There are like, fifty times when she makes a notably stupid decision or should realistically be fucked beyond belief, but she always comes out of it ahead because the plot dictates it. She either trusts the wrong people or leads her people in the wrong direction or just does something really stupid on a whim but it alllllllways works out in her favor.
Maybe it doesn't come across as much in the show, I don't watch it, but in the books, it's really irritating. You can almost always bet on things working out for Daenerys no matter what she does because her plot armor is so insane that she almost seems aware of it and seemingly makes purposefully stupid decisions because she knows she'll always come out on top.
I always saw it as her council being adept enough to make up for her lack of rulership abilities ---
