I'm not sure that's true. A quick search he has called DiNero and Jennifer Rubin low iq. He has pretty much called everyone dumb. It's one of his go to insults. Come, Clapper, etc etc.

We're really giving this dude the benefit of the doubt? Google 'trump low iq' and it's all Maxine Waters stuff. He calls a black interviewer and black interviewee dumb. He's called don lemon the dumbest man on television multiple times. You're right in that he also saves dumb for a lot of women. So he's sexist too!

He just calls everyone dumb. He calls his own staff dumb. It's his go to insult. He is a racist but not because of this.

Deniro aside he typically saves dumb for black people and women. Connect the dots, man.

Yes, saying two black people are dumb in and of itself is not always racist. Coming from a person with a long line of racist words and actions, it's racist.

It's just not true.

He has called basically everyone dumb. You ignored me mentioning Comey and Clapper too.

His tweets this morning on tariffs are literally 100% not true. He does not understand international trade.

The GOP is a disgrace.

I have a friend who has been a citizen for approximately 20 years. He asked me if presidents have ever done these rally things so frequently. I explained that there are plenty of examples we could come up with of presidents being on the stump, but it was pretty hard to defend to Rally's in one week much less a third. We then had to have a laugh because in theory these rallies are supposed to be supporting candidates, but they're always mostly about Donald.

Solid tweet from Don this morning saying the meeting was to get dirt on Hillary. Is this the first time he admitted it wasn’t about adoptions?

@realDonaldTrump
15m15 minutes ago
Fake News reporting, a complete fabrication, that I am concerned about the meeting my wonderful son, Donald, had in Trump Tower. This was a meeting to get information on an opponent, totally legal and done all the time in politics - and it went nowhere. I did not know about it!

Didn't Don Jr. testify, under oath, before a Congressional Committee that the meeting was to discuss the Magnitsky Act? Wasn't that the Administration's position, like, forever? And now the president just casually mentions that the meeting was to obtain op-research!?!?!? Isn't lying to Congress a crime? Lock HIM Up??

Don’t think it was under oath. That said, if he lied, it’s obstruction.

Trump and his family are cooked. Walls are closing in on obstruction.

CNN media reporter Brian Stelter on Sunday aired a clip of a C-SPAN caller threatening to shoot him and fellow CNN anchor Don Lemon.

I love all the versions of alternate facts out there now, people are misspeaking, we didn't know all the facts... Which is a patented blatant lie because the facts actually haven't changed its just now that the president has stuck his foot up his ass and told the truth... Etc

Cal you are right that he called a lot of white people dumb. It seems he now uses it mostly for black people (since election). I guess that's more what I was feeling/seeing but didn't say it outright. He's fully embraced the racism that's propelled him to the presidency.
