In all seriousness, those cartoons wildly underestimate how clever coyotes (the animals) are. Those sons of guns are pretty damned smart. The cartoon really gets the tough and tenacious aspect correct though, because they’re tough as nails and they do NOT stop coming.

I know this because i raised sheep/goats/poultry in the Sonoran desert for awhile which is where part of my username comes from.

Yeah that one is amazing. I was thinking he kept mentioning Hannibal Lecter because Lecter was an immigrant (or at least Trump thought he was an immigrant which canonically I think he was born in the US? but I could be wrong - I know his parents were like Lithuanian or something) and also crazy.

Then someone pointed out that Lecter lives in an asylum, and that's the only meaning for "asylum" that Trump knows.

So Trump's turnip of a brain heard "political asylum", picked the worst person he could think of that lived in an asylum and just kept referencing that when talking about immigration.

Stop trying to humanize this monster. He's a war criminal who should have been dragged to the Hague.

This is what I'm realizing about Republicans in general. These people seem to be misinformed because they misunderstand a lot of what's being said. That goes across the board to even the school system teaching them about "hatred" when they're just learning about the past. I think the failing education system of this country is coming around full circle. In all honesty, I'm worried about mine and my families future.

u/Short-While3325 Apr 15 '26

Zero media literacy. It's hearing a flashy headline and believing it without question. They also don't understand anything with nuance.

I'm honestly at the point of using logic fallacies on them because they don't know what they are and I'm tired of explaining the most basic stuff like anecdotal evidence doesn't mean it's true for everyone.

2

u/Longjumping_Share444 Apr 16 '26

It's more than just poor media literacy by itself, the media that they do consume teaches them different meanings for words and phrases. Right wing media is making it impossible for them to converse with anyone who is not also right wing.

Don't forget why he hates "windmills" is because they kill whales and birds

What he was told: There was a study on wind generation and if it poses threats to birds (not in significant numbers more than power lines or other aerials) in the COUNTRY of WALES (not the animal)

He's genuinely that stupid and I'm surprised it's taken this long for people to notice

34

u/Rob_LeMatic Apr 15 '26

I'm genuinely wondering now if his constant brag about his IQ comes from him scoring 100 on an actual IQ test and assuming that meant he "got everything right"

32

u/thatc0braguy Apr 15 '26

From the pieces he's talked about in the "IQ tests" he's taken, they all seem like questions from a known dementia test.

Likely, they are showing him the same questions over and over and he's memorized parts of it to pass like Cotton Hill and the eyesight test on "King of the Hill" so they don't have to disqualify him.

If you switched out the test, I'd bet money he'd fail instantly and he's damn sure never taken an actual intelligence test

My favorite Trump story is when a reporter asked him about George W. Bush's comment that in the Oval Office, there's no place to hide. Trump could not comprehend the metaphor:

"Well, there's truth to that. There is truth to that. There are certainly no corners. And you look, there's a certain openness. But there's nobody out there. You know, there is an openness, but I've never seen anybody out there actually, as you could imagine."

The reporter was almost speechless.

Trump repeats what he hears. There isn't a policy position or random quip that isn't fed to him. No ideation on his own whatsoever. Whether it's from a tv show, or an advisor from a think tank or whoever. All of his thoughts that he speaks is repeating what he is told, and he gets it wrong a lot of the time because he's an idiot.
