i don't think that's what that means at all ((or that 'working very hard for the Lord' is particularly what the POTUS is up to)). that is certainly not the meaning implied, and not the context it's used in, in scripture.
perhaps you were looking for is
Where no oxen are, the crib is clean:
but much increase is by the strength of the ox.
(Proverbs 14:4)
but much increase is by the strength of the ox.
(Proverbs 14:4)
that is, when you have oxen, they produce a lot of bull manure . . .
. . but they can do a lot of useful work.
((though again, not sure 'getting a lot of useful work done' is what's actually being accomplished. i would say the potential is there, because he doesn't appear hamstringed by such things as 'proceeding with care' or 'thinking things through'))
i think there's another adage about bulls, and stabling them in china shops, that may also be appropriate. but that one isn't necessarily about getting useful work done.
as far as perspective, let's remember that he arguably sits in the position of the most powerful man in the world. his spitwads are far more forceful than the ones from the kid in the back of the room, and should the speaker at the head of the class be shooting spitwads anyhow?
or maybe we should drop the perspective altogether: if a photoshopped picture of one person holding the head of another is 'cyber bullying' and inciting violence, isn't a gif of one person body slamming another the same?
fighting fire with fire burns the whole house down, but 'a soft answer turns away wrath' and 'remove the fuel and the fire goes out'
you and i have seen it play out in these forums hundreds of times; if one person acts rude and childish, and others respond the same way, the thread invites judgement and is full of sin. but if the person insulted reacts with grace, the first ones shame & error is immediately apparent to everyone and the thread can continue 'usefully'
but back to perspective, this is what we had in office a short time ago:

when the same thing happened at Trump's rallies, he called for goons to physically rough up his critics and have them thrown out, and proceeded with insults, riling up the crowd with animosity towards them as though they weren't 'really American' but his supporters ((and only his supporters)) are.
there is an obvious difference here, and i don't know that i'd call it 'good'

naw
I gotz all the points and the comments in between also
we just don't agree
I like and agree with most of what you have say though if that means anything
I don't care to have my opposite POV be called prejudice however
that is a door that swings both ways IMO if you want to go that way
jump to reply seems to infer I don't have the brain waves to comprehend the debate
mensa has not yet invited me to join, but maybe baby mensa will
Ha ha Trump is smashing them down
They deserve it
They deserve to be crushed into the ground
Don't let the boot off of their necks
Keep stomping these clowns
CNN ought to be humbled after the game they play
Making up their Russia fairytale
And putting it on for months every single day
Now they've been caught red-handed with this "Nothing Burger"
If Trump wanted to he could have them dancing a hanged man's ballet
