Donald Trump Thinks Rick Perry Should Take ‘IQ Test’ Before Presidential Debate
The Wrap ^ | July 17, 2015 | Jordan Chariton

Another day, another Donald Trump doozie.

The presidential candidate, who’s soared to No. 1 among Republican presidential candidates in the latest Fox News poll, attacked opponent Rick Perry’s intelligence on Twitter Thursday.

“.@GovernorPerry just gave a pollster quote on me. He doesn’t understand what the word demagoguery means,” Trump tweeted.

He followed up with a proposal: “.@GovernorPerry failed on the border. He should be forced to take an IQ test before being allowed to enter the GOP debate.”

Trump’s tirade against the former Texas governor came after Perry tweeted: .@realDonaldTrump-ism not conservatism but a toxic mix of demagoguery and nonsense.”

Trump also tweeted his ire at Senator John McCain, who was the Republican nominee for president in 2008.

“The thousands of people that showed up for me in Phoenix were amazing Americans. @SenJohnMcCain called them “crazies” — must apologize!” he tweeted.

Trump then insulted McCain’s intelligence: “.@SenJohnMcCain should be defeated in the primaries. Graduated last in his class at Annapolis — dummy!”

Ditto. Let's face facts: Reagan was a Democrat at one point. The Donald isn't perfect, but uh, he sure is saying what needs said.

I really think the candidates should really talk about the democrat opposition. Instead of beating each other up why not the opposing party?

Come on Don, us Texans never required one to elect him a zillion times.

We even bought the coyote story.

“Donald Trump is cheapening public discourse”, said the Whore of Babylon in a Meet the Press panel discussion.

In the case of McCain, Trump is beating up the opposing party.

Agreed. And having differences with the other candidates is ok, but this is unnecessary.

It also reinforces the liberal stereotypes of Republicans, i.e., Dan Quayle is dumb, Bush is dumb, Sarah Palin is dumb, etc.

I don’t think they can detect IQs below the intelligence of lint.

I think they should both take IQ- tests. Trump is none to bright. I can’t imagine a reality TV idiot is above 100.

For a long time I have promoted the idea of a “Presidential Candidate Qualifying Exam” or PCQE.

It would include knowledge of the Constitution, geography, history, mathematics, economics, etc.
Yeah I know, if the questions come from professors at Diversity University our candidates would never qualify.

B0 Stevedunhambarrysoetorobathhousebarryhusseinsoebarkah would have been disqualified with the following line of questioning:
What is your favorite baseball team?
Chicago White Sox
Name your favorite Sox player of all time.
Um, um ah, um, d’oh, um, ah...
Name one player on the current White Sox roster.
Dum, ah, um, um um ah...

Rick Perry failed at the border. Now he is critical of me. He needs a new pair of glasses to see the crimes committed by illegal immigrants.

The Donald is worth having in the race for the entertainment value alone!

I love this guy. He is what we need right now. Folks are tired of PC opression, shutting down speech. This goes deep, all the way through the millenial kids.

Most of them are mired in the BS, afraid to speak up. Especially the white males.

Now there is a connection between the Campus sex Police Pogrom, the PP scandal and the white house.

Nucatola is currently employed at Sexual Health Innovations, founded by former Obama White House staffer Jessica Ladd. Senior Obama administration officials sit on the board of the abortion activist group, including Praveen Basaviah of the President’s Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS and Kyle Bernstein of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The IRS-approved 501(c)3 tech nonprofit is a major Obama administration contractor.

The group works on issues including “abortion access,” according to its website. But the group’s biggest project right now is Callisto, an online “third-party sexual assault reporting system” for girls on college campuses. The property in development counts Google as its investor.
