Yes. The problem is, no matter how technically smart they are, the real world eludes them.
Many things just don’t fit in tight little packages. Human nature takes care of that.
President Trump is not like the financial techs. He is the high level generalist who has years of business experience. His speech is not always polished like our elite POLs, but he grasps the real world better than they do.
It shows dramatically in his foreign policy success compared to defaulting to the gnomes in the State Department. He should listen to their advice, and then continue to chart his own coarse.
