Obama's answer does seem like a PR or interview type of answer. Maybe compared to trump's, sure. Obama actually has an education though. |
There's a nonzero chance Trump is actually just illiterate.

ay, Obama's also a fan of Song of Solomon.
it's tied with The Count of Monte Cristo for being my favorite book. |
So Obama says in an interview that he reads Shakespeare because I guess he thinks it makes him sound smart to read material that middle schoolers learn, and Trump talks like people do when they aren't reading off a teleprompter.

If you worked on your reading comprehension a bit he actually explains why he changed his mind on Shakespeare and how he came to appreciate his work. Ironic as f***, Mal.

"Sir these are CNN books?" No ordinary people don't bulls*** about reading books. Most people are happy to admit they don't read books if they don't.

Maybe Obama should've read a book on economics instead.
No, Das Kapital doesn't count either.

Hate to break it to you people; but Obama gave an answer just how any other intellectual Harvard guy talks. He is able to elaborate on why he enjoys those books the most. He doesn't just repeat 1-word adjectives "amazing book. amazing" while pointing to a nightstand.
I dunno if it's just because this is the new Normal - but generally if you're describing your favorite Album or artist or musician or athlete - you're able to say why and what it means to you and when it became your favorite not just point at a nightstand thx

Obama might sound dignified and eloquent when he's reading a speech that's right in front of him, but unlike Trump he can't shoot from the hip at all. That's a better measure of intelligence and Trump wins in that area.

I'd be pissed off as f*** if I ever tried to have a conversation with Trump. Dude doesn't speak in full sentences, just little stream-of-consciousness sentence snippets. It's annoying as hell and my brother speaks the same way. You really wouldn't want to speak to someone where you're pretty much required to ask follow up question after follow up question just to find out how their day was cause answering a seemingly simple question is literally impossible for that person.Posted with GameRaven 3.2oh look it's the usual suspectshttp://i.imgur.com/5UL2v5u.gif

Her family already had money...but so did Trump. And she turned her family name into an empire...much like Yrunp did... Trump can run a business.
