He unilaterally pulled us out of the Paris Climate Accords and terminated the Iran nuclear deal.

More specifically, he renegotiated NAFTA with Canada and Mexico during his first term. Shortly into his second term, he said those deals were “bad” and ended them by imposing tariffs on the countries a couple of months ago.

He’s a loose cannon. There’s no consistency. Each day he wakes up with a different notion.
