      Do you really not understand that intelligence is relative and that even different stupid people can be smarter than each other? I’m pretty sure you get that.

        How did you deduce that? Putin isn’t more intelligent than trump, because someone intelligent wouldn’t have attacked the ukraine. I’m saying they’re both idiots.

            Sure, all I’m saying is someone significantly more intelligent wouldn’t have attacked ukraine. People seem to disagree.

              Tbh, I think it’s that you say putins not smarter than trump, instead of not much smarter. That may be hyperbole, but people are going to treat it as though it’s what you believe unless you specify like you do here

                Yeah, fair enough. I believe in the end there’s no way to measure their true intelligence from afar and just based on their actions anyway.
