Coloring descriptions (emotions), for many human situations.

Had to try to fit Donald Trump into this book. Does his high IQ interfere with his EQ? Most people emotionally understand & follow him, world wide. Xi, Putin, Boris, etc also are successful?
Unsure the goal of emotions. Then we look at their private lives, their work success, and life effectiveness. Similar insights into pop & movie stars, royalty and other role models. Does this book work?
Overall this book is a collection of folk hints. It assumes average intelligence, high skills in the English language, and adult life & work experience in advanced civilizations. It is hard to understand the true compromise that each & every situation forces on us. This book tries do hard to make sense of senseless living, it seems. Like describing the coloring schemes of a machine, without understanding the functions & purpose of the machine.
