I found a article telling he himself reported that his IQ was 156 which would make him the second most intelligent president of all time.

Have a look and let me know if it's true or just another story that was made up.

Are we shooting for honesty here? Hope not because I voted for option #1.

I voted first, and now I'm trying to grasp what having a negative IQ would entail...

Working backwards to justify my answer.

I suppose IQs can go negative. I mean, if the price of oil can go negative, then why not?
Not really sure how IQs can go negative... But for some reason i just know Trump's IQ is below 0 haha...

I think Trump is a very smart person. The way he knows how to organize a business, the way he competently conducts political activities in the role of the US president. Not everyone can do it just as well.

Do any of you have a suggestion for someone who would be a better president than Trump, who is also realistically going to be someone you can vote for?

This is just sad.

Ordinary people who are not involved in politics (like we are) cannot know what Trump is actually doing. It seems strange to me that the media criticize him periodically. I don't think that a stupid person can become president.

i suppose stupid can be relative, but is sure looks like an unqualified person (at the least) can become president from where im sitting.

We know that Donald Trump is the oldest president of America. He is now 73 years old. With age, the function of the human brain decreases. This is called cerebral atropy.



When a person reaches the age of 75, his brain function decreases by 15% compared to what when he was 25 years old.
Source: Wikipedia

This is the formula for calculating IQ.
Mental Age / Chronological age multiplied by 100 = IQ


As Donald Trump's chronological age increases, so does his mental age decreasing accordingly.

Now we will calculate Trump's IQ...
Chronological age= 73
Mental Age= 19

IQ=(19/73)multiplied by 100
    =26%

And that's my vote.

Is it possible that his IQ level is high and his brains works very fast that his mouth can't keep up?
My impression is that he has an intuitive understanding of how to persuade people. Perfect for salesmanship and politics.
He's not a politician for starters that's why he was elected as President at first place and about his salesmanship rest of the world calls it bullying.

Is it possible that his IQ level is high and his brains works very fast that his mouth can't keep up?

Hey.  I think that I tend to be a fairly charitable person, and I am willing to give benefit of the doubt.

On the other hand, most of us probably get some ideas about when we see a conman, and we have to come to a conclusion in a reasonable amount of time.. like maybe give them a few chances before we come to judgement.

Trump has truly proven himself, even while I understand that some people have concluded that he walks on water and that he can do no wrong, but I get the sense that some people just get pleasure in hearing what they want to hear.

I will admit that I will not necessarily sit through whole presentations with people that I know that are lying, so sometimes if there might happen to be some value in a 20 to 30 minute presentation that he might give, then someone might need to point that out to me, because I feel that there is not enough hours in the day and to riddle my own brain with lies and misinformation... it is not good for your brain or developing and maintaining your own critical thinking skills.

I am not going to berate anyone who wants to give him the benefit of the doubt, but frequently, I will find that if I engage with anyone who is really attempting to be intellectually honest, there is hardly anyone who really believes that he is NOT a con man.  Many people that support him so enthusiastically frequently are actually considering him to have utilitarian value in terms of their beliefs that his behaviors is actually carrying out their personal/ideological agenda in one way or various ways.

Hahahaha! great answer!

I don't think trump is a total idiot, i mean, he is not the smartest guy, but to be good at business isn't just about luck, you need some IQ for that. This crisis is hard for any president, people will die and there is not much they can do about it. But a smart guy would make fewer people die and not have those big numbers.

I have problems marking below 76 in the actual poll because Trump is truly not stupid, but he is a narcissistic bully who seems to have never had to account in any meaningful ways for his thug behaviors and lies.  He actually gets rewarded for such behaviors.

Yeah. Maybe he was beat up as a child, but I really doubt it.  He had likely always been just a spoiled brat who carried his behaviors into various other realms.

Regarding the more recent behaviors in terms of dealing with the virus, it may be a bit difficult to know whether he is being purposeful in his incompetence or really just innocently incompetent, and I do understand the old expression that we should never attribute malice to that which can be explained by incompetence (apparently it is called Hanlon's razor), but it is seeming that Trumps track record is filled with so much malice that his current behaviors are likely either to be malice or certain powers that be might be allowing or facilitating the malice aspects of Trumps already existing inclinations.

Probably these ongoing behaviors will continue to work to Trump's advantage because he is fairly good at keeping himself in the spotlight whether the attention facilitates getting positive things done, such as getting the economy back in order or getting some meaningful path forward in regards to the virus or otherwise... some of the seeming purposeful destruction of certain aspects of society while making less fortunate people bear the greatest brunt of his attention seeking bumblings.

