REPORTER: What do you think the world should be doing about climate change?
TRUMP: "I feel the US has tremendous wealth... I'm not going to lose that wealth on dreams, on windmills - which, frankly, aren't working too well... I think I know more about the environment than most."

Again: He doesn't know that he doesn't know, (and so, he can honestly imagine he knows) and he is, in effect, the Dunning-Kruger effect incarnate. You can learn all you need to know about that from him, so, at least, there is some benefit and somebody is learning something because he sure won't.
And that phrase, to me, about thinking he knows more than most is really, really pathetic. Calling him a true, card carrying ignoramus is putting it way too mildly.
Oh, and I would so like to see a candid picture of him without his dentures in. Can't somebody take one?

(5,914 posts)He is quite literally the dumbest, most incurious, most willfully ignorant creature I have ever seen.
I've known some pretty conventionally stupid people. Every one knew something they could tell you about something, whether it was how to clean a fish, how to mow a lawn, whatever. Trump knows absolutely nothing about every conceivable subject. And he and his idiot cultists are proud of that.
