Yes. Trump says many cringe-worthy things. He always has. This is part of his persona, his "schtick". Many times I hear him say something egregiously, gratuitously stupid, and I just wince. However, as you say, he is fairly effective, when compared to most of the alternatives.
His uncle was a physics professor at MIT of some renown. Trump might appear to be a clown, and he does tell a lot of jokes. But he is shockingly shrewd more often than not, in spite of a famously long list of failed businesses. He somehow manages to recover and continue after, however. He is sort of a showman, and a bit of a schlocky salesman. He rubs many the wrong way, however...