Don't get me wrong.  I think that he is somewhat hilarious as a comic or someone who does not have power to wield, but in this case, his comedy has lots of impacts that seem to be more damaging than they are helpful, even though lots of people who want various aspects of society to be destroyed are liking these moves towards Armageddon.. even though they might not admit it out loud.

The problem is always when people are stupid enough to think they are smart, when patently they are not.

There is an inability in the human mind to conceive what it would actually be like to be smarter.  Therefore it is easy for anyone to believe they are as smart as it is conceivably possible to be. 

This becomes dangerous when insecurity or narcissism means someone shuts off doubt and humility and is somehow able to convince people to give them some responsibility.  In Trump's case "I am wealthy and therefore successful* - and I am on TV" seems to have been what worked.

The Donald's IQ...  Less than his shoe size? 

OK, realistically - in the 70s if he took a test.  I doubt he is that mentally functional to get anything higher.

*this is doubtful, he was left a lot of money by his father and has a string of bankruptcies and massive debts.
And again, go ahead and name someone better.

Anyone who has accomplished something has failed on the way there. This is normal, and unavoidable. He has also failed less than the average in his business. It is deeply troubling that bitcoiners, of all people, have trouble with this concept.

Incidentally what do you estimate that Bidens IQ is? Just out of kuriosity.

It is definetly possible that Trump tries to look as stupid as possible to underestimate him.

I'd argue against that.

You have to play dumb - sure - to reach Trump's status.
But that doesn't make him smart.

In fact, it is exactly that.
He can only play dumb, and leave open the possibility that he is an underestimated smart guy, but in reality he is just average smart to see his best interest.
At least that's what he thinks, I suppose.

Btw, the best description imo would be: "morally ruthless", aka "businessman for president".

i read somewhere that trumps strategy is to DDOS the truth by putting out so many lies you cant even understand them anymore.. bury the truth in idiocy to hide it.

except hes to stupid to think of such a strategy. soooo... his being a straight up moron is the simplistic explanation.

i would LOVE to see his school transcripts. an average C- tops. and thats being generous.

I remember when I criticized him for advocating the murder of muslim children and he called me an NPC. Frankly any time he posts that's all I think about.

Obvious bias is obvious. (or just a basic lack of knowledge of how iq works but im feeling generous). But aside from that, who cares. Intelligence is far more than IQ. IQ is just a measure of how fast the brain works, kind of like a computer processor. It says nothing about HOW you use your brain, what programs are running.

People have different specialties and different ways of approaching the same ends. Bottom line in all this, is he doing a decent job? Appears to be the case. Better than any of the alternatives. Let it go.

Well to be honest he really acts and talks rediculously at times which is not expected from a person of his stature and post.
Recently, during all this corona controlling measures he has called out to use different things and medicines publicly which he does not have much info about and simply are not good for corona treatment rather they can be life threatening for patients. Have you heard his remark about injecting disinfectant to corona patients, i do not know what he is thinking? I think he is either too naive or just simply incompetent.

All those african countries having average IQs in the sub-80 range really scares me. I wonder how they ended up like that.

Also I think I found the reason why most of our stuff is made in China.
They started like that. It's our ancestors that left the asshole of the world tens of thousands of years ago that evolved bigger and better brains.

All due to environmental pressure too. In africa it's hot year round, there is always food and always lions to run away from. It gives them a very rabbity mindset.

Up north, in the frozen wastes where Vulgaris Magistralix roams, we have winters. Gotta stockpile firewood and food and a higher degree of cooperation in general is required to survive. Hence we developed higher IQ and higher social trust.

It's all biology. Nobody is at fault. But it is a fact that there are different human races, and that they are very different.

I think realistically he's either about or just under average, which is by definition 100. He's a product of wealth and privilege so his education, even if it didn't take too well, wasn't neglected. He didn't grow up malnourished with no access to schools. He hasn't lived with or experienced other cultures outside of the elite 1%, very insular isolated culturally. I think his biggest flaw is an unwillingness to venture outside of his bubble. He's a prime example of what happens when drug dealers use their own supply too long. Combined with obvious mental illness, I'm guessing Narcissistic Personality Disorder. I'm more worried about the IQ of the people that voted him into office.
Sam Vaknin thinks he is narcissistic. Maybe he is. I'll take it, if the means to his own grandiosity is the greatest presidency in a long time.

IQ scores below 60 are practically non-existent, 60-69 classifies you as retarded, 70-79 is impaired thinking, 80-89 is not bright but you can do normal social activities yourself without much trouble. 90-109 is average population, 110-119 is smart, 120-129 is genius, and 130+ is a brilliant cognitive thinking. So I'd say somewhere close to 70.

Now I'm curious what my IQ score is, but an accurate test costs a little money. That could be one more thing bitcoin could buy in the future.
