Christopher Langan, the Smartest Man in the World, Compares Donald Trump’s IQ
(Excerpt) Read more at rumble.com ...
Has every living person been ‘tested’?
As I recall, Elaine Benes in Seinfeld had quite a high IQ.
well, i haven’t taken the test yet-
But, since the average Harvard professor believes there was no cheating in the 2020 election, is this actually a compliment?
Or liar/denier. I would add there was obvious cheating in 2024 as well.
“””He said Trump’s IQ is equal to that of the average Harvard professor.””
I would consider that an insult.
I am just a common man, construction trades for life. I tested out at 126 when I was 48. Took a test when my daughter was pondering colleges. What is Trumps? 145-160?
Yeah. I wish he’d said something about the average IQ of journalists.
“A dingo ate your baby”.
Professors don’t need to be brilliant, they just need to know their field and be willing to put in the work.
Think of the Thomas Edison quote about genius being 99 percent perspiration and 1 percent inspiration.
Professors may be bright, they may not be. But they all know how to play the academic game.
How smart can he be if he hasn’t figured out that being overweight and smoking are bad lifestyle choices?
Not sure why he was trying to insult Trump there....
True, they aren’t. But he may have already determined its not his lifestyle choices that will kill him. Hes probably way smarter than you on that and already figured out his ending.
This guy has some very intriguing thoughts....and then you find he’s actually pretty racist. He hates the Joooooos.
Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not: nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not: the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.
Calvin Coolidge
I could have told him that.
I never took anything called an IQ test. I took the PSAT, SAT, GRE. As far as I can tell, these tests are intended to measure verbal and mathematical aptitude. So, if you become a math major and actually learn advanced mathematics, that counts for nothing. These tests do not test for knowledge, just aptitude. So, I consider them to be of very limited use.
I know someone who scored 800 in both math and verbal in the SAT. He went on to Harvard and graduated. His career was unexceptional.
Some snot on X said that Elon was not that smart. I replied: if so, he must have worked hard.
I remember when Americans gave credit for hard work. Lazy liberals seem to have put the emphasis on credentials and imagined IQs.
Very true.
