If ever there was proof of that, Trump is certainly it. He’s an absolute moron yet somehow still a highly successful conman, at least going by the metric of morons that believe him if not by actual money conned out of people (although he seems to have been depressingly successful at that as well). If there’s a silver lining in all this it’s that Trump is so stupid and incredibly bad at business that he seems to burn through money as fast as he cons it out of people.

successfully conning people might mean the victims are stupid, but it in no way whatsoever means that the con man is smart

pretty sure his lifelong motto is “why spend your own money when you can get some rube to spend theirs”
it is mind-boggling, how many decades he’s gone notoriously skipping out on his bills and people still deal with him
Yes, I call this the dum-dums vote for dum-dums hypothesis.
