Kimmel: Maybe Trump’s a Genius Because He’s Rich and All He Does Is Tweet, Golf, and Eat Big Macs

‘But maybe he is a genius’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
KIMMEL: "Trump spent the weekend punching back at a new tell-all book that raises questions about his mental fitness. Many of the most damaging moments came from former trump adviser Steve Bannon, who spoke to author Michael Wolff. So trump tweeted, Michael Wolff is a total loser who made up stories in order to sell this really boring and untruthful book. He used sloppy Steve Bannon, who cried when he got fired and begged for his job. Now sloppy Steve has been dumped like a dog by almost everyone. Too bad. W what does dumped like a dog even mean? They dropped him off at a shelter? I do like this detail that Steve Bannon cried when they fired him. I hope that one’s true. It isn’t, but I hope it is. Trump is really mad about this, to the point where he tweeted this weekend to declare himself a genius. I don’t know if you saw this, but he wrote throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being like really smart. Then he goes on about Hillary. He said, I went from very successful businessman to top TV star to president of the united States on my first try. I think that would qualify as not smart but genius and a very stable genius at that. One thing about geniuses, they always brag about being — especially the very stable geniuses. The one thing that’s stable about Donald Trump is his fried chicken intake. Nothing else is stable. But maybe he is a genius. I mean he did figure out a way to get a six-figure job where all he has to do is tweet, watch TV, play golf, and eat big macs in bed all day. "
