Anyone can talk the talk when they're being fed their lines via teleprompter (see: oBUMmer).

It takes a sharp-witted intelligent man to keep his wits about him free-styling speeches for hours at multiple rallies a day.

It also takes a very special kind of man to not only stand by his views through an onslaught of adversity, but to remain level-headed through it all and to steadily keep accomplishing his goals in the background even with the persistent adversity against him.

For someone to possess both that keen mind and that indomitable will, as well as the resources to fully utilize his rare talents, all without any desire for eternal political power (as seen by Trump regularly diminishing the President's personal power by restoring checks and balances at the federal level while returning excess power back to the state/local levels)? That's something you're lucky to see once in a century.
