He assumes in most public instances that he talking to adults. Even when the President Elect is indulging the usual political blather his whole manner exudes maturity and the ineffable expectation that he is, in the end speaking to grown ups on terms of equality.
This is a HUGE contrast to the outgoing President, who being dumb and malevolent assumed that his audience, indeed his very core base was fundamentally infantile in outlook and therefore tailored his remarks and rhetoric accordingly.
We need look no further than Bush's "farewell address" last week which was little more than a laundry list of lies and failure which the President with a schooyard bully's smirk all but dared his audience to contradict.
