Trump 'maybe not that bright,' says Alex Jones after the former president defended vaccines
S E E D E D C O N T E N T
Donald Trump's defense of COVID vaccines is not going over well with some supporters, including far-right conspiracy theorist Alex Jones, who questioned the former president's brain power after a speech in Alabama Saturday where Trump was booed for saying he'd been vaccinated.
According to Jones, the 45th president is caving into pressure from CNN — the cable channel Trump calls "Fake News" — to get inoculated.
"(CNN president) Jeff Zucker snaps his fingers, and Trump clicks his heels and hops up there at attention and says, 'How high do you want me to jump, boss?' " Jones said Sunday before playing a clip of Trump's weekend speech.

Some supporters of the former president in Cullman, Ala., booed when he told them that he respects their "freedoms," but added, "I recommend take the vaccines. I did it. It's good. Take the vaccines."
In a clip published by watchdog group Media Matters for America, Jones called Trump a "good person" but said he needed to be held to account for his vaccine advocacy.
"B.S., Trump," Jones said. "That's a lie."
He also claimed the COVID vaccines would "create mutants" and that Trump was being duped by the mainstream scientific community.
"Shame on you, Trump, seriously," Jones said. "If you don't have the good sense to save yourself and your political career, that's OK. At least you're going to get some good Republicans elected, and we like you. But my God, maybe you're not that bright. Maybe Trump's actually a dumba--."

Jones welcomed candidate Trump to his "Infowars" program in 2015 at which time the GOP hopeful described his host's reputation as "amazing" and vowed, "I will not let you down."
In addition to having claimed the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre was a hoax and the 9/11 attacks were an inside job, Jones claimed in 2020 that his line of "Superblue" and "Supersilver" products protected against COVID-19. That prompted the FDA to send Jones a letter warning him that his unproven elixirs were being sold in violation of the law.
In a tape leaked in March, Jones, who has backed Trump's unsubstantiated claims of fraud in the 2020 election, said he wished he "never would have f---ing met Trump."

Every now and then Jones has to prove he is still the king of the morons. Trump gives him a run for his money though.
Well he was right this time if he said that Trump is, "Maybe not that bright". However, the fact that he said it for the wrong reasons does cement his position as the king of morons. It is very difficult to believe that Alex Jones is serious with some of the shit he says. He is either a master shock jock giving Howard Stern a run for his money, or a complete imbecile giving, as you mentioned, Trump a run for his money.
He is an imbecile who became rich identifying people more imbecilic than he is.
But Howard is wayyyyyyyy funnier
I don’t know. Watching Jones go full on bat shit crazy, face turning red, veins bulging on his forehead, and mouth foaming at the corners is pretty damn funny. I can see Jack Nicholson playing Jones in his biopic…. Gimme the bat Wendy!….
I guess that depends on if you find intentionally funny funnier or unintentionally funny funnier.
I can go both ways
He's a fine one to talk! I mean, like...Alex Jones is like not exactly the brightest bulb in the Chandelier (to coin a phrase
)
Other idioms or phrases that might apply to Mr. Jones:
Not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
A few bananas short of a bunch.
His elevator fails to ascend to the top floor.
Couldn't reason his way out of a paper bag.
Dumb as a bag of hammers.
Not playing with a full deck.
Sharp as a marble.
Thick as pig shit.
Or as they say in Monty Python and the Holy Grail - "A tiny brained wiper of other people's bottoms!" As it were....
You forgot "One can shy of a sixpack."
Ten fries short of a Happy Meal.

Donald Trump SUPERSIZE diet revealed: Can YOU out-eat the fast food president?
FUELLED by mounds of fast food, 12 cans of Diet Coke, scant sleep, frequent bouts of rage and up to eight hours of TV, Donald Trump’s daily lifestyle sounds like a recipe for a cardiac arrest. The 70-year-old’s only exercise is the odd round of golf and even then he takes a buggy around the course. ( Express )
No one has to call him smart-- he's perfectly capable of doing it himself!
So you know more about construction than anyone ahole? Your failed wall proves otherwise.
Omg, do you need drugs to be this insane?
Or maybe you just need to take some “ quail egg concentrate .”
He’ll put that in his body, but not a rigorously tested vaccine.
Ha,ha,ha,ha! Wow! You mean even this insane right wing pundit propagandist has seen the light? Not exactly, since he still fails to come to the realization that Trump has seen a significant drop off in his grifting of donations due to red state surges of covid that happen to be decimating Republican voters.
It was never about being "smart", it was always about the money and how much money could be stolen from the Republican base. Spew right wing talking points and start up the money vacuum cleaner. Trump was only savvy about how to grift, not actually smart since he's even losing those who finally abandon him or are lost to Covid.
He looks so constipated in that photo. Or maybe he’s just in pain from the double mastectomy.
Bad Hal! Bad Hal!
Jesus! Hal, please pass the brain bleach!
No biggie on this. Jones knows alot about morons and the moronic. He is an expert. He surrounds himself with them.
