re: #232 HappyWarrior

I really think he talked before he thought a lot. I’m not saying W is smart but I think some of it was more like Biden than we may think. I do think one thing is for sure. W had no business being President and he wouldn’t have been President if his father who certainly was a smart guy (honestly the most intelligent Republican standard bearer since Nixon) but I don’t see him as absurdly stupid the way Trump is.

To me, the biggest difference between W and Trump is W knew he wasn’t the brightest bulb in the box and embraced the idea of Rove being “Bush’s Brain.” Trump is an intellectually incurious narcissist who thinks he knows every thing there is worth knowing.
