Donald J. Trump, 45th President of the USA - Need a curator please and thank you

Sorry, Cheley. I mean the political junk on the About of his profile.
It is not as though Wikipedia isn’t fallible or biased and this editorial where his Biography should go is unacceptable especially now

Mike Stangel, surely one can do a comparison of the two Presidential candidates and SEE how blatantly biased this profile is?

Hi, Cynthia Curtis, A183502, US7875087 . It's pretty standard for us go use the intro section of someone's Wikipedia page as their Geni "About" section. That's especially good in cases like this where we want something that's impartial and focused on facts instead of commentary. The Wikipedia article has been agreed upon by Wikipedia editors from across the political spectrum, so it's about as good as it gets.

I do try to update the "About" every few months to keep it current with the Wikipedia article intro. I'm happy to do that again.

(Sorry, my original post went through like six times! Apologies for any excess notifications. :))

I'm not seeing any hearsay on this Wikipedia article; it's all cited on Wikipedia, which we intentionally link. Is there a particular section you think is unsupported that we should address?

We should go ahead and update to the current version, but I'll wait to let folks weigh in.

Sources are in the "References" section of the Wikipedia article. The intro summarizes the cited information below.

I'm perfectly happy to replace the bio section -- but we need to have a viable alternative. Which public domain or copyright-safe alternatives can you propose, Cynthia? We use Wikipedia because their licensing allows us to use it on a commercial website. That isn't true for virtually all other sources. And although they're public domain, we don't use official White House biographies for presidents and vice presidents, past or present, because they're written like campaign materials.

So if you have a viable alternative, I'm happy to use it! But we need the suggestion(s).

For the record, neither the National Archives nor the Library of Congress provide public domain biographies of presidents. That's one of the reasons we, for 13 years, have used the Creative Commons ones from Wikipedia.

He is on my Freemason lineage to Van Horne's to Roelofson Rule, New York, New Jersey, Beard and Donaldson, Van Doren, But the Trumpfheller, is in Germany, Trump is a solid Mason I believe as all presidents except 3 something like that JFK Jr was not Ab Lincoln

Just stick to the basics, who he is and who he is related to. And lock the profile. There are people who have no respect and will use any platform to attack someone they dislike because of their own ideology.

I agree Stephen Combes [Gedcom : NA147701C1] and Unknown Profile et al. I have a Wikipedia account but I don’t go making political comments on anything and this is certainly NOT a biography. The About for President Trump needs to be just a bio. If you are not sure how that needs to look, see Biden’s profile.

Use Wikipedia in the sources section...not in his overview section. I don't know why a curator would have to use anything other than their own words. Their own words aren't copyrighted material from someone else. If we all HAD to use Wikipedia in every profile that we have created, most of my profiles would be blank. Has Donald Trump himself been asked for permission to accept what is put on his profile? I think not...

Diana Collins, excellent point and I have wondered myself since Mike Stangel has posted several Discussions himself pertaining to living people asking for profiles to be corrected or removed. I recently saw the name of a celebrity as someone who ADDED a profile and when I clicked on their name it went to THEIR own curated profile. I highly doubt the About is what the president or his family would write for him so why is it ok? I am arguing that it is NOT ok.
It is extremely important that people keep their politics to themselves in a day when having a flag in one’s yard can get them killed. Media is guilty of fanning the flames. This is a genealogy site. I can read Wikipedia or any number of editorial sites. An About for a sitting president is not the place to cut and paste and is no excuse for this one.

I object to “not” having biographic material in Geni profiles, and I “do not” want anyone to have to leave Geni (external source) to gain that context.

So if you object to Wikipedia, supply other text yourself (in discussion) for evaluation. FindAGrave members write some simple and accurate celebrity bios, surely someone here can do so.

I see the filthiest of political trickery going on in America today and none of this belongs on the Geni site nor should any references be made to sites that disparage either of the two presidential candidates. These cheap political tricks simply do not belong on any Geni discussions. Let's all grow up and think of something nice to say that does honor to the Geni site.

Wikipedia is fallible and biased - any fool can go in & change it
This is why Wikipedia is not used or allowed in any professional school as a reference

This is not the first About section for a sitting president in Geni’s history. Obama’s profile also had more than just skeleton information when he was the sitting president, also taken from Wikipedia. So that would be the precedent.

If what you are asking for is a policy that no sitting president should have anything more than basic information in the About section, that needs to be separately argued.

And of course, it would mean that no sitting leaders across the globe should have anything more than skeletal information in their About sections, either, since the United States is not a special case.

