God can use anyone He chooses to accomplish His will. Sometimes evil leaders have been thwarted in their wicked schemes, and sometimes God has allowed evil leaders to do things that ultimately accomplished His will (in spite of themselves), and sometimes He has allowed evil leaders to add to a nation's cup of iniquity.
God allowed us to have Obama, and allowed great wickedness under Obama, but God also kept us from total collapse. Obama was not our hope. Obama was not a man of God.
God has allowed us to have Trump. We don't really know how that will go. But regardless of Trump's leading, God is still the final authority. Don't buy into Trump just because he is Trump, and don't dismiss what God might do in spite of Trump.
(By the way, Obama and Trump both need Christ and His salvation, just as we all do.)
Do not transfer from the Glory Train of Christ to the Trump Train, any more than you should have transferred from the Glory Train of Christ to the Obama train. Be a good citizen, but always remember, as a Christian you have duel citizenship. You are a citizen of heaven, with Christ as your King, and you are also a citizen of whatever earthly country you belong. Duel citizenship does not mean equal allegiance.
Our loyalty belongs to God. The Bible tells us that God is our King, our Lawgiver and our Judge. No ruler, no law, no court has more authority.
As Christians, Jesus is Lord of our lives, and that encompasses all of life. Don't pledge (vow, promise, commit) your allegiance (loyalty) to anyone other than Jesus because that is idolatry. Remember, the "State" has been served and revered as a false god since the days of Nimrod and the rise of Babel and it will be the instrument used by the false god who rules during the corrupt days of the end times.
