Everyday he shows why he's the stupidest president ever. He makes Dan Quayle look brilliant.

(16,937 posts)wouldn't you love to hear some person that has become a part of his dumb-ass photo ops look at him and say, "Sir, do you have ANY idea what the f**k you are talking about?"
A HERETIC I AM
(24,377 posts)He has said as much on multiple occasions. He is convinced he is the smartest person he knows and if you don't agree, you are a very low IQ individual.
His malignant narcissism knows no bounds.

no one knows adjectives better than Trump. He also knows the best words.
Just listening to him lowers MY IQ... FFS, he sounds disabled...have you read transcripts of his interviews or speeches?!?! I dont recommend it...its physically painful... NO disrespect to the disabled here, I realize the comparison is insulting to the truly disabled...

(14,998 posts)He babbled vapidly about steam vs electromagnetic catapults during the campaign. That was 2 years ago. Get some new material, you dope.
But it's the only thing he can think of to talk to a Navy person about, because it's the only thing he can apparently (mis)remember about the Navy. In 2 years as POTUS he hasn't come across anything else about the Navy -- even wacko conspiracy theories or the like -- which stuck in his brain.

Poor Wharton.
watoos
(7,142 posts)I would like to see his diploma because one of his professors actually called him the dumbest student he has ever had, but back to Wharton.. Trump claims he went to Wharton Business college when in fact I believe he only went to Wharton undergraduate college. Maybe someone can verify that?
PJMcK
(22,048 posts)Trump's lie has always been that he got his MBA from Wharton and he was the top of his class.
In fact, he spent two years at Fordham, (an excellent school, of course), then he transferred to Penn where he finished his Bachelor's degree. While there, he took business classes at the Wharton school. When he graduated, he was not listed as having any honors whatsoever. He did not earn an MBA.
Trump lies.
He's an idiot.
SMC22307
(8,090 posts)Or at least I think it is. Dirty Don attended Fordham for two years then transferred to Wharton. I think he "managed" an undergrad degree but not an MBA... I gotta verify that.
jmowreader
(50,562 posts)Wharton is the business school of the University of Pennsylvania. They award bachelor's, masters and doctoral degrees. Trump has a bachelor's. (Exactly how much of a degree do you need to become a landlord like Trump did?)
ooky
(8,929 posts)I don't believe he has ever done anything honest in his life, and he doesn't appear to be smart enough to earn a bachelor's degree from anywhere, much less Wharton. Plus, he's too lazy to do it without cheating.

The Velveteen Ocelot
(115,836 posts)Of course not; that was a rhetorical question. But he's holding an electromagnetic device in his tiny hand. Speakers, hard drives, household appliances, motors, generators, doorbells, fucking garbage disposals have electromagnets in them. All of them work properly and you don't need to be Einstein to operate them. Maybe he's thinking of maglev technology? Like he thinks there are maglev ships or something?
Weapons-grade stupidity. I don't think I've ever seen anything quite like it.

Stand, Navy, out to sea, Fight our battle cry;
We'll never change our course, So vicious foe steer shy-y-y-y.
Roll out the TNT, Anchors Aweigh. Sail on to victory
And sink their bones to Davy Jones, hooray!
Anchors Aweigh, my boys, Anchors Aweigh.
Farewell to college joys, we sail at break of day-ay-ay-ay.
Through our last night on shore, drink to the foam,
Until we meet once more. Here's wishing you a happy voyage home.

I have forgotten more about steam plants and electromagnets that that orange dumbass will ever know...
