True but politicians typically glance at you for a split second, nothing more, because they are thinking “next” and “how soon can I get out of here.” He seemed to be fully present, taking time with each person, genuine.

Are you confusing "politician" and "Big Tech CEO"?

A common stereotype of a politician is "shaking hands & kissing babies." Whenever there are voters or cameras around politicians know how to turn on the charm. They need votes and you don't win votes by giving voters the impression you don't have time for them or that you're not genuinely interested in their opinions (regardless if you really give a shit or not).
