Trumpian Geometry

A postmodern form of geometry that promotes flawed thinking, where the correctness of a proof is relative—for example, in a geometric figure, if an angle looks right, then it is unquestionably taken to be ninety degrees; or if a line segment appears straight, then there is no reason to doubt otherwise.
Trumpian Geometry seems to exhibit the pattern of assumption-intimidation-conclusion, where answers to geometric problems are countries-dependent—for example, the answers to most questions when solved in Russia, Saudi Arabia, and North Korea are the same, but are situationally different elsewhere.
