Based on Trump"s past 24 hours, estimate his IQ

[Doodley]

He couldn't remember his father was born in New York, not Germany.

The noise from wind farms cause cancer.

He could only say oranges, each time he meant to say origins.

He thought congress could get rid of judges and that's what it should be doing.

He thought the midterm elections were rigged and that's why Republicans did badly.

He said he thought immigration could be fixed in 45 minutes.

He forgot he had already said he was happy for the Mueller report to be released.

He thought it was a good strategy to repeal ACA and come up with a replacement after 2020.

Closing the border with Mexico wouldn't be good economically, after saying on Friday that it would be a win.

Based on this, what do you think is his current IQ?

1. You can't judge a person's IQ with questions like that.

What we're seeing is a combination of extreme narcissism and possible age-related memory loss.

[Doodley]

5. If he took an IQ test today, what result do you think it would give?

It isn't just memory loss. It is critical thinking.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

9. I have no idea. There are a number of different IQ tests,

and the questions are intended to evaluate a variety of specific things. Some parts evaluate visual and spacial skills, abstract reasoning, math, vocabulary, etc., and the scores are added to arrive at a total, adjusted by a person's age. So it's completely impossible to know what any person's IQ is without them actually taking the test. I do think Trump is a right dumbass; I just don't know whether it's because he's developmentally disabled (probably not), intellectually lazy (almost certainly), too narcissistic to admit he's ever wrong (definitely), and/or suffering from age-related mental decline (very likely).

30. I suffer from what trump does. I don't like seeing him chastised for something he can'thelp

The condition is called aphasia and results from a brain injury or lesion. It causes lose of words and inability to say words. This is what happens to me. Oranges. He is a stupid ass in so many ways but this particular aspect maybe can’t b helped. I give him an iq of 70.

3. Where was the oranges/origins thing?

I change the channel every time he is on my tv.

4. I am going to estimate his IQ is about 70.

[0rganism]

6. i estimate he's a sick sick television personality who needs to get lost on a golf course

before he kills us all when his lumbago flares up.

7. 2.

8. He would flunk an IQ test. However....

He is brilliant as a con artist. He knows his targets, knows how to "relate" to them, knows who to scapegoat, knows how to push buttons that will turn people against one another (divide and conquer), fraudulently casts himself as a superb deal maker who will improve people's lives, profits from marketing worthless products (Trump University), and is adept at concocting excuses and flat-out lying whenever things go south on his watch. He is woefully ignorant but is incapable of recognizing any limitations, and his "trust your gut" smugness actually inspires his followers who also happen to be ignorant beyond belief. Trump has them locked in, and one must give him "credit" for pulling it off so well in the short term. In the longer term, history will not be so kind.

[Doodley]

12. I agree with your analysis, but cannot give credit any more than I can give Hitler

credit for scapegoating and playing to the very worst aspects of human existence.

[Karadeniz]

10. I never thought he had even 100 IQ.

[Historic NY]

13. Appears his mental deterioration is accelerating....

all those diet cokes don't help either.

[nolabear]

14. IQ isn't the issue but it has been one helluva day.

He seems to be decompensating. I say this as a pro. I think something is changing.

[TreasonousBastard]

15. I've noticed that, too-- he seems to breaking down in some way.

[safeinOhio]

16. All we really need to see are his

SAT scores.

Release the results.

[raccoon]

17. Sounds like dementia to me. Nt

[leftyladyfrommo]

18. I watched a Harvard psychiatrist the other day.

He had a really good case for dementia. He was comparing the young Trump tapes with the current ones.

He seems to be in rapid decline based on his use of language.

[Vinca]

20. He's probably got an average IQ, but he's obviously suffering from a potpourri of mental illness.

First and foremost he has his narcissistic personality disorder with a dash of paranoia thrown in. On top of that there is some sort of senile dementia going on and it's happening rather rapidly now.

[Snake Plissken]

21. About five points lower than the IQ of the shit I just took after my morning coffee

[Celerity]

31. TMI!!!

[Johonny]

22. Orange you glad to see me

No, no we are not.

[TheBlackAdder]

23. 114, hyper-concentrated on sociopathic behaviors.

[GoCubsGo]

24. It's probably average.

Everything we have observed about this asshole has origins other than low intelligence. He is the product of shitty, disgusting parents who were every bit as as nasty and hateful as he is. They raised him to be a spoiled, entitled brat on top of following in their asshole footsteps. He had everything handed to him, and never had to work a day in his life. We're seeing the same thing with his putrid, rotten offspring.

As for the forgetting and word jumbling, that is likely due to a range of other things, including cardiovascular disease, long-term drug use, and maybe even untreated venereal disease. And, some of that forgetfulness is probably just his usual games-playing. He loves to gaslight.

[Luciferous]

25. IQ doesn't have anything to do with it, I honestly believe he has dementia.

[Mr Tibbs]

26. Everything he says is a lie

[Celerity]

32. need a closed caption programme that says the exact polar opposite of what the orange dobber spews

Would certainly be close to the truth.

[Mr Tibbs]

35. OK, that was awesome!

[Fiendish Thingy]

27. It's not so much an issue of his IQ...

Which is probably low average (85-100), but more a matter of possible cognitive decline due to the onset of dementia.

Dementia, combined with a lifetime of just Making Shit Up, could explain what we're seeing.

[Turbineguy]

29. The standard IQ test established 100 as the mean

That half the population ranks below 100 explains a lot

[jmowreader]

33. Congress can get rid of judges via impeachment

Unfortunately for him, “Obama nominated that judge” is not grounds for impeachment.

[Mountain Mule]

34. Befor or after the onset of dementia?

Trump is a pathological liar who suffers from ongoing cognitive decline made worse by the stress of his situation. He can't think straight anymore than he can talk straight. I seem to remember reading that malignant narcissists actually lose IQ points because of their condition. I believe that after two years of watching the orange buffoon.

[lunatica]

36. His IQ is the same as his ardent followers

Birds of a feather and all that.
