Darn accurate actually.
Trump has proven himself as an excellent leader. He has followed the advice of the experts, deferring to their superior knowledge of the matter. No doubt he would like to go ahead and keep the previously good economy going until the election, but has allowed himself to be convinced by the experts that this would result in a human disaster.
Do I blame him for all the minutia attacks on his saying this or that that turned out to not happen?
No, I blame that on the millions who hate Trump more than they hate the virus.

Thinkingman I can care less about your back story. Also, why do you automatically default to democrats/left when someone oppose the current president? It’s lazy and it’s old.
MSNBC, man that schtick is so old. Its a go-to, understandable.

Looking at the results, I’m surprised.
I wonder how the results would be if it wasn’t anonymous. I knew some of you were doing a wacky bit to sit at the cool kids table. Be yourself…be honest.
Trump could be a leader and he shows flashes of leadership but he simply cannot stop from personalizing everything and making every situation about him.
Unfortunately for many the ability to “say as it is” and “stick it to the dems” is confused for leadership.
Trump is not helped by his inner circle of yes men and those influential in the media who will never be critical of him.

Okay 
No, Trump has close to zero leadership qualities. Just because he can be easily convinced to make a decision by his advisors, that does not make him a leader.
He was also convinced that millions of illegals voted
He was also convinced that Russia didn’t hack the DNC by Putin
He was convinced that there were good people marching with white Supremacists
He was convinced that North Korea wasn’t going to develop and test nukes after his love letters and date with Kim
He was convinced that signing a deal to build in Russia was a good idea while campaigning for the presidency AND after Russia hacked the DNC
That “quality” alone is not good leadership. Good leaders have the following qualities:
Empathy - the ability to feel for others pain, without having personally experienced their pain.
He does not have this… this is the same man that threw paper towels at desperate Puerto Rican’s after a catastrophic hurricane.
Integrity - Let me make this clear, every politician lies. Every human lies. Sometimes leaders need to lie to their subordinates in order to protect them or others. This isn’t Trump. Trump lies about stupid ■■■■■ He lies just to lie… and he is prolific at it.
Great Communication - He can’t spell and he can’t talk in complete sentences. Regularly. He is perhaps one of the worse presidential communicators of all time. However what he is good at is the “show” he is like Britney Spears. Can put on a good show but can’t sing. Trump can put on a show and can’t communicate.
Taking Responsibility Failures - Hahahahahahahahahaha. No. It’s always some else’s fault. And when given the opportunity, he will blame anyone else except fo him. I dare someone to find a quote where he blamed himself for anything. He actually said he does not need to ask for forgiveness. Please.
What good leadership quality does he have?
Charisma - He has the ability to speak directly to the heart of people who feel victimized by the media, Dems, China, NFL Kneelers and BLM. He is very good at this… and his lack of leadership qualities directly improve his ability to speak to this disenfranchised group.
His strongest supporters don’t understand what makes a great leader or don’t care because Trump is Peter Popoff selling miracle water. The miracle water he is selling is evil libz coming from an evil lib himself.

I voted no. There are no “good” leaders in Washington.
No thats not it. I genuinely think Trumps leadership during this has been lacking. Pence on the other hand has impressed me. He strikes a great balance between optimism and reality. He comes across as a credible man who can make decisions based on facts and not emotions.

This is an important point. A leader can be optimistic, while at the same time being realistic. Trump’s optimism was an attempt to please people and to say what they wanted to hear. That’s not leadership. That’s being a salesman.
No because I do not assume that everyone who is a Trump supporter is a Trumpist. Thats the hardcore supporters who would continue supporting him even if he said his wife had had an abortion a year since becoming President.
Yes I agree. I have always said if Trump had not come from money he probably would have ended up being a used car salesman.
