Behind the scenes
In DWM 503, Steven Moffat, the showrunner of Doctor Who from series 5 to 10, answered the question, "What does the Doctor make of Donald Trump's decision to run for President of the United States?" Moffat replied that "although the Doctor normally takes no part in politics, he is disgusted and turbulent with rage" and went on to say that the Doctor has seen a parallel universe in which Trump won the election and the world was plunged into "certain doom".

In the real world, Trump did in fact win the election. However, an unnamed president in a simulation created by the Monks in the 2017 episode Extremis was a dark haired individual who did not have much physical resemblance to Trump. According to Moffat, the writer of Extremis, Extremis was written before but filmed after the 2016 election.

In The Pyramid at the End of the World, Bill Potts says she would have never have voted for the current president, as he's "orange".

Trump is later stated to have become president in the DWU by 2018, when the episode Arachnids in the UK is set.
