I Don't Care How Dishonest and Corrupt He Is. But Do We Really Want A President Who's THIS STUPID?

At this point, the fact that Trump is dishonest, malicious, self-centred, childish and corrupt is irrelevant.

At this point, the most important question is: can we really afford to have a President that's so incredibly STUPID that he would SEND A TWEET FROM HIS iPhone DENYING THAT HE USES AN iPhone, without even realizing that EVERY DAMNED TWEET HE SENDS FROM HIS iPhone SAYS IT'S SENT FROM AN iPhone!?

Is THIS the master negotiator that we want talking alone with Putin; or Kim, in secret, un-accompanied meetings? Is THIS the strategic genius that we want bullying his cabinet officials into trade wars with China?

Any day he is expected to pivot,...

And become far more Presidential.

But don't hold you breath or nothing !

Shameless, blatant lying works. It's a tactic, his followers would be ashamed to be caught lying like that. But he is not ashamed. Therefore they believe he is telling the truth.

"Not all Republicans are stupid but most stupid people are Republicans."

So, yes, the lies do indeed work well within their bubble of willful ignorance and confirmation bias.

Actually, he smartly manipulates the stupid...just like he and his Daddy back in the Day. He's now in the "bankruptcy stage". When the gullible pay the piper. He slithers back into the darkness. All in a day's work.
