[riversedge]

I think this was yesterday-It is real pathetic that Trump feels a need to remind folks about this family geniuses. But the genius line skipped his generation.


Donald Trump: “I don't like when people call me stupid. I had great heritage, an uncle who was a great, great genius and a father who was a genius. Everybody…We have a lot of geniuses.”

So weird that Donald Trump keep talking about his dead uncle who worked at MIT 50 years ago. As if that somehow makes him smart because of family blood line. I have little doubt that if Professor Trump were alive today, he'd vote like most White people with a PhD: Democratic.

1. I like Drew's response.

I guess in Trump’s world, I could claim to win golf tournaments or play semi-pro baseball, because I had an uncle and a grandparent who did those things.

Both of Kamala Harris‘ parents earned PhDs so clearly she is way smarter😂😀😂

20. Wait...my brain is melting from too much logic!

25. He can't spell that word

😀

[Think. Again.]

2. He doesn't like being called stupid, huh? That's good to know.

[RussBLib]

9. But he just loves....

....calling other people stupid.

This guy should be in therapy, and jail.

36. If he doesn't like being called stupid

WHY DOES HE WORK SO HARD AT IT?
Accept reality, Donold, it's the first step to recovery.

4. Yeah, his Uncle got to spy on Nikola Tesla

And 80 boxes of documents went missing! Learning of this it made me wonder if Uncle John stole those boxes. I believe they were able to recover 60 or so boxes. Still some missing.

True story.

[BOSSHOG]

5. HERITAGE?

I have a long gone Great Uncle who was in the KKK in Indiana in the 1920s. I accept that fact with sadness. We share the same DNA. I am nothing like him. Trump says a relative was a genius. Trump lies. Constantly. About everything.

On a much needed lighter note. Fans of Car Talk, remember when Tom or Ray would say:

MIT WANTS THEIR DIPLOMAS BACK. Now Tom and Ray were geniuses.

18. Does anybody screen these calls?

I have three CDs of their shows. Back when I had a CD player in my truck I couldn’t drive listening to them for fear of having an accident while laughing. They were a treasure.

26. I loved them, but I never heard that line. Anyway...Good memories!

6. Well, we know what to do. Ramp up the stupid calls. :) n/t

7. How many years ago did he take that dementia test? It must be the only test he ever passed, ...

... he can't stop talking about it.

[Irish_Dem]

28. He probably didn't pass it.

[unblock]

34. for him, lying is pretty much the only point of speaking

honestly, the fact that he bragged about passing it and claimed it proved he was smart is itself a massive red flag.

even if he passed it, most people understand it's not a test to show you're "smart" in any meaningful way; it's not an IQ test.

it's a test to see if you're in mental decline. to see if you can't recognize common animals or if your short-term memory is compromised.

"passing" it merely means you're not in decline. it shows you're mentally competent at a very basic level, not "smart" in any sense of the word.

the fact that he tries to make it sound to like it shows he's smart tells me that most likely the people around him know he's in decline and that they had to lie to him, tell him it will prove he's smart, to get him to take the test in the first place, and then whatever the results were, they told him it proved he's smart. this is a very common scenario played out in families across america when grandpa is in decline. many families don't see a point in trying to convince someone they're deteriorating mentally. they need to find a way to take away the car keys, but they don't need to be cruel.

the fact that he bought the lie is actually a pretty good indicator that he is in decline.

also, by now, that whole thing was several years ago. if he was in decline then, it's worse now. and i think it's obvious he's not the man he was 8 years ago, and certainly not the man he was when he was 40. listen to some of the old howard stern interviews. he was always a bigoted asshole, and stupid, but he was much more articulate and aware

[Irish_Dem]

35. Yes exactly. A screening test for dementia is not an IQ test.

Yes of course, the fact he was bragging and misrepresenting the test means he was most likely lying about it.

Yes such a test is just a basic screening tool and rules people in or out for dementia symptoms.
And yes his aides could have lied and embellished facts about the test to get him to take it.

I think it obvious to lay people that Trump is in serious cognitive decline.

[malaise]

11. The CONvicted felon, Smelvis the SF Slobfather is not simply stupid

He is …drumroll…fucking stupid😀

[bdamomma]

12. He is not

well mentally. If he is a threat to himself or others he needs to be committed. He's totally unfit.

[Ocelot II]

13. If you have to keep insisting you're not stupid, you're probably stupid.

Citing a relative who wasn't stupid doesn't help.

[no_hypocrisy]

15. That same uncle suffered from dementia, per TSF's nephew, Fred III.

I wouldn't be using him as a prop.

[getagrip_already]

17. Stupid is as Stupid does....

And he does stupid bigglier than anyone. He is the stupidest, ever.

[surfered]

21. His Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, called Trump "an effing moron."

[musclecar6]

29. Yeah

Only way he got into the University of Pennsylvania was because he knew somebody who worked in the office there. The noted professor at Wharton said he was the “dumbest goddamn student he ever had”. Don’t you just know that he had somebody taking all his tests for him that he paid off.

[Ferrets are Cool]

23. Stupid is as stupid does, you dumb shit.

A dangerous man.

[Omnipresent]

27. I can't believe Stupid is complaining about what most people call him.

Oops! Did i just call him “Stupid”?
Dam, now i just started a bad habit!

[doc03]

30. A genius does have to tell everyone how smart he is. nt

32. "Don't call me stupid." "Oh, right! To call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people!"

Otto West: Don't call me stupid.
Wanda: Oh, right! To call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people! I've known sheep that could outwit you. I've worn dresses with higher IQs. But you think you're an intellectual, don't you, ape?
Otto West: Apes don't read philosophy.
Wanda: Yes they do, Otto. They just don't understand it.
