Leader without empathy?..... dictator?

Imo yes, no good leader is without empathy.

Humans can come up with good solutions by understanding the situation without being emotional.  But I did state in my previous post that it depends as you so graciously bolded.  So why take such a polarized one sided response?  I didn't.

Problem is Trump is probably the most emotional presumptive leader I've ever seen. Just about anything can get him to lose his cool, he takes the bait on many things that I'm sure even his advisors would wish he'd not get involved in. 

That approach probably works ok in the corporate world where being ruthless and being a blow hard can kinda work for you, but I don't think that'll work in the arena of governing actual human beings (big difference from cutting deals for real estate).
