I think the political instinct trump brought, and that you're alluding to, was his ability to never admit being wrong about anything. Yes politicians have always done this to some extent but he's taken it to a whole new level.
It's the method of saying what you want people to believe and think over and over with complete confidence until they actually do, even if it has no basis in reality or is stupid and wrong.
It's incompetence as a political platform.
And other politicians have noticed how well it works, so now they do it to (see: hegseth).
