Reply #23: underestimated, yes, but not for intelligence

[Justitia]

underestimated for his capacity for meanness, vindictiveness and brash bullying w/blinders on to accomplish whatever he wants.

I have grown up here in BushWorld, TX and have seen far too many examples of just how far he (and his family) will go.

Just when you think "nah, he wouldn't do THAT...", I warn you, oh yes he would - and will.

He IS NOT that smart in that he is incredibly shallow and has the attention span of a gnat, therefore he has no capacity for complexity of thought or analysis. You see this manifested all the time in how he speeds through events, barely acknowledging them and is in bed by 8:30 pm each night. Nothing phases him. And he will mow down and steamroll anyone in the way of whatever he wants to do.

He is a perfect reflection of his mother in the meanness department and his father in the shallow department.

Not smart, but unrelentingly rigid, dogmatic, petty and vindictive - a lethal combination.
