Are we underestimating Trump's intellect? [View all]

[True Dough]

I'm perplexed. Every time I hear him speak, I immediately think "Dolt!" His limited lexicon and repetition of words and phrases makes me want to gag, let alone the oppressive message that accompanies it. He just doesn't seem bright at all.

Yet he seized upon slogans ("Drain the swamp" and "Make America Great Again" ) that resonated with enough voters to get him into office.

He effectively uses his Twitter account to create controversy that distracts from his nefarious political agenda.

He has been successfully dismantling the Republican influence within the White House to create his own fiefdom.

And, although he started out with a YUGE loan from his daddy and experienced a few bankruptcies, he managed to build a business empire -- not nearly as successful as he'd have us believe, but the Trump name adorns buildings all over the world.

So, are we not giving Dolt 45 enough credit or is he prospering in spite of himself???
