The deductive thinker quote hit me yesterday...I think you also posted the one I saw.

It is true. Trump responds so often to people asking about this or that at the convention or in the fall campaign, and he returns to saying that he wants to close the primary campaign deal first. He doesn’t get easily sidetracked.

That is strategic thinking in action. Remember how much he stressed strategy in his foreign policy speech? Strategy is the way Trump thinks. Ted's shooting from the hip - which is why his campaign is cratering - he doesn't have an overriding core strategy. He would be the same as president.

Strategic thinking is an innate strength. You can't really learn it. Gallop says that 1 in 10 are born with true leadership skills, skills that cannot be learned.
