My parents still do. They can’t fathom that a billionaire could be anything but a genius to aspire towards.

I’m glad almost no one calls him a genius anymore.

He tried really hard to be called the “real life Tony Stark” and he was successful until, idk, he fired his publicist? Whoever that was did a hell of a job making this moron look smart

I bet that publicist quit the day he called the diver who rescued those kids in Thailand a “pedo guy”. That or he just got really lucky without a publicist for a long time until his opinions started being more important than his image or success.

If he didn’t have an unfiltered public forum, people would probably still think that he is some eccentric genius.

Almost no one in your bubble/perception unfortunately. There are still lots of people that are only aware of him being a POS but still think he’s a genius.

He’s clearly smart. That’s because he has a lot of money. Only smart people have money and the more money you have the more smarter you get.

Don’t worry. Hit the slots and you might get smarter.

Only the same people who call Trump a genius do now.

Just guessing that both geniuses sniff the same stuff. They seem to get same kind of shitfits.
