[Humour] Who is the least intelligent?

[Triggaaar]

I have to accept it as a failing of mine that I am continually surprised at how stupid Donald Trump is. Just how stupid is he?

 

[Wrong-Direction]

As stupid as his long lost brother Boris

He is thick, but not George W. Bush thick.

Johnson's not stupid, he's just an objectionable personality thinly veiled by a bumbling oaf facade and the last person you'd want as your national figurehead regardless of his political persuasion.

 

[beorhthelm]

Trump, he's got by on brute personality rather than intelligence. i recall Bush jr both being humbled and he apparently had reasonable success as a governor of Texas (promoted wind power!).

 

[Triggaaar]

He is thick, but not George W. Bush thick.

I basically assumed that a few years ago. More recently I became less sure and now I'm coming to the conclusion that somehow, Donald is actually less intelligent than George.

 

[Is it PotG?]

Are we doing this as 'IQ' intelligent or 'wordly-wise' intelligent?

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Trump isn't thick. He's a ruthless narcissist with utter contempt for his fellow humans.

Bush is super thick, 'religious', and just a front man for the interests of his family and their cabal who directed all his decision. Remember his response to 9/11 when he was stuck somewhere with nobody around to tell him what to do?

Trump showed intelligence when he lied a number of times to prevent being enrolled for the Vietnam War. Although his Dad probably worked that one.

This. Trump used a global pandemic to air his nationalistic rhetoric and push his ‘America against the world’ agenda.

Pretty low.

Trump net worth - $3.100 billion (Thick as pig shite)

George W Bush net worth - $40 million (Even thicker than pig shite)

Tony Robinson net worth - $1 million (Had a cunning plan)

Indeed.

If you go by this thread, throw in a little power and the theory that ignorance is bliss, a net worth of billions might make Trump a happy bunny.

 

[Wrong-Direction]

Trump is obviously thick, which begs the question, just how thick are those that vote for him

Trump and GW Bush are very smart indeed, I’d say.

Doing things the left disapproves of, or even acting ruthlessly in their own interests, isn’t anything to do with lacking intelligence.

Bush used to play dumb. It was a good cover.

Very, very, very stupid.

The biggest mistake we can make is thinking someone like Trump is thick. He knew exactly what the people wanted to hear and he used that to get to power.

I think there's a subtle difference between being clever and being intelligent.

Trump can be very clever. He hits upon an angle that neatly captures an issue and pushes it relentlessly ('Build that wall', 'Make America Great Again'). He also ruthlessly characterises his opponents in easily remembered nicknames ('Lyin' Ted', 'Crooked Hillary' etc.). That makes him extremely effective.

But he is not very intelligent, because he has absolutely no grasp of nuance or complexity. He simply doesn't seem to understand anything that can't be framed in binary terms. And of course, like most entitled people, he has no humility and therefore no conception of the fact that he doesn't understand the issues.

Ruthlessness and cleverness, but a total lack of subtlety or complex intelligence, is why he is such a dangerous and terrifying figure, in my opinion.

I don't see Trump as stupid I see him as the most arrogant man on this earth

 

[Lincoln Imp]

I guess not the president who graduated from Harvard in 1975 with an MBA, the only U.S. president to have earned one.

 

[Triggaaar]

Very, very, very stupid.

I only saw this yesterday (missed it when it was news):

“Based on the fact that I work for Donald Trump as his secretary—and therefore know him well—I think he treats women with great respect, contrary to what Julie Baumgold implied in her article … I do not believe any man in America gets more calls from women wanting to see him, meet him, or go out with him. The most beautiful women, the most successful women—all women love Donald Trump.”

Carolin Gallego December 7, 1992


It's just pure Trump. When discussing the lack of Coronavirus tests in the US this week, he said "Anybody that needs a test gets a test; they're there, they have the tests, and the tests are beautiful"

I struggle to cope with just how ****ing stupid he is.
