Qatar.
Is it a critical partner of US Gulf Policy? The Donald Trump of the Middle Eastern summit said so.
Is it a "funder of terrorism at a very high level," allied with those dastards in Iran? The Donald Trump of a few days after the summit, when Qatar's neighbors broke off relations with it, said so (taking partial credit for that action).
Is it a great customer for US military aircraft? Well, Donald Trump's Defense Dept. just signed off on a $12B deal to that effect.
You think Americans are confused about the President? Just think of about how our allies / enemies / clients feel.
