Trump’s Personality and IQ Evaluated by Psychotherapist

Trump’s Personality and IQ Evaluatied by Psychotherapist by Samuel Orrin Sewell - bestselfusa@gmail.com

Trump may be a genius, but personality is more important.

The most well-known high IQ society is Mensa. To join Mensa one must score in the top 2% of a standardized IQ test. That really isn’t all that outstanding. One out of 50 people have IQs high enough to join Mensa.

Numerical IQ scores are not an accurate indicator of intelligence. For instance a score of 72 on the U.S. Navy GCT test is about equal to score of 150 on the WAIS (Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale.) Percentile IQ scores are a more informative measurement.

There are 100 million American men, let alone foreign, distressed that at 70 they will be unable to do 60% of what DJT has done in 18mos, physically AND mentally.

Half of them couldn’t do it at age 45. Quite intimidating.

I was going to join MENSA but I made the mistake of attending a meeting.

This is true!

He was right when everyone said he was wrong.

Whenever I see that, I just think WTF is wrong with this guy? Doesn’t he perchance have something better to do, like protect the nation? January 20th can’t come soon enough!

Given the usual requirements for admission to a top school like Wharton, I estimate that Mr. Trump has an IQ well into the 150 range.

So he doesn't KNOW what Trumps SAT score is, just assumes it was about 1500. I am skeptical of this methodology.

"...Obamy was 102..."

Never seen/heard that before. Seems like a too specific (high resolution) rating. Where did that come from? Has it been adjusted for Drug Use?

He’s clearly no dummy, but what appears to have really distinguished Trump is empathy, not the cloying, superior “you poor thing” variety. He appears to actively seek to understand and feel what others feel, and is very good at it, to the benefit of those he supports and to the detriment of those who oppose him. He gets it, or is going to. That makes him lethal on the warpath.

Self-absorbed, self-congratulatory lot for the most part, aren’t they?

Don’t know where I read it. Probably fake news, I would figure it was in the low 80’s.

IQ doesn’t explain special people like Trump. In my field that IQ range is the norm and in general, we couldn’t lead a company of Marines into a brothel. There is something more than IQ at play.

I guess like everything else we don’t know if the psychotherapist did or did not personally evaluate Trump. I’m betting not.

Heck, my IQ qualifys me for MENSA membership but I declined using the Groucho Marx excuse that,”I wouldn’t belong to any club that would have me for a member.”

Please read the article. It is not a diagnosis, just a comparison of DJT’s personality traits against key traits documented by a rather novel psychotherapist who studied exceptional people to see what was right about them rather than the failings and weaknesses of those who are below normal. Most psychology studies only address pathology and they may not even know what a mentally and emotionally healthy person is.
