Jesus. This conversation is pointless. The best thing I have to judge the woman's intelligence is what she says. If every statement she makes is a stupid one, I can safely conclude that she is stupid.
Moron is no longer a technical term as it is applied by anyone in the world. But thanks.

If I was of slightly above average intelligence, but lacking good/refined analytical capabilities, but, had a lot of opinions on public policy (many of which were not backed up by fact or critical analysis) and I liked sharing those opinions, and organizations/people stepped up to pay me a lot of money to share those opinions, I would do it. Especially if my history of other non-low paying job opportunities was limited.
I can't see how you would call that stupid decision making. It might be more opportunistic than purely smart, but its not stupid.

You can't see it because I haven't said it. You're not even arguing anything. You're just talking because [SHOCKER] you like the attention.
The things she says are almost always stupid. She has been given a platform because it amazes people how stupid she is and has still managed to win the nomination. You have ignored the fact that she is stupid (as evidenced by her own words) and have focused on the fact that she has an opportunity to make money. Accepting that opportunity makes her neither smart (unless you're talking to Sebby) or stupid. The two things aren't related and I don't know why you bring them up as if they are.