Keep WIKI bios OFF of Geni regarding Modern Day USA presidents!

Perhaps that should be the new rule, don't use a bio that originated from elsewhere but instead just enter the basics and if they have achieved something newsworthy (Trump's peace deal for instance) add that info with a source URL.

Given the situation, it is more likely that any biography of politicians will be defaced by morons. As soon as a political figure's page has a bio and info added, it should be locked and only sensible people given access to make updates.

This is one of the reasons I have not been using this site. Nobody's political agenda should be shoved down other's throats, especially on a genealogy page. I get it. Somebody despises the President. Get over it, move on to something productive. There should only be factual information presented here, especially on a profile of a President of the United States. I have not even looked at the profile since people started adding all the false information. Very current information absolutely cancels out much of these fairytales. Please clean up this profile to only include facts.

I agree that politics and subjective opinions do not belong on any serious genealogical website. Elected public officials are quite often the subjects of smear tactics, particularly during election season. But just because anything can be said about anyone doesn't mean that it ought to be repeated, especially on a formalized Geni profile. Genealogy is about family and kinship. A sitting president and his family deserve as much respect as anyone else. The US and Americans deserve as much respect as any other nation. You can respect people and still disagree with or dislike them. But it is far more mature and professional to respect other human beings.

There is always two sides of every coin, deal, etc, if it's not one thing it's the other, more workers in the coal industry, good, and of course bad at the same time as we got more pollution and more earlier death among the workers and people in the affected areas, a peace agreement that satisfies two of three sides is still bad for the side left over. What to wrote about a sitting president is not that easy that you can only mention one thing but not the other bad side effects if mentioned at all.

Okay then, let's dive in.

1. >> His election and policies have sparked numerous protests. Trump has made many false or misleading statements during his campaign and presidency. The statements have been documented by fact-checkers, and the media have widely described the phenomenon as unprecedented in American politics. Many of his comments and actions have also been characterized as racially charged or racist.

June 16 – A photographer for the Dallas Advocate was hit on head with a rock that had been thrown from a crowd outside a Dallas rally that included both Trump supporters and protesters.[71]
June 19 – During a rally in Las Vegas, Michael Sandford, a 20-year-old British national, was arrested for assault and held in the county jail until he was arraigned in federal court and charged with "an act of violence on restricted grounds". He was accused of attempting to seize a police officer's firearm and later claiming he intended to kill Trump. A British citizen, he was in the U.S. illegally and is being held without bond.[72][73] He has since then pleaded guilty to federal charges of being an illegal alien in possession of a firearm and disrupting an official function.[470]
July 2020
July 1 – Three people were arrested after a conflict occurred between Trump supporters and anti-Trump protesters outside the Western Conservative Summit. According to The Gazette, a man grabbed pro-Trump bumper stickers from a woman selling them outside Denver's convention center, ripped some of them, and threw them in her face. A pushing match then ensued, with many people spilling into the street.[471]

2. The idea that fact-checkers have concluded Trump has made many false or misleading statements are backed by the following Washington Post article: https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/politics/trump-claims-datab... If you want to argue that these are not false or misleading, or that the totality of them do not constitute "many" then let's hear your evidence for such a claim.

3. I would support removing or modifying the line "the media have widely described the phenomenon as unprecedented in American politics" as it would be nearly impossible to provide evidence for what "the media widely describes". Certainly many reputable media sources have said as much, but what is to be considered "widely" ?

4. The source for the line "Many of his comments and actions have also been characterized as racially charged or racist" is at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Racial_views_of_Donald_Trump and it seems fair to say that these comments HAVE been characterized as racially charged or racist. This fact is (among other things) at the center of of Trump's reputation as a politician.

5. >> the Iran nuclear deal, eventually increasing tensions with the country. He recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel, and imposed import tariffs triggering a trade war with China.
> Very much an opinion very much biased

The Wikipedia article has since been updated and if a curator wants to update the About to reflect the update, that's fine by me. I fail to see what's opinion here, though; withdrawing from the Iran nuclear deal DID increase tensions with that country, as evidenced by an official statement from Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs: "We are extremely concerned that the United States is once again acting contrary to the opinion of the majority of states and exclusively in its own narrow-minded and opportunistic interests, in flagrant violation of international law"

Trump did issue a proclamation on December 6, 2017 that stated "With respect to the State of Israel, that requires officially recognizing Jerusalem as its capital and relocating the United States Embassy to Israel to Jerusalem as soon as practicable."

