No offense taken. I know you detest Trump. I really don’t care about the Nobel prize. If there was any prestige associated with it, it evaporated when it was awarded to Obama.
I agree with most of your first three points.
Trump is inarticulate but a long ways from being a dunce. I don’t put much credence into measuring IQ’s but I’ve seen reports his would put him in the top .01%. Obama was articulate. He did not strike me as all that smart. Arrogance can take people a long ways though.
