This is the truth. I think people underestimate him and think he’s stupid.

Lol. Trump is the dumbest human being on the planet. A useful idiot for the evil racist a**holes behind the scenes who are pulling all the strings.

Pretty good troll job by Peter12 though. Congrats.

I mean he's sociopathic and willing to manipulate, while not caring how many people are hurt or killed by his actions. I guess that's a kind of smart.

I think Trump is incredibly intelligent in some non-traditional ways, which has benefited him in both business and politics.

Traditionally, however, the guy is dumb as a rock.

Absolutely.

Yeah, he won't beat troutman on the LSAT (maybe he will, seems like a weird measure), but he's POTUS, so who cares?

Is this what they call living in someone’s head rent-free?

Whether or not Trump is smarter than everyone on CP, who knows? But he is more a pedophile than anyone on CP, that much is without dispute.

Trump has elite survival skills akin to a rat or cockroach along with being born rich and raised with no scruples. With a combination like that it's not surprising to see a person "succeed" in a culture that defines success largely by level of attention and money. By no measure of intelligence would he be considered smart. If you think he's smart that probably says more about you than him. Was George W. Bush also smart? He was President for 2 straight terms.

Trump's only goal is winning. That doesn't mean he actually wins, but if he can claim it, he does. And if he can't claim it, he also does. Trump is not a powerful man, he's proven under his own resources to be a 6 time loser.


The only reason Trump has power is because others made it happen. Whether it was Musk, project 2025, the endless lines of morally bankrupt mushroom vacuums, the Christofascists ignoring his morals because it suits him, the face leopard victims, and all other manner of horrible people too dumb to tie their own shoes.


I think it's a mistake to believe Trump is smarter than a 4th grader who discovered how bullying and reward systems work, because you end up chasing the wrong reality.


Trump is a ####ing moron and there is no shortage of evidence to that. He's not intelligent in any way. Stop being silly.

C'mon he did inherit 400 million dollars to lie, cheat and steal his way into 6 bankruptcies and an 'empire' that underperformed the market. Obviously a genius.

In the end, we for sure know that Trump is better at golf than anyone here on CP.

I'm still wondering why the orange dip#### misspoke a couple times saying he's going to Russia to meet Putin. Cognitive decline and confusion or is he selling out Alaska and slipped up?

Trump has a phone call with “the highly respected” Lukashenko in his way to Alaska. Of course you asshat, the only person who thinks he’s highly respected is you, and that’s only because you yearn for the type of power he holds.

His language usage for authoritarian leaders is just an abomination.
