he's smarter than i thought.
I can't believe I'm saying this, but Trump's pathetic GPA at Fordham University doesn't have much relevancy to his life today. Steve Jobs had a 2.5 GPA and he did pretty well for himself. I was an honors student and had a 3.9 GPA when I was in college. Trust me on this, I'm never going to be a United States President or CEO of a major corporation.
As I've said before, Trump sets himself up for criticism. In this case, he claims he has a genius IQ. This is one of the many claims he makes to bolster his ego that cannot be confirmed or disproved. He seems to enjoy saying his detractors are "low IQ" as if he could possibly know what their IQ is.
Whatever his IQ is or his college GPA was, he is severely lacking commonsense and decorum. This speaks to his character, which is relevant to his current position. If you want to involve his mental and intellectual history, these are attributes that are very often permanent, meaning he probably acted then, much as he does now.
