to the “Post-presidency” section of the article, as all other living former presidents do receive briefings.

    Here’s a link to the article: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/02/05/us/politics/biden-trump-intelligence-briefings.html?fbclid=IwAR2coyi8JTSi_EhapllBje7OE2l7vuPFUk0XxmoYHHHIvlnkM2C1A1JuxAE LordVesuvius (talk) 18:15, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Suggestion: Add COVID-19 Recession (and possibly COVID-19 death toll) to Paragraph 4 of Article

    In paragraph 4 of the article, the part that details President Trump's reaction to the COVID-19 pandemic (in the sentence after his appointments of Supreme Court justices), it should include a sentence about how the pandemic led to an economic recession that led to President Trump leaving office with fewer jobs than when his term began. This detail about the economy is crucial, because the recession itself played a big role in Trump losing re-election. Additionally, should there also be a sentence about how 400,000 Americans died of COVID-19 by his final day of office? Please consider making these additions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Captainamerica099 (talkcontribs) 13 April 2021 20:27:43 (UTC)

    This is a biography of a person, not an article about his presidency, nor the recession, etc. The sentence about his reaction is there because it directly involves him (his reactions).

    So? It does not matter if he is wanted, to be a fugitive he must be fleeing and hiding, he has done neither.

    A. Wikipedia is not an RS, B. No it does not, as Trump is not "taking refuge in a different country in order to avoid arrest", as he is (in fact) a resident (and citizen) of the USA (and in fact has left to go to other countries as well, and I am not sure he has ever actually even been to Iran), nor is he "hiding from law enforcement in the state". Drop this silliness please, this is going to be my last word on this.Slatersteven (talk) 09:21, 26 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Two good points, I concede to you. He's also taking refuge in America to avoid familiar domestic media and state process servers, and is mainly refusing to visit Iran because he's heard it's one of "those shithole countries" that keeps "children in cages" with "murderers and rapists" always "invading" from Iraq and "crossing in caravans" from Afghanistan.

    This. Reliable sources rightly so give no weight to that warrant when talking about it beyond the "routine" coverage of covering it briefly when it first came out. Even in the small amount of coverage that it has received, many sources go to extra lengths to clarify that it's a political warrant, not a legitimate criminal warrant. -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 20:21, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Are these reliable sources generally pro-America and anti-Iran? If so, fair enough to bury this for POV reasons. But the warrant is verifiable and active, and the story about the underlying crime in Trump's foreign policy section is thus plainly incomplete and falsely suggests this suspected terrorist was given impunity by everyone (for better or worse, arguably).

    • I thought this was done, because the thread topic was on including two specific categories (Category:Fugitives wanted by Iran and Category:Fugitives wanted by Iraq), and the overwhelming consensus is to not include them. They certainly aren't "defining" attributes of Trump.

    It seems obvious to me it should be..why isn`t already worded that way? 2600:1702:2340:9470:8883:4B26:17AB:9CB3 (talk) 22:19, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    What does that mean in English ? What are you really trying to say..that trump is not a misogynist or that it`s not a character flaw ? 2600:1702:2340:9470:8883:4B26:17AB:9CB3 (talk) 22:33, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    It means that we don't have to list every negative trait about the man in the lead section. Just mathematically, we have only 4-6 paragraphs, and I'm sure there are at least 15 paragraphs of negative material to write about the man. User:力 (power~enwiki, π, ν) 22:36, 23 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Do any RS say that "many of his comments and actions have been characterized as mysogonsitc"? The point is he used dog whilstes as a campighn strategy (which is what many RS claim), I am n9ot sure they havcwe said the same about him using mysogony to win votes.Slatersteven (talk) 09:02, 24 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    Absolutely. BBC is the top Google result, but there's a litany of RSP-greenlit sources to choose from. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 22:25, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    • Support. Allegations about Trump's misogyny have been thoroughly documented and have received a comparable level of media attention to those relating to his racism. There is room in the lead for one additional word, and I strongly disagree with 力 that the fact that the information is negative in a lead with other negative information already present somehow means it should not be included. {{u|Sdkb}}talk 22:28, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
    I agree..it needs to be in the lead in addition to the allegations of sexual misconduct against minors 2600:1702:2340:9470:ECAE:6827:C0A:C280 (talk) 23:24, 28 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

    Racist or Prejudice?

    When I think of racism, it is a stronger form of prejudice where someone considers one race superior to another. Prejudice (pre-judgement) is "An unfavorable opinion or feeling formed beforehand or without knowledge, thought, or reason. Any preconceived opinion or feeling, either favorable or unfavorable. Unreasonable feelings, opinions, or attitudes, especially of a hostile nature, regarding an ethnic, racial, social, or religious group." Growing up, my generation was taught a very firm distinction between the two terms. I wholeheartedly, undoubtedly think Trump pre judges people based on race, religion, sex, gender, etc. He'll kick you out of a country but he wouldn't take it to the extremes. He's a fast talker from the 50's-80's and that is simply not the same thing.Jawz101 (talk) 15:49, 27 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
