Clapper is a corrupt DUMBASS!!!
Not a "DUMBASS" ,.. just another "Yes Man" that the Emporer surrounds himself with.
No wonder the Emporer gets it all wrong , his data is all skewed
so if you lie down with Clapper , you get a social disease from being skewed !
The headline makes me think of Stevie Nicks - leather and lace.
Clapper is a corrupt DUMBASS!!!

Not necessarily. Consider the fact that your description is a perfect fit for Clapper’s boss. Since we know that is the case it could be that Clapper is actually an Einstein-level genius just following the boss’s orders.
OTOH, maybe he and his boss are, as you note, intellectual equals.
Or as he is fondly known: Clueless Clapper.
