Political Memes

A quick web check:
Trump: Not in the top 15%, and was awarded no honors. But not necessarily 364 of 366.
Rand Paul: Was certified by the ABO, which lapsed. Then he was certified by the NBO, which he created.
Mike Johnson: Judge Paul Pressler School of Law never opened. Also Pressler was accused of sexual abuse
Lauren Boebert The failed three times part is a Reddit rumor, but she got her GED about a month before becoming a US Congresswoman.
Karoline Leavitt: Entered MAGA politics straight from Saint Anselm. Looks like the conservative blond pipeline.
Jared Kushner: His dad, Charles pledged 2.5 million to Harvard shortly before Jared was accepted. Pro'lly not a coincidence.

Graduated near the bottom of his class? Who's the poor bastard who managed to be worse than him?

I used to watch a lot of fringe science type videos for fun. My theory about this movement is its leaders are people that are bad at science but are charismatic and often very intelligent. They didn't fit into modern education system and didn't get good grades. For society that meant they are stupid and they resent the education system and scientific community for that. When they stumble upon the fringe science people they basically discover huge support network for people like them. The message is "no, you're not stupid, the rest of society is". They convince themselves that the science they don't understand is simply wrong and start creating their own, simple theories that spread in the community. The charismatic ones become new leaders and their theories get followers.

MAGA is pretty much the same. They are all seen by modern society as uneducated (because they are) and morally deficient (because they are). Then they discover this movement that tells them that they are actually superior to everyone else, it's just the evil system that discriminates them. Their leaders are the same, they are charismatic and cunning but definitely are not intellectual types. It's all just a big support group for dumb people where the mediocre rise to the top.

"Look I told you... I can't read, you idiot!"

According to the Behind the Bastards eps on Reinhardt Heydrich, he bluffed his way into the upper echelons of the SS by taking cues from spy thrillers, but didn't actually have any real expertise regarding security or intelligence.

Far-right movements draw the most incompetent but they are popular the wealthy so they get sponsorship. It's the infusions of cold cash that does all the heavy lifting.

1. trump has sued to keep his transcripts buried, and he had to take his first 2 years at a small private school before he transferred to Penn. With one of his professors saying he was the dumbest student he'd ever encountered.

2. They have RAILED AOC for being a bartender working her way through college, yet bobbert was a literal prostitute "escort" which is how she got her way into politics.

Is there a source for this?

All you really proved is that a predatory personality, and a lacks ethics and morality, is more important than intelligence, if you want to be rich.

I heard a bit where Leavitt was a teenager and interviewed/asked Trump questions. She was a total suck up. It was clear then how she got the job.

So, Leavitt is the “smart” one.

An education doesn't make you any less ghoulish, but it sure as shit might help you be better at hiding it.

Not necessarily DEI hires tho, they could also be very good at ass-kissing and yes-saying.
