Baker's Evangelical dictionary of biblical theology. "SAINTS" the word saints is derived from a Greek verb (hagiazo -aJgiazw) who's basic meaning is "TO SET APART" "SANCTIFY" "MAKE HOLY" when people think of the word saint or holy they think of perfect or sinless, but this is not biblically correct, if this was true who could be considered holy? For God has said in Romans 3:23, "There is none righteous no not one for ALL HAVE SINNED and fallen short of the glory of God" Therefore a holy person, is not someone righteous or sinless but someone who is set apart. Holiness is something that God does for us not something that we have done for ourselves. In Acts 10:15 God says, "What I have called holy, let no one call unclean" in other words (as an example) if in fact God has called Trump (set him apart) for His purpose,who are we to say Trump's not fit? In the Bible a person or a vessel is considered holy when God set's it or them apart and it does not have to be perfect to be set apart by God (and in fact no one was except for Christ). If God waited for a perfect person, to get things done on this Earth, nothing would get done until Christ returns, because there is no perfect human being. We are saints and holy because God has set us apart for himself, not because we earned it, or even deserved it. (Leviticus 20:24) Says "I am the Lord your God who SEPARATED YOU from the people's". Acts 13:2 "The Holy Spirit SEPARATES Barnabas and Saul for a special purpose SETTING THEM APART for the work to which they have been called" 2Timothy 3:5 "But you are a chosen race, a holy priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession that you may proclaim the excellencies of him WHO CALLED YOU OUT of darkness and into His marvelous light." I hope this helps. So in this light, the light of God's word, yes Donald Trump could be called A saint, in the true meaning of the word, which is someone who has been set apart by God for His purpose. (if in fact God has called Trump) Cyrus, when he was called, and set apart by God to deliver Israel was not a godly man, and Cyrus certainly was not the man whom Israel would have chosen or expected to deliver them. Footnote: God is known for picking the most unlikely, the most flawed, so that when marvelous works are done through this flawed individual there can be no doubt that it was God who has done it and the praise belongs to Him alone.
