Heh, c'mon. Trump Was smart enough to catch, exploit and manipulate the emotional needs and desires of his base. He has proven
to be smart enough to be seen by enough voters to be a populist while in fact he is not. Trump was smart enough to win the presidency.
Though you know i see him as a man of no worth i don't think portraying him solely as an absolute fool is a particularly positive tactic to employ toward beating him.
It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
