Why do we not recognize that Trump does the same kind of thing constantly? Foot-in-mouth disease, or shooting from the hip.

Even without the benefit of modern media and cameras recording every utterance, Winston Churchill was renowned for mean statements and foot-in-mouth comments that pissed-off wide swaths of the British populace. He was legendary for public put-downs and wild statements…and he had to work much harder to do it.
To some extent, It goes with the territory. If you are Uber cautious about every utterance or everything you write to ensure vanilla propriety, you become a “leader” like Mitch McConnell, who never makes a gaffe or says one word out of color. How’s that working for you?