Trump did impose import tariffs on Chinese goods (to name two: solar panels, which China manufactures more of than any other country; washing machines, for which China was the leading exporter to the US in 2016). "Trade war" is evidenced by China's response, which was to impose tariffs in 128 products imported from the United States. If retaliatory tariffs aren't a trade war, I don't know what is.

6. >>A special counsel investigation led by Robert Mueller found that Trump and his campaign welcomed and encouraged Russian foreign interference in the 2016 presidential election under the belief that it would be politically advantageous, but did not find sufficient evidence to press charges of criminal conspiracy or coordination with Russia. Mueller also investigated Trump for obstruction of justice, and his report neither indicted nor exonerated Trump on that count. A 2019 House impeachment inquiry found that Trump solicited foreign interference in the 2020 U.S. presidential election from Ukraine to help his re-election bid and then obstructed the inquiry itself. The House impeached Trump on December 18, 2019, for abuse of power and obstruction of Congress. The Senate acquitted him of both charges on February 5, 2020
> I must say This is biased and it is baseless and Inaccurate.

What's inaccurate about it? The Mueller report is at https://www.justice.gov/storage/report.pdf and it states, "the investigation established that Russia interfered in the 2016 presidential election through the “active measures” social media campaign carried out by the IRA" [Internet Research Agency, which the report also states was headed by a wealthy Russian businessman with ties to Putin] and "the investigation established multiple links between Trump Campaign officials and individuals tied to the Russian government. Those links included Russian offers of assistance to the Campaign. In some instances, the Campaign was receptive to the offer, while in other instances the Campaign officials shied away. Ultimately, the investigation did not establish that the Campaign coordinated or conspired with the Russian government in its election-interference activities. "

The House impeachment report is at https://docs.house.gov/billsthisweek/20191216/CRPT-116hrpt346.pdf and it states, "Using the powers of his high office, President Trump solicited the interference of a foreign government, Ukraine, in the 2020 United States Presidential election" and "In the history of the Republic, no President has ever ordered the complete defiance of an impeachment inquiry or sought to obstruct and impede so comprehensively the ability of the House of Representatives to investigate ‘‘high Crimes and Misdemeanors’’. This abuse of office served to cover up the President’s own repeated misconduct and to seize and control the power of impeachment—and thus to nullify a vital constitutional safeguard vested solely in the House of Representatives."

With the possible exception of that "widely" remark, everything I see here is FACT. If any of you want to suggest alternate text for this About section, feel free to present your text here along with proper evidence.

So this is attached to his profile. Now remove half the stuff that is on his About.

Again, I suggest LOOK at Biden's profile. Let that be a guide. Look at some others. There does not need to be controversy. Yes there are two sides but actually, more than that. All he needs is the basics. The rest is dependent on one's personal and world view.

Former President Obama is lovely. No word on Benghazi, Fast and Furious, no mention of Bergdahl or the Body guard scandal in Cartagena... nothing about the ring he wears as his wedding band or any statements from his own autobiographies or from his half brother... None of that and I am fine with it. Lets look at William Blythe/Clinton's next...

Yup! Nothing of the blue dress or "depends on what the definition of the word is, is"
...

Please. I and many others just ask for a simple bio without the other stuff.

Claiming that other profiles are missing facts isn't really a very good argument for removing facts from this one. Should we remove mention of the Holocaust from Adolf Hitler's profile? Maybe erase Stalin's biography and just state that he had a really bitchin' mustache?

If you want to put factual information on the profiles for Biden, Obama, or Clinton then be my guest.

It is not about erasing or adding. Simply about being consistent.

As I said....there is no need to add a bunch of derogatory remarks on someone's "overview" page. Someone's opinion as to what are "facts" should be added into the "source" section. There are many celebrities and other famous people that have profiles that do not blatantly display all the dirt on them. There is an adult mannerism...called "respect" ....that more and more people are lacking these days. Whether you LOVE or HATE Trump is irrelevant here. If you hate him, you make say "He deserves to be made to look a fool". The bible says to turn the other cheek....judge not lest ye be judged. The voters will determine their opinions on him by casting their vote. I don't see any mention about Monica Lewinsky and the "cigar incident" on Bill Clinton's profile. What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Shall we just try any dig up as much dirt as we can...add a little water...and start flinging the mud around!

Should we remove mention of the Holocaust from Adolf Hitler's profile? Maybe erase Stalin's biography and just state that he had a really bitchin' mustache?

Comparison of our US President to those monsters is just atrocious!
