Higher IQ- Trump or Obama?

More thoughts from a genius...

Who freaking cares. IQ does not make you a good or even decent person.
 
Ivanka Trump -140
Michelle Obama-130

Donald Trump -156
Barack Obama --145

Incredible is right. 156? Trump? Even the Electoral College couldn't get him into triple digits.

Just a side note about on-line IQ tests; I took one a few months ago and it said my IQ is higher now than when I was 8 years old- a flat-out impossibility.
 

Well, I.Q. tests simply measure your problem solving skills and ability to process information, not the breadth of your knowledge or your erudition. Someone who sounds like an ignorant simpleton can be a magnificent problem solver. That having been said, just because someone has more raw "intelligence" and is able to compute or think fast on his or her feet does not make them or a more thoughtful, wiser or moral person. Not that I think that Barack Obama was a particularly wise or particularly moral person. Certainly quite intelligent though.

Which is why I despise the idea of using an I.Q. Tests as shorthand for measuring a person's basic worth as an individual.
 


Says a lot about the IQ of someone who takes an on-line IQ test ... :lamo
 

There’s more: “The late William T. Kelley, who taught Trump at the University of Pennsylvania, said, “Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had.” Tony Schwartz, the ghostwriter of “The Art of the Deal,” says Trump had “a stunning level of superficial knowledge and plain ignorance.”

LOL - yeah. Your "source" looks really reputable <sarcasm>. So this is how someone with a high IQ speaks:

?

Thanks for the chuckle my misguided friend!
 

The very stable genius of our times.
 

Again, RaleBulgarian: I.Q. Tests do not test knowledge or the amount of information you know. They test your short-term memory, analytical thinking, mathematical ability and spatial recognition. That is why you can give them to young children who have little knowledge of anything.
 

Wow, that was embarrassing, especially for a genius with a 156 IQ. What's not surprising is Trump was certain his incorrect answer was correct.

I'll give the kids a break for being under pressure on a televised show, but it's not a hard thing to do in your head. I thought I was crazy when everyone agreed 17X6 = 112....
 

Sounds a lot more like the truth. A spoiled brat who rode through life on the wheels attached to the handle of the silver ladle he was born with embedded in his ass.
 
If his IQ were 156 in 1968, which is dubious at best, then his IQ has had a dramatic drop over the past few years/decades. People with that high of an IQ tend to not make the bad choices in life that Trump has made, or make the statements that are obvious and provable lies that Trump has made; they're smarter than that.

It is truly AMAZING how gullible most Cons are. Someone sends them an email, and they swallow whatever it says hook line and sinker. Gullible, and lazy. It's easy for them to check the facts of the info, but no they are too lazy to Google.
 

Yeah, I'm pretty sure someone with a 156 IQ would not get 17 x 6 wrong. I love how Howard exposed their phony Ivy League degrees for what they are. Three Ivy League graduates can't figure out 17 x 6. Rich people have all kinds of advantages that allow them to get into and then graduate from Ivy League schools even when they're total idiots. Rich White affirmative action.
 

i don't disagree with the last part. however, i haven't met many highly intelligent people who speak like Trump. he comes off as someone who hasn't read extensively and who relies on basic language skills and superlatives. that doesn't make him stupid, but an IQ of 156 would be exceptional. he doesn't strike me as genius level intelligence.
