Iranian General killed by US Drone.

Well, at the moment they aren’t talking about the UK as a point of revenge but our fucking MPs need to be stronger in their wording about this than they are otherwise the revenge will be taking place in our cities n’all.

And make no mistake, they will be taking their revenge!

A further point. The troubles in the Middle East really kicked off in the 80s. Anyone living in Lebanon, Iraq, Syria, Israel may well feel like it's a War. And a lot longer than WW2.

Harris got his taste for bombing civilians in the 1920s, against recalcitrant tribes in Iraq.

That 156 has been questioned fairly widely. QAnon using it as a source isn't a great endorsement.

Basically, someone created a chart in 2006 for previous presidents. The author of Trump 156 has taken an assumption of new intake at Wharton based on SATs, and taken that to be Trump's IQ. Trump was never a freshman there, but transferred in, so the argument is built on sand.

Don't forget how he got into Wharton in the first place.

The answer begins with James A. Nolan, the Penn admissions officer who interviewed Trump and ushered his application through the vetting process, which he says he did at the behest of Trump’s older brother, Fred Trump Jr. Nolan grew up in Queens and had been friends with Fred since high school in the mid-1950s. During an interview at his apartment on Washington Square, Nolan told me he spent a lot of time in those days at the Trump McMansion in Jamaica Estates, which he described as “very big, with lots of bedrooms” and blackface lawn jockeys lining the approach. Both friends planned to enroll at Penn, but only Nolan got accepted. Ten years later, Nolan was working in Penn’s admissions department — he would later become director of undergraduate admissions — when Fred called in a favor.

Nolan says he found “no evidence” of Trump’s alleged “super genius” at the time. Furthermore, he says, Wharton wasn’t nearly as difficult to get into in the mid-’60s as it is today. Back then, according to Nolan, Penn was accepting 40 percent of all applicants, as opposed to its current cutthroat acceptance rate of seven percent. Not surprisingly, Trump remembers it differently. “I got in quickly and easily,” he told the Boston Globe in 2015. “And it’s one of the hardest schools to get into in the country — always has been.”

So to summarise -

- The 156 IQ has nothing to do with Trump. It's from a study in 2006 of freshmen.

- Back in the 60's, 40% of people got in to Wharton, it wasn't an exclusive school and they let a lot of people in, nowhere near the 7% today.

- Despite that, Trump still needed his brother to call in a favour with the admissions officer to get him in.

More things for @bluemc1 to be impressed by.


I mean really, come on. Listen to the man speak for 5 minutes and it's immediately apparent he doesn't have an IQ of 156. The man doesn't understand wind FFS.
