Seriously? Come on.... really?
Every news organization has picked their favored side. CNN, FOX, NPR, you name it.
You're doing it wrong.

I think Trump is better than Hillary for Russia, because there is less chance of WWIII. A lot was made over Trumps tweets making him likely to use a Nuke, or something solid like that. But Hillary was as hawkish as any neocon you'll find.
The biggest issue for russia, I'd guess, is that Trump probably won't try to overthrow Assad's government. Hillary is pro bombing the shit out of muslim countries to fix them.

The BBC goes way out of its way to be impartial. Maybe you should look at that and shudder at how the world thinks of Trump.

Well the people in charge of the Doomsday clock disagree. Trump is a danger to the world and made it highly likely there will be a war because he does not know what he's doing, he's winging it and doing it very badly.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

Trump is a danger to the world and made it highly likely there will be a war because he does not know what he's doing, he's winging it and doing it very badly The Doomsday Clock is pretend. They've also started including climate change. But it's just some folks guessing and then representing the guessing on a clock, instead of with odds, for reasons that make no sense I can determine.
And the presidents aren't just winging it. They have an array of generals they are delegating to. Picking courses of action from options presented. Do you believe Barack Obama, based on his one term in the senate, knew what he was doing in running the united states military? Or Bill Clinton because he was governor of Arkansas? Or Ronald Reagan, as governor of california? Or George Bush as governor of Texas? The only one in recent history that seems like they might know on their own what was going on, was George H. W. Bush, who was director of the CIA.
And it's quite likely there will be a war. There's always a war. Usually two, it seems. But with Russia and China, the one's that matter the most in terms of end of the world, Trump seems to have taken a live and let live policy, while Hillary was ratcheting up the rhetoric.
How are we going to get in World War III with Russia if Trump is buddy buddy with Putin?

I will take a look at BBC news though. The reporting in the US has been very sketchy of late.

True but it gives a feel for how safe the world feels and the Trump made it worse.

Trump skipped security meetings and the ones he attends they:
A: have to just give him short notes because his attention span is so short and B: have to mention his name every few lines otherwise he drifts off mentally.
On other occasions ignores advise and just outright circumvents procedure.

Those people took advise. Trump just wings it with astoundingly misplaced arrogance. He is, and lets be generous here, a completly fuckwitted mentally deficient arsehole.

Can you point me to a BBC article that says Trump doesn't listen to advice, and just wings it in regards to military action?

The last several presidents all had one thing that cheetohead does not.
Experience in politics. Cheeto is just a class D famous guy with a sucky TV show, a bunch of bankruptcies, a failed university that conned thousands and he's got an ego the size of Montana.
