Given his achievements, I would guess that Trump would pull 140 or higher on Stanford-Binnet IQ tests. That's not extremely unusual though.
You seem to have a warped view of the IQ scale...
Less than 0.5% of people have an IQ of 140+... Trump is most definitely not in the top 0.5% smartest people on the planet... not a chance
...
A quick few pokes at my calculator reveals about 35,000,000 people. I call that a lot and 'not extremely unusual'.
I suspect that well over half of the people I've worked with over the last decade have been in this group. That being said, many of them are remarkably inept in a lot of ways. Probably due to the education system. Most of them have had graduate degrees so there was plenty of opportunity to fuck up their native potential.
I sure got a lot smarter when I started unlearning what schools tough me, with a few notable exceptions. Every election cycle, this nonsense starts. Gore was "really smart." Bush was "dumb as rocks." Obama was "smart as a whip."
No, Gore isn't very smart.
No, Obama isn't "smart as a whip."
No, Bush wasn't "dumb as rocks."
These are all lies by desperate mousehives.

Here is what we also know from New Yorker Magazine and UPI in articles from January of 2004.
-- Bush's SAT scores are higher than Bill Bradley's, Paul Wellstone's, and John Kerry's.
-- Bush scored a 1206 on his SAT, 566 of 800 on verbal and 640 of 800 on math. [Since the SAT's scale has since been "recentered," Bush's score is more like a 1300 today.]
-- Bush's verbal score would place him between the 84th and 92nd percentile of college-bound students, or the 93rd to 97th percentile of ALL high-school seniors taking the exams, the percentile usually used.
-- His math score would also place him between the 84th and 92nd percentile of college-bound students, or the 94th to 98th percentile of ALL high-school seniors taking the exams, the percentile usually used.
-- Using one method to extract IQ's from these SAT scores, Bush's IQ would be somewhere between 124 and 137. Hardly a dunce, that's at least in the top six percent of Americans.
-- We all hear of Bush's supposed college mediocrity, but in reality his "worst" courses were two C-minus scores. Accounting for grade inflation, Bush's worst grades are around today's B-minuses.
Recentered SAT: 1300 IQ: 124-137 Stupid: Definately not.
