"but He and his plans are still Earth-bound, sinful (i.e. of Man), and doomed to failure. They may not be "evil" in the sense that we think of, but they DO fall short of the Glory of God NO MATTER WHAT."
Edit: Actually, I did not say that Trump is doing God's work. I said that what Trump is doing "seems great".
Trump is still a sinful man. Just like you and I.
ALL have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God. It is WE that must be reconciled to God. But, WE are not capable of this, ourselves.
Putting mind first or totally in charge creates confusion.
The heart is our connection with God. Let Him in. Then have your mind descend to your heart where God is. This allows you to start letting God work with you and through you without your mind constantly interfering. Or don't.
Btw this is from ancient Christian Church teachings. Christianity is a Way of Life and Christians are taught that Christ didn't come to start a new religion but instead He came to end the need for religions.
If Trump is doing God's work, then...reconcile.
