I know that among Trump’s supporters, there are any number of shibboleths about how Trump is very, very smart. It’s not just a throwaway remark. If he hadn’t devoted his life towards running various businesses, there’s a reasonable chance Trump could have been an accomplished egghead. It certainly runs in the family:

Now, he’s not clairvoyant, and he is human. But don’t take any of the surface stuff at face value*. Some of it is kayfabe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kayfabe, which is what many of the outsiders who deal personally with him can’t wrap their heads around. Professional pols do some kayfabe. Trump does extreme kayfabe, to the point many pols think of him as un-presidential. Has there ever been a president who talked like a pro wrestling emcee? He really cracks me up.
* Note that I think Q is a little overwrought, and neither follow him nor believe any of his assertions.
OK, I’ll say it: Q is a Democrat operative (or operatives, as I’ve heard there may be up to 4 people), and QAnon is a lefty operation to discredit conservatives.
I’m definitely sure he’s a lot smarter than he looks, especially given 2016 and how he really made strides to make America great again after four years of Obama (maybe also the mismanagement of Iraq under Bush, though that’s a gray area). But he’s going to need a LOT more than his intellect if he’s to stop Biden, since I fear that if he gets the nomination, this WILL be our last free election, no hope for a 2024 election. It happened in Cuba, Venezuela, and every Socialist country that elected Socialists, provided they didn’t take over by force beforehand, I fear the same ultimately would happen here in America (it’s nothing short of a miracle that America DIDN’T turn out like France).
