Well... it's Trump... again. #47, here we go.

Maybe Iran can borrow a few nukes from their buddy Putin. Why re-invent the wheel?
 
This has been demonstrated to be fake.
More like “false” I think. It barely pretends to be “genuine”.
Some more credible estimates have the Felon’s IQ at around 110, which comports with my understanding and knowledge. But he’s such an underachiever, his words and actions would put it closer to 73. Here’s what perplexity says would be typical manifestations of a person with an IQ of 73.
Does it ring any bells?

• Cognitive Abilities: They may struggle with abstract thinking, complex problem-solving, and understanding nuanced or indirect language. Their thinking tends to be more concrete, relying on direct examples rather than general principles.
• Language: Expressive and receptive language skills can range from relatively developed to noticeably limited. Some individuals may communicate effectively in everyday settings, especially if they have strong adaptive skills, while others may have difficulty with complex grammar, following multi-step instructions, or understanding subtle social cues.
• Adaptive Skills: Adaptive functioning—such as self-care, social interaction, and practical daily living—can be a relative strength or weakness. Some people with an IQ of 73 may function independently in many areas, while others may need support with organization, planning, or social interactions.
• Social Behavior: They may miss social cues or misunderstand social norms, sometimes acting in ways that seem immature or inappropriate for their age. Social interactions may be more challenging, and they may be more suggestible or eager to please authority figures.
• Daily Life: With support, many can hold jobs, drive, and participate in community life, though they may require guidance or accommodations. Without support, they may struggle with independent living and complex tasks.
 
Today I am pleased to announced that I made things go ka-BOOM! in the Iraqs, or Iran or whatever. I made stuff go ka-boom. I used bunk-bed buster bombs to make the big ka-booms, which incidentally are the finest, biggest bombs in the history of the world, the best bombs, and I made the biggest ka-BOOMS in history. I did this to destroy the nuclears, the bunk beds where the Irans make the nuclears. I won’t get a Nobel peace prize for this, for making the ka-booms. Obama got a Nobel peace prize, even though he’s from Kenya. I won’t get a Noble prize even though I solved the Middle Easts. I did that, I solved the Middle Easts. Melania said that. Melania said, she said, “The Donald, you solved the Middle Easts!” But I won’t get a Nobel peace prize for that.
 
I'm sorry I didn't see this the first time around.
It reminds me of a link I saw during the 2016 campaign.
It clamed Rump had the highest IQ of ANY Pres.
It linked to a website that desplayed the IQs of ALL the presidents, all the way back to Washington.
Think about that for a minute. ...

IQ scores wern't invented untill the 1920s.
140 years after Washington's term.
I wonder what the IQ is of the genius that created the site. Of course MAGAots will believe it.

I saw that “all presidents” piece, back when.
First thought - it probably drew its estimates on verbal skills only, based on attributed writings. I doubt that they held any time-controlled closed book tests to determine John Tyler’s mathematical acumen, but they might have given him points for graduating college at 17.

If that is the same site I saw, it ranks Trump as an IQ of 156 — purely on his say-so. :rolleyes: The rankings are complete rubbish.
 
A thread on the relative intellectual merits of the presidents might be interesting. I don’t think IQ means much, and in any event, we can’t know what the IQs of presidents were prior to the invention of the IQ test. The other thing of course is that high intellect is no way a predictor of good moral character. Jefferson was no doubt brilliant but morally lacking. Even Lincoln noted this. Lincoln himself was clearly quite inteligent with a strong flair for writing and a highly analytical mind. But he read few books — he said he never finished a novel; he tried Ivanhoe but couldn’t get through it. Yet he had a great love of Shakespeare; and then again, when one of his aides tried to get him to read Origin of Species, he said, “the waters are too deep for me.” Trump and Dubya are clearly dunces. Wilson was highly intelligent but morally bereft when it came to his virulent racism. And so on.
 
Because of the ire drawn by repeating that Trump has an IQ of 73, I spent a few minutes trying to see what an AI ‘bot thought about it.

AI (perplexity) was VERY reticent to cough up an IQ estimate for Trump. He didn’t appear on any “all presidents” list. I had to ask about him specifically.
At first it said various estimates were 90-156, and that the much ballyhooed 73 number was false. I think it was afraid it might offend him if it left that out. 😆
Phased differently, it repeated that range of estimates, and added that the most reliable estimates put him in the “average to above average” range. That would mean 90-129.

I for one, am glad he’s as stupid as he is - I believe it limits his destructive capacity.

You must not be watching the current news.

People smarter than he is, who are legion, will use his power as a useful idiot to enhance their destructive abilities and power.

I admit there’s only so much Stoopid I can take.

Their will is mitigated or at least somewhat limited by Trump’s blessedly abysmal stupidity and selfishness.
