Concerning Disney, I'm not sure what you mean. IMHO, it is much more creative with loops, curves, suppleness, ease and airiness, space between letters, and a playful, global look. But maybe I'm missing something.
I'm not familiar with Reddit and didn't know it had so many handwriting discussions.
I didn't use "global" in a graphological sense. Sorry, but I am not a native English speaker. And I'm just realizing that you compared Trump's handwriting (and not signature) to Disney's signature. So now I see what you mean! They're both print/script. But Trump's handwriting wasn't always like that.
Sorry for my mistake. My previous answer was off the mark.
Trump's signature probably became illegible around the 2000s - his second presidential bid.
Or when he was compering THE APPRENTICE.
Donald's handwriting looks a lot like Walt Disney - at least the logo
[I have not seen extended samples of the animation entrepreneur's handwriting].
Thank you for your comment, Adelaide.
I just found this which shows a very different, still legible, Trump's signature from the 1990s: https://www.reddit.com/r/Handwriting_Analysis/comments/db1ch4/found_donald_trumps_signature_from_90s_what_a/#lightbox
So, you maybe right about the timing.

Laurence:
I do see many of the things you see in the Disney signature.
I might raise you a Disney signature from Reddit [sadly the article which went with it was kaput!]
Here is another Disney signature - which was probably standardised

About Trump's signature - that is probably a five-year threshold
[1999 to 2004].
According to one Groove: the Disney signature we know is by one Pinto Colvig.
Someone else's thing from 1965 - https://www.reddit.com/r/disney/comments/115pdqk/walt_disney_autograph/
The most similar to what I saw this afternoon after I looked at your link
https://www.reddit.com/r/disney/comments/3mh5cw/the_secret_history_of_walt_disneys_signature/
and the ACTUAL *Handwriting Analysis* subreddit link - https://www.reddit.com/r/Handwriting_Analysis/comments/b6yw11/the_real_walt_disney_signature/
A very comprehensive piece from Leonard Maltin
https://leonardmaltin.com/yours-truly-walt-disney/
The Maltin piece - when I see the Disney signatures from 1949 and 1934 - I do understand what you're talking about and what you see.
Space between letters: Trump signature is very crushing [the present-day one].
And "global" does have a specific meaning in graphology [especially of the French and German schools].
[different from the American schools or the popularisations].
Thank you for the links, Adelaide.
