Agree completely. What Eli calls "bullshit" is really the "entertainer" aspect of Trump. An entertainer who knows how to connect with crowds. Someone who has been in the public sphere for decades - look back at old Letterman appearances, participating in skits on SNL, commercials he did for various companies. He has comedic timing. He knows how to connect with crowds and can quickly integrate current social happenings. And to top it off, he's just not a politician. He has a background no candidate has ever had in recent history. I agree with all your points - I'm hoping we get a chance to see what he can do for 4 years with a focus on leaving this country better than when he started. His motivation is leaving a legacy of success.

(the fear mongering of "dictator" "autocrat" is sad - he's giving it 4 years and he's out).
