Yes - he dramatically increased the use of drones:

And he eliminated the restrictions designed to prevent civilian casualties:

One of his first actions was to disband the Federal oversight of police departments set up explicitly to address this issue:

His DOJ rescinded orders from the Obama era that prosecutors shouldn't charge low-level drug offenses that had mandatory minimums with the exact opposite tact:

He's famously said that protesters should be roughed up and he explicitly said that police should seek to hurt the people that they arrest:

His Attorney General said that he was okay with the KKK until he found out they smoked pot:

If you don't think his actions directly lead to this, you're not paying attention.
He/she will go around, writing the same crap, until people will be to tired to rebuke it, and then he/she wins. We don't need trolls here. +1 to mike, -100 to the troll.
Also the argument what has he done can be answered with saying his actions of doing almost nothing in February helped kill many more people than had he acted faster on intelligence he received in January
Why do Facebook people walk out over a tweet and not over these issues? That is what is mind-boggling.
All of those examples are from "the media" - what you choose to consume is up to you..
> Whenever I hear something Trump in Europe (like now from the BBC) it is about one of his Twitter gaffes
It's not a twitter gaffe to threaten to extrajudicially murder protestors / looters.

Straws + camel's backs.. In any case, this isn't the first time their employees were fed up -- similar sentiment was raised when he called for a complete and total shutdown of muslims entering the US:

"In short, yes under certain circumstances.
....
The Insurrection Act says the approval of governors isn't required when the president determines the situation in a state makes it impossible to enforce US laws, or when citizens' rights are threatened.
Another law passed in 1878 requires congressional authorisation for domestic military use, but a legal expert told the BBC that the Insurrection Act was sufficient legal authority on its own for the president to deploy the army...."
With that said, let's hope that there won't be any more blood.
Trump calling to deploy "thousands and thousands" of "heavily armed troops" in US cities is much less obviously legal but hasn't really happened yet.
23 states deployed national guard in response to protests.
The obscene threat from trump was that he was going to deploy active duty military to states as well - which he hasn’t done and which would be unprecedented and extremely dangerous. He and Barr did take a half step by deploying other federal law enforcement in the capitol (DEA/BOP/DHS) which they likely did illegally as those organizations have no statutory authority in crowd control but the military would be an entirely new escalation and one that the joint chiefs / Esper seem to have talked him out of.
What has he done however? Has he droned people like Clinton? Has he started wars? Has violence against black people increased compared to the previous presidencies?
If the answers to those are "no", then please look at actions and not at words.
