If you're okay with this, you just might be a fascist.
Why wouldn't he tell them that?
Besides it being illegal, as per the Hatch Act?
All politicians tell the crowds how to vote. Get real man.
The President is exempt from the Hatch act.

In robust democracies, the common people have a healthy disrespect for
their leaders. Which means that behaviour like this tends to be seen
as self-serving and, frankly, counterproductive for election
prospects.
The wise leaders understand this, and try to refrain from acting so boorishly.
Maybe Americans are a bit more credulous, and see no problem with
politicians making bald-faced self-serving pronouncements -- I donrCOt
know ...
