Yes I do. I think it goes back to the cave man days where the biggest tallest guy with the heaviest club was in charge

In theory in democracy, anyone who can capture the people who should win can regardless of their intelligence. There's reason for this, while maybe misguided, would you trust if a voters list came with an IQ test?
@val70 I'd love to date your wit, intelligence and laughter. 😌

@awildsheepschase What's yours then? I got 126 🤓
@val70 I'm not surprised by your 126. 🤓 I've never tested, I feel it a foolish test, but ironically I'd suggest lower than yours. There's also the emotional quotient.

Because they can’t let the truth be known. T bags IQ is apparently 73 which is incredibly low. Besides you really think they wouldn’t fake it? He literally wrote his own letter proving he was healthy enough to run. There are people who have estimated what various presidents IQ’s have been and honestly it’s not surprising.

@Captainjackass there would most likely be an abuse, but my point was more like its interesting why its not normalized. lucidity tests and other psycho tests r definitely required

@NinaCherry because then most of the people in power wouldn’t be in power.

@Captainjackass It wouldn’t surprise me, but there is no evidence that Trump even took an IQ test, much less that the results are public knowledge. His supposed 73 IQ test result has been comprehensively debunked by fact checkers across the political spectrum.
Because IQ tests, and even IQ itself, doesn't mean much. Being able to do some quick calculations or recognize patterns in squares and circles, doesn't really help with a strategy for foreign relationships for example.

@SomeMichGuy having a low IQ probably is a reasonable prediction of not understanding the complexity of governing people indeed. So you might filter out some unfit ones, but I stand by my point that a high IQ won't confirm that someone will do a good job.

Why do automated systems waste resources on failed unbelievable worlds?

They're smart, anyone that says otherwise needs to get over themselves
