No you just reinterpreted it the way you thought it would make Trump look bad. TDS strikes again.

The closest thing to any Antichrist is Trump. One definition of an Antichrist is a liar.
As a negative archetype Trump fits the bill perfectly.
The Bible tells us that the Spirit of Antichrist is among us already.
THE Antichrist is the personification of this spirit (Satan)
We should be looking at movements, systems, or groups that display the works of this Spirit. It is likely that the Antichrist will come out of this system.
Some hints would be:
Resistance against Christians and Christianity
Resistance against Judo-Christian traditions and morals
Resistance against freedom of worship and assembly
Child sacrifice or the killing of the young
Putting government above individual freedoms
Putting faith in science and other worldly knowledge above the Word of God.
Which system promotes these more? Trumps or Biden’s?
Anti-Christ in terms of its original meaning is pseudo-Christ. A fake Christ. It doesn't mean 'is against Christ'.
Christ (from the Greek 'Christos') means 'anointed'. So if someone calls themselves 'anointed' when they aren't, they are an anti-Christ.
Trump The Anointed?
en.m.wikipedia.org...
In Christian eschatology, the Antichrist, or anti-Christ, is a person prophesied by the Bible to oppose Christ and substitute himself in Christ's place before the Second Coming. The term (including one plural form)[1] is found five times in the New Testament, solely in the First and Second Epistle of John.[2] The Antichrist is announced as the one "who denies the Father and the Son."[3]

In 2 John 7, a more specific reference is made to contemporary rejection of Christ by those who deny the reality of the Incarnation: “For many deceivers have gone out into the world, men who will not acknowledge the coming of Jesus Christ in the flesh; such a one is the deceiver and the antichrist.” John is anticipating docetism, the view that Christ merely appeared to be in the flesh and was not actually incarnate. From these four passages it is clear that antichrist, according to John’s definition, is a theological concept primarily and relates to rejection of Christ or heretical views concerning His person.

Every president in my lifetime has been speculated as a possible antichrist and I would not be surprised if this extended to every president in History.

Even the liberal editors got this one right.
Interestingly you switched out the word “ false” with “fake”. You do not understand the context of the term “false prophet”.
Here is a definition I preferwww.biblegateway.com...
