If one were to look up the definition of 'straw man argument' this should be in the definition. He sets up an argument, and then 'defeats' the very issue he set up.
OK, the president is not an emotive person. I like that about this guy. I like that as a principle. I don't need to 'feel' the president's pain, joy, etc.
What I do note is a lack of leadership, decisive direction, or executive decision making. THAT is what makes me 'emotive'.
