Trump insisted he would 'rather be a dictator than a dumb person'
Daily Mail via MSN ^ | 4/22/22 | Morgan Phillips

Former President Trump again tossed around the idea that he will run for the presidency in 2024 Thursday, as he said he'd rather be a 'dictator' than a 'dumb person and bragged about 'acing' the aptitude test.

'First they said not too smart,' Trump said, talking about how Democrats and the media described him. 'But then, they made me a dictator instead. Which would you rather be, a dumb person or a dictator? Perhaps a dictator would be better. I don't want to be a dumb person.'

He bemoaned that no one calls for invoking the 25th Amendment against President Biden the way they did him after the Jan. 6 Capitol riot.

'They don't think about it out now - the 25th amendment,' he told the crowd. 'They would mention it anytime I had a great idea, the 25th amendment, there's something wrong with him. That's why I took the aptitude test and I aced it according to Doc Ronny,' referring to White House physician-turned Congressman Ronny Jackson.

Trump added: That's a test that even some geniuses in that room will not do that well on. I will tell ya, it's not that easy a test.'

He needs to stop talking about the test. It doesn't mean what he thinks it means.

The media still frames Trump comments in the worst possible way. Trump was NOT saying he seriously wanted to be a dictator. President Biden and his band of miscreants are far, far more dictatorial than Trump ever was. Trump will never get a fair break from the MSM, so he should just continue doing and saying whatever he wants. He isn’t ever going to be a polished politician, AKA a liar.

Exactly, the test for senility certainly wouldn’t be described as an “aptitude test” lol.

Obviously. But he seems to think that the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test is some sort of IQ test and it isn't. Anyone with normal cognitive skills should pass the test without any problems, and if Trump aced it then that's no great achievement.

The Heritage Foundation meeting is ongoing and Trump was invited to deliver the keynote.

Loose cannon. Stupidest political comment since he called Putin “genus”

His narcissistic ego is a gift to the Democrats. Another 100 thousand will vote democratic because of this.

The man is his own worse enemy. But he cant wise up. His ego wont let him.

Some should tell Trump that “Sometimes you really don’t need to get down in the pig sty and wrestle with all the pigs!”

Substantively there is nothing wrong with his comment.

However, he could handle his comments much better.

The problem is, every time we have a republican candidate, people forget how badly they treated every single republican candidate and president.

We may not like Romney, but he was a total straight arrow.

You still run into liberals who tell you about his “binders full of women” or that he was a dog abuser.

They will hate on every single republican and they will give every Democrat pig a blue ribbon.

This has always been the one area Trump feels insecure about, his level of intelligence and academic knowledge. I supported him from almost the beginning, but it certainly wasn’t because I thought him particularly intelligent, he’s average at best, but he has an abundance of commonsense which in many was is more important. Reagan himself was no genius, but was a great President. Really commonsense, decent morals, that’s enough to get the job done. Trump needs to just quit worrying about trying to prove himself some top tier thinker and just stick to the issues.

How long will it be before everyone realizes the msm routinely takes trump out of context.

Besides, who gives a crap as long as president he delivers good results?

President knows everything.   He knows he did fine on the test and President Biden would not even think to wipe himself with it.

And you are pretty lame for trying to find fault with President Trump's comments.

That kind of response leaves him open to ridicule!
He needs to contrast his responsible sanity vs Biden’s dementia and irresponsible government!

That response didn’t do it!

Generally considered to be one of the most prestigious business schools in the world, the Wharton School is the world's oldest collegiate business school, having been established in 1881 through a donation from Joseph Wharton.[5]
President Trump does not in the least feel insecure about his level of intelligence and academic knowledge.

“President Trump does not in the least feel insecure about his level of intelligence and academic knowledge.”

The way in which he responds to those questioning his intelligence says otherwise, as in this instance. If he was truly secure he would have just brushed off this line of questioning as bs, but instead he has to always come up with a rejoinder ‘proving’ him to be a borderline genius. The msm knows they can get a rise out of him with this stuff, but Trump keeps falling for it. And yes I’m aware he holds a degree from Wharton, I just don’t put much stock in the paper he holds. It’s rather easy to surmise how intelligent or educated someone is by the manner in which they talk and what they say. And my impression of him is that he’s of average intelligence at best. When it comes to politicians especially, intelligence doesn’t always translate into them being a good politician, and isn’t an issue I’m concerned about. Intelligent people can do great evil too, so by itself it doesn’t hold a high value for me when deciding who to vote for.
