The Trump II cabinet so far: Tulsi Gabbard, RFK, Jr. and Elon Musk.
Very telling that the Trump thinks Elon is anything approaching intelligent
Well that’s fuckin frightening.
Oh please he doesn’t cherish geniuses. He reprimands them and has his aides fire them after they tell him that what he wants to do is fucking idiotic and against the law and then does it anyways.
He is completely against geniuses. And elon is no genius. He’s just a rich dumbass that got lucky on a few investments.
If Trump wins, Musk will effectively have purchased a seat in the federal government. How democratic.
Just like trump’s last cabinet where he appointed people who donated large amounts of money to him.
Pretty sure every president does that. Aren’t ambassador jobs to allied foreign governments essentially gifts to friends or donors? Of course were talking about cabinet positions but it seems to me cabinets positions usually go to who kissed the most ass instead of who’s most qualified. When’s the last time secretary of education went to some who has actually taught a class?
This is flagrant corruption, or nepotism, or both, right?
Buying tech is not a genius move by itself
He’s shaping up to form a truly unique cabinet…
- RFK Jr - Secretary of Brain Worms
- Tulsi Gabbard - Secretary of Bullshit
- Elon Musk - Secretary of Arrogance and Hubris
- Kari Lake - Secretary of Bootlicking
- Mike Lindell - Secretary of Shouting
- Roger Stone - Secretary of Crime
- Stephen Miller - Secretary of Child Snatching
- Donald Trump Jr - Secretary of Self-Loathing
- Eric Trump - Sturgeon General
Kristi Noem - Wildlife/DomesticAnimal Management
Head of Henry Kissinger in a jar - Secretary of Offense
Yup. As in: Eric is the king of the vacant-looking wet fish.
Another sure sign you’re not intelligent or educated: You think Musk is a genius.
I mean unless he’s falsifying his IQ records, he is technically. 30 points higher than genius.
That said: 1) he’s probably falsifying and 2) he’s a fuckwit genius or no
IQ is overrated as a method of measurement
I mean okay. That’s like saying temperature is an overrated method measuring the conditions outside.
Does it capture the true essence of how it will feel outdoor? No, there are too many other factors to consider.
But it gives the ballpark.
And someone with 130 IQ is unquestionably smarter by every conventional standard than someone with 100.
So like him or not (I don’t trust me lol) he is a genius.
No, because temperature actually is a valid and reliable measure of heat. IQ tests are neither valid nor reliable. Most of their use has been co-opted by racists seeking to prove a point about minority groups. They are not a measure of intelligence, and should not be used as such. Broadly speaking, human intelligence is too vast and complex to be easily reduced to a three digit number.
Signed, an incredibly annoyed psychologist.
“People who boast about their IQ are losers” - Stephen Hawking.
Aside from creativity (which elon also excels at) and social intelligence (which he does not - or does he) it is a good predictor of intelligence. I mean psychologist or not, you can argue it til you’re blue in the face but tests measure aptitude, there’s a reason the entire world uses them. Saying someone is “good at tests but not good at the thing” is just a lazy argument.
Temperature measures heat, which is one of many indicators of how it’ll feel outside. IQ tests measure “reasoning/problem solving, memory, pattern recognition, and information processing speed.” As a psychologist you know that already! Those are a few of the many indicators of a persons intelligence! See how that works?
Carry on!
Is it perfect? Obviously not! But to say it’s inaccurate is just wrong.
An IQ test doesn’t really measure much other than how good you are at IQ tests.
160 is a high score, but that’s the same as Sylvester Stallone got. And people don’t go around saying he’s a genius.
The world is full of “genius” people that made things, but all Musk seems to make is money.
They do go around saying that though He’s smart as fuck.
?
“An IQ test doesn’t really do much except tell you how good you are at IQ tests - that… Measure… intelligence.” See how that sounds? Lol.
It doesn’t measure intelligence, it correlates with (logical) intelligence. There is also emotional intelligence, which Musk is evidently on the exact opposite side of genius. You just can’t put an exact number on intelligence, only approximate it. Having a lot of money ensures good baseline education, and many avenues to inflate score. His actions and results are going to speak louder than any score he pumps up, and we know where that ends:
The easiest way to cheat on an IQ test is to simply practice. As far as I know, nobody has yet managed to design an IQ test where you can’t get better with practice.
Sure, and you can also get smarter with hard work and studying. So that tracks. See what I did there lol
Great Scott I’m happy to not be an American, I don’t know how citizens will survive another term by this stupid idiot.
He is planning on becoming our supreme leader.
I don’t know how citizens will survive another term by this stupid idiot.
that’s the thing–we wouldn’t
They’re such a bunch of weird cockwombles.
In an alternate timeline, Elon Musk may have actually been a reputable head of the Department of Transportation.
Rich idiots failing upward, unite!
Trump thinks Elon is a genuis… that speaks volumes of Trump’s own intelligence
A scary large number of people still seem to see him as a genius. It sounds dumb to those who pay any real attention, but those that don’t still (in my experience) see him as smart.
Fair
I listened to the Joe Rogan podcasts (I know, I know) and the difference of intelligence between Zuckerberg and Musk is night and day.
the difference of intelligence between Zuckerberg and Musk is night and day.
Which one is dumber?
Go make that decision for yourself my friend.
I’d rather not have to listen to either of them.
He used to at least be smart enough to have a good PR team, but even that has collapsed in recent years.

If musk is a genius then I have a 10 inch dick
See I can make stuff up too
Reminds me of a joke.
Guy walks into a bar and sits at the counter. He pulls out a little piano from one pocket and sets it down, from another pocket he produces a little man in a tuxedo who he sits at the piano and he starts playing a jaunty little tune.
Bartender looks over and is like “Whoa! Where’d you get that?” Guy at the bar says “Well the other day I was cleaning up this old attic for a client and I accidentally knocked over an old oil lamp and, wouldn’t you know it, a real live genie appeared and offered to grant me a single wish. Unfortunately, the genie seems to have been hard of hearing so now I have a 10 inch pianist.”
Musk probably doesn’t realize how big of an insult that is.
