I think the wandering style helps too. He starts on one subject, then diverts. The listener has to pay attention, wondering when he will get to the original subject. In a linear delivery, it is easy to "space out" as the speaker goes from point to point, never coming back.
Trump yells back ",Oh. we're going to build the WALL, trust me"!
That example there is because he's not on a teleprompter and he's able to interact with his supporters.
AMAZING SKILL

I could listen to Trump for hours and never get bored. With regular politicians, a couple of minutes and I’m thinking what to make for dinner.
