Here is a perfect example of extremely poor leadership skills.

The Golden State Warriors based at that time in Oakland, California, won the NBA championship. Traditionally that meant a nonpartisan trip to the White House to give the sitting president a jersey and get your picture taken in a jacket and tie.
Steph Curry, the MVP leader said he probably wasn't interested in visiting Trump at the Whitehouse because of some racist nonsense the media was using to tarnish Trump.

Trump, acting like a 13-year-old where the bully just gave him a wedgie in front of the cool kids, screwed the pooch and said he wasn't going to invite the Warriors to the White House, breaking tradition.

IF Trump had real leadership skills, he'd have said something like:
"That is too bad. Mr Curry gets paid $200M to endorse expensive sneakers made in China to sell to disadvantaged kids in Oakland. We give free school lunches to these same kids since they are so poor they can't afford to buy oatmeal for breakfast.

I'd like to discuss MY IDEA with Mr Curry that perhaps he become "the black panther" and bring those shoe making jobs to Oakland. Teach the parents of the kids getting free lunches how to show up to work on time and manufacture a product their kids want. Of course, they won't be as profitable making shoes in China, but Mr. Curry said he wants to help his people, right?"
THAT would be leadership.
