Exactly. He's not a supervillain. He's not a moustache twirling evil genius who's subtly tricking everyone with his bumbling moron act. He's just not particularly engaged and doesn't think about what will happen when he does this stuff.
The problems that New Era highlighted are absolutely consequences that can occur when politicians talk this way, but all of that flies over his head, because he doesn't particularly care about any of it. That's irresponsible and dangerous, and wilfully so, so he's obviously blameworthy. But this "master manipulator" stuff is, indeed, giving a guy who's got some talent for conning average people, and no real intellect, far more credit than he deserves.
