Some employees at the Department of Education changed their responses back to the more neutral language, only to have it changed yet again to the partisan response, multiple sources tell WIRED.

    He’s too dumb, also near death, but mostly, he’s just too dumb. All of them are. Our saving grace is that the evil isn’t smart enough to succeed at evil.

      I wouldn’t call him dumb. If he was literally stupid he wouldn’t have made it this far. He knows exactly what he does and doesn’t care. Hes evil as hell, but not dumb.

        The man himself is absolutely dense. Just listen to one of his speeches or interviews for five minutes. But the really smart (and dangerous) people are the ones whispering into his ear.

          This is my impression. Kinda like Dick Cheney whispering into George W. Bush’s ear, just… even more openly evil. And that’s saying something.
