The multiple bankruptcies, for instance. Those show him failing, and then not taking personal responsibility for his failures.

Point out how he is laughed at so much. It's not that the rest of the world doesn't like him - he can withstand that, because he can paint it as "they fear me" - but that they don't take him seriously. He is not someone they could work or negotiate with. No-one outside the American Republican party thinks he's up to the job.
