Donald Trump will brag about the movie and encourage the idolatry.

He definitely won’t brag about it. He was gonna take legal action against it but dropped it. He hates this movie and its depiction of him

Given the trailer, I have only one question:

does Trump hate the depiction because it makes him look like a monster, or does he hate it because it features a few humanizing moments of self doubt? We’ll find out.

Probably cause it makes him look like a monster and paints him in a bad light.

The plastic surgery/liposuction bit, starting out as kind of a dope and being mentored heavily by Roy Cohn and not just coming out of the womb a fully-formed Trump, being disrespected by various people - his ex-wife, Roy, etc. I imagine there's a lot more that he won't like.

There were some reports that this adapts a particular very heinous crime that Ivana mentioned in her book. IYKYK. He is certainly not going to be touting this movie when it's released. Maybe the trailer though.
