A lot of what you say, maybe most, is true but it isn't a sign of a great leader.

Trump could get people to fall in line using fear.
  • Fear of the US having the biggest swinging stick on the planet. About time someone did this and stopped taking hind teats from the Europeans.

  • Fear of getting fired if you disagreed with him or his policies.
    (Of course that was part of his carefully crafted brand to convince people fixing government was similar to fixing a bunch of worthless celebrities trying to raise money for charity.)

  • Maybe if you shout louder, use all CAPS and tell me and other moderates who could have voted for him rather than a third party in the last election we are stupid, it might change our minds. But a TRUE leader would have convinced us we were wrong to not have voted for him in 2016 and he deserved a second term. Heck, George Bush accomplished this.... his second term was not nearly as close as the hanging chad 2000 election.
Trump could get his sycophants to agree with him, shout down anyone who said he wasn't the greatest, etc.... but

TRUE leadership is bringing people together who have different ways of seeing the World. Trump was an absolute failure at that.
