Roughly 96% of people polled by the Mirror US believe Donald Trump is the “dumbest president ever.”

The survey, conducted last week, asked 15,000 people to assess President Trump’s decision-making as the crucial 2026 midterm elections approach.

“‘Dumb’” is such a polite word," one commented.

“I think it’s pretty obvious to anyone with an IQ over 90. Even kids think he’s stupid,” another joked.

    I really enjoy those surveys because there’s usually a fill in part at some point and I use then to express the most blasphemous opinions possible. When one survey was trying to gauge at what point abortion should be legal, I wrote in that if it’s still attached to me by umbilical cord I get to crush its skull between my thighs as a conservative limit.

      As someone from outside the US … the abortion stuff is wild to me. It’s between the mother and doctor to me … I don’t see a point in people who aren’t knowledgeable about this process to chime in.

        You’d surprised. We got these crazies protesting on a regular basis here in Switzerland. Sure, they got no power other than disturbing the public transportation, but they exist. Usually they need to be protected by huge police tricks.

          oh wow, that’s interesting, are these “crazies” religious? like do they put up any religious placards or whatever?

            Yes, they are fundamentalists. Usually from independent churches that are far more extremist than our Protestant or Catholic ones.

            There’s also a lot of anti-science sentiment, but they are usually in the anti-vaxx protests.
