Former Attorney General Eric Holder on Thursday night suggested that Donald Trump may not be “very smart” because he “sees everything in black and white terms.”
CBS News’ Charlie Rose asked Holder about his Wednesday comment questioning whether Trump has “the gray matter” necessary to be president.
“You mean he’s not smart enough to be president? Rose asked.
“Yeah, I wonder,” Holder responded. “I sometimes think that he hides behind a certain bravado to hide a lack of substance that he has.”
“A person this far along in the process, I think we would know a little more about what his plans are. We’d know more about who his mentors might have been, who his intellectual guides might be. And I don’t have any sense that there is any of that to him,” he continued. “He seems to me to be a very shallow man.”
The former attorney general then said that Trump views the world in “black and white.”
“One of the other things that makes me doubt his intellectual heft is he sees everything in black and white terms, and that is — that’s the realm of people who aren’t very smart, because the world really — the tough stuff is in the gray areas,” he said. “That’s where you have to delve and try to figure things out, and he has shown no interest and I would say no capacity to delve in and operate in those gray areas.”
Watch the clip:
Donnie Drumpf’s intellect is as short as his fingers.
Boy is THAT an understatement, Mr. Holder.
why would a really smart guy qualify his statement by using the word ‘may’?
Wow, this is fabulous trolling. Holder, a black man, taunts Trump, a racist white man, about not being smart enough, all while repeatedly talking about “black and white”.
ho ho ho.
This is Eustace level trolling.
I think Donnie’s soon going to really understand the expression “death by a thousand cuts”…
