Donald Trump does a lot of bragging about how intelligent and well-educated he is. That is why the tweet he sent out in the early morning hours of July 24, and then quickly deleted, is so sumptuous:
There?
Waist?
Maybe even an Oxford comma?
It took almost an hour before the man with the “best words” caught his elementary school level mistakes.
The message was re-tweeted 1,084 times and liked by 2,939 twitter users; undoubtedly by many Trump supporters who were also oblivious to the errors.
The tweet was deleted and replaced with a more grammatically correct tweet intended to sow divisiveness between Sanders’ supporters and the Clinton campaign. But the internet is unforgiving.
Particularly when the offending party is a candidate for the office of President of the United States who makes claims like this:
Sorry losers and haters, but my I.Q. is one of the highest -and you all know it! Please don't feel so stupid or insecure,it's not your fault
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 9, 2013
And who said in a speech at a campaign rally in Arizona:
“I went to the Wharton School of Business. I’m, like, a really smart person.”
And during a speech in Nevada said:
“I love the poorly educated!”
The Washington Post editorial warning about the dangers of a Trump presidency and the celebration of anti-intellectualism it will surely bring was absolutely spot on:
“…He displays no curiosity, reads no books and appears to believe he needs no advice. In fact, what makes Mr. Trump so unusual is his combination of extreme neediness and unbridled arrogance. He is desperate for affirmation but contemptuous of other views. He also is contemptuous of fact.”
Here is Donald Trump talking about his love of the poorly educated. He is a narcissist after all.
