Donald Trump has publicly asserted his high intelligence, stating he possesses a very high IQ. The former President differentiated himself from “some other people,” implying they lack his ability to discuss the topic. Trump further claimed to have one of the highest IQs globally. This is not the first instance of the American leader publicly praising his own intellect. The statement was made without providing any supporting evidence or specific IQ score. It continues a pattern of self-aggrandizement characteristic of his public persona while serving as the United States' leader.
