You will like this story YD. When I was working on my PhD, one of the other PhD students
was fixated on serial killers. His dissertation was on this subject and in every class he told stories or asked questions related to the serial killers. He had personally met or corresponded with every living serial killer. None of the females students would sit near this guy but I admit
after a couple of years of this stuff I got a bit interested. I now also work online on cold cases and DNA investigations.
Yes people do not understand the assessment of human intelligence is quite complex and there are many types of intelligence. In a formal IQ testing there are many subtests as we measure many types of verbal and nonverbal IQ. There is no perfect brain. I myself am quite smart in a few areas and totally clueless in other areas.
Yes. Trump is not an educated nor intellectually curious person. He is mentally ill and only interested in topics that feed his narcissism and sociopathy. But he has an animal cunning, a street smarts. It is patently absurd to say that a man who has become the most powerful man in the world and will be the richest one soon is stupid.
