Well...he didn't initially understand the ramifications of nuclear fallout without needing to be told in no uncertain terms, he's given away key information to foreign diplomats in order to [i]brag[/i] which has put lives in danger (the agent in question possibly died), he didn't know the uses of uranium, he didn't know that he wasn't the largest republican lead in a race since Reagan, he thinks coal power is clean, he's bankrupted a casino, he needs 1 page paper reports with his name mentioned often in order for him to continue to pay attention, and these are all without me needing to look up things I might have forgotten.

A lot of what you're listing sounds subjective. What leads you to say he didn't understand nuclear fallout? What says he didn't know the uses of uranium? How do you assess his attention span?

Mind -- I'm not intending to present an argument that Trump is particularly smart (I probably could, but I'm not inclined). All I'm saying is, I'm hearing a feedback loop here, where actions are pre-judged to fit a conclusion, and then used as supporting evidence for that conclusion. That's not critical thinking, is all I'm saying.
