    I don’t know what the fuck Trump has, but it’s certainly not charisma. The guy can barely form a coherent thought when he’s speaking, makes a fool out of himself every time he speaks, and is pretty much wrong about everything he says.

    Still somehow has millions of people voting for him, so maybe it is some bizzaro reverse charisma or something.

      charisma

      kə-rĭz′mə

      noun

      • A rare personal quality attributed to leaders who arouse fervent popular devotion and enthusiasm.
      • Personal magnetism or charm.

      Is he charming? Depends on preference I think. Does he “arouse fervent popular devotion and enthusiasm”? Absolutely. Why? Hard to say exactly (again, personal preference) but he fits the dictionary definition of “charismatic” to a T.

        I would say that it’s a form of charisma. One that works on his MAGA faithful but that doesn’t work on the rest of us. (If anything, it’s like anti-charisma to us.)
