Asked and Answered: Trump Wonders How He Could be This Stupid

  • 8 Comments
  • by: Colorado Pols

There is a remarkable video clip making the rounds on social media today of President Trump asking and answering the question that has been on every American’s mind for months: How could you be THIS STUPID and still end up as President of the United States?

Here’s President Trump in his own words on Wednesday, speaking in the Oval Office about his on/off/on/off tariff “policies”:

In case you can’t view or hear the video, here’s what Trump said:

TRUMP: “Maybe corrupt? I don’t know. I don’t know how you could be that stupid?

How do you get to be President when you’re stupid?”

Indeed.

  1. There’s Stupid, then there’s Trump-Stupid

    • Farmers react: The loss of China as an export market will deal a particularly hard economic blow to agricultural workers in many red states, hitting many of the voters who helped Mr. Trump win the presidential election. “If this lasts long term, we’re going to have a significant number of farmers going out of business,” said Caleb Ragland, a Kentucky farmer who is president of the American Soybean Association.

  2. Trump's comment: How do you get to be President when you’re stupid? — 

    could be the setup for a variation on the old inquiry about getting to Carnegie Hall — "Practice, practice, practice."

    the sadder truth — it probably comes closer to the apocryphal story of an exchange between a supporter and Gov. Adlai Stevenson:

    "Governor, you have the vote of every thinking person!" during one of his presidential campaigns.

    That's not enough, madam; we need a majority!

    Trump in 2024 got to majorities in the primaries, at the Republican convention, and in the November general election.

  3. “How do you get to be President when you’re stupid?”

    Ummmmmmmmm . . . 

    Step 1.  Be stupid.

    Step 2.  Run for office in the Party that seeks out and promotes stupid.
