to be completely fair, I am going to go with We don't really know. Must successful people who actually are stupid make it a big point not only not to flaunt their stupidity, but to keep it as quiet as possible, often employing other people to help sharpen the image. Trump, on the other hand, blares his stupidity all over the world every day. He makes no attempt to keep it on the down low or to get people to help him look like has a clue. So is it possible that there has been a stupider President? Possible. But I guess you have to figure if the other possible stupid Presidents were at least smart enough, or willing enough to listen to advice, to make an effort to look like they had a working brain, they were at least smarter than Trump, who obviously is not.

So yes, Trump is the stupidest President. See, I tried to be fair and balanced, but the conclusion was the same.
