How do you define "dumb"? Donald Trump isn't dumb, in a legitimate mentally disabled way, if that's what you mean. If anything, the most dangerous people are the ones who are smart, or at least of average intelligence, but are willfully ignorant, greedy and selfish. They can be intelligent, academically speaking, but stupid in a humanitarian way. None of that has anything to do with breeding.

Neither is Clinton. She's an arrogant, contemptible, lowlife liar who is only interested in power, money and herself. And if you or I did half the things she has done we would be in prison right now. She let four Americans die in Benghazi, and then lied to Congress and their families about it. Then later she said "What does it matter?" And at least four of her political enemies died (or were murdered) mysteriously in the past few years. The message was clear: Don't get in the way of the Clinton Machine!
She and her trailer park trash husband went from dirt poor to multi millionaires by selling America to the highest foreign bidder, especially those who harbor and fund Islamic Terrorists!
And anyone who supported her is an idiot.
And she LOST the election!!! And the Left was too arrogant and dense to see it coming.
God Bless Donald Trump! His election has SAVED this country!

"Hillary Clinton is only interested in power, money and herself! Now let me tell you why a man who puts his name in giant letters on every single thing he makes (and a lot of which he doesn't, but licenses his name to be slapped on anyway) and is constantly bragging about how much money and influence he has is the savior this country needs!"

I would argue smart people are only dangerous, when there are stupid people around for them to control.

Hmm firstly, you don't have to be Mozart or Einstein to be smart. Or indeed spend your entire life fully engrossed in your craft. It is obvious what he means by smart, to everyone that is.
Secondly, perhaps eugenics needs to be studied more, offically? (Because you know it's happening somewhere anyway) It's rather unfortunate that such an interesting form of science (at least on an intellectual level), has forever been tarnished by the Nazis. It's a shame Hitler wasn't a global warming denier.

I think you'd agree, conventional evolution would usually dictate that the stupid/weak would slowly be "phased out," to put it Mengele-ish. But in our case (humans), we have a bastardized version of evolution whereby some of the population are creating spectacular advancements intellectually and physically, that often give power to all, but don't take into account that it includes our lowest common denominators. As they are able to piggyback through life on the smarter/saner people, without ever having to ackowledging it. They have time to breed, grow in number and power, yet never progress intellectually.
I guess my point is, smart/sane people need to stop giving stupid people weapons, access to unregulated media, and votes. Especially votes.
I disagree completely with the logic of allowing any old idiot to vote. We don't ask the cretins to judge whether or not someone is qualified to be a doctor or pilot do we? No, we try to ensure that professionals, who are learned in medicine and aviation, make those decisions for us. I understand the potential for corruption when you control votes like that, but corruption is better than destruction.
Perhaps it is time for democracy to evolve.

The original poster is right. At least the people of Idiocracy realised they were stupid and valued intelligent people, even though they didn't always understand the protagonist and occasionally tried to kill him.
If the real-world US government found a person with an IQ of 250, I doubt very much they would invite the person to the White House and ask them to solve all the country's or the world's problems.
