> but he’s just so uncharismatic that he’ll never get anyone onboard whatever vision he has

I miss the times where vision was determined by substance, not charisma or other irrelevant to final result traits.

Its probably the reason why we have so many charismatic people pushing the world to the edge by stupid agendas. People just buy it.

I'm not clear on what substance he has beyond his argument of "I'm really smart and really rich and I think I should run things" though.
Also the technocrat vibes of "I'll grind the poor to a fine powder and use it to fertilize my private garden if no one stops me" are somewhat lacking in charisma.
