He knows these winners have a much higher IQ than him while he can only twiddle his jacket buttons.

You'd think with his "America Firstism" he'd be scrambling to proclaim American greatness.

Could also be a protest of them giving prior prizes to Al Gore and Barack Obama. I know at least one person who's lost all respect for the Nobel Prize over recognition of climate change.

Haven't you heard? Science and intelligence aren't what makes America great, nor is international recognition of science and intelligence.

What makes America great is greed and denial of facts. Well, it may not make America great, but it'll make a few people a lot of money, and that makes the facts go away.

That's where my mind went...everyone is calling The Don a blustering idiot in some way, shape or form, but I would defer to say that he's smart enough to stay away from smart people when possible. Don't want anyone drawing comparisons in a contest he can't win.

I've often joked privately with other trainers that, while infrequently, trying to teach some students is like having a conversation with a mental pygmy. This would definitely be the case if the prize winners tried to converse with him! LOL

Pretty sure someone was explaining to herr dumpf what these people won the Nobel Prize for and he started to get dizzy from all the real information they were giving him, and he couldn't handle it.

Why should he meet with people who don't want to meet him? That seems burdensome on all.
