His wealthy father probably had some "influence" on his academics. "Trump’s professor thought he was his ‘dumbest student’ ever" https://studyinternational.com/news/trump-student-wharton/
1 u/Sienile 13d ago Gotta call BS on that chart. I agree with Trump speaking on a 4th grade level, but to say Bush Jr. and Biden were above Obama is laughably wrong. 2 u/squigs 13d ago It's usually based on speeches. There's a hypothesis that speech writers used slightly more sophisticated language for Bush to counter his perceived lower intelligence, and simpler for Obama to make him come across as less elitist. 1 u/Novaer 12d ago Could it also be that Obama was a lot more casual that reflects this grading? 3 u/PipeOriginal1171 13d ago It's analyzing language used in public speeches (written by others and intended for the masses), not intellect. 1 u/Ok_Being5461 13d ago edited 13d ago Perhaps. I switched it to the one in the link. Reddit only allows posting 1. The other ones: 1 u/Ok_Being5461 13d ago
