Trump is a CEO not an inspirational speaker.  He's running the country; he's not an ideological spokesperson.  This country has made the mistake, most notably with Carter and Obama, believing that people who are smart and talk nice are good leaders.  The best leaders are those who take action instead of talk; who make decisions instead of endlessly trying to find compromise.  It's the definition of leading:  stay out in front while others follow behind you.  Jefferson, Lincoln, and FDR were great leaders for their acts, not their rhetoric.  They made hard decisions even if it pissed some people off.
