I find it amusing that many of the same people who are constantly criticizing President Trump were the ones trying to curry favor with, or get political contributions from, private citizen Trump not too many years ago.

There's educated and then there's smart. Met lots of "educated" folks that were dumb as rocks. No offense to rocks. 👹

INTELLECTUAL: An individual who is incapable of or unwilling to create or provide goods or services of value to others, who pontificates and expects to be paid for doing so, usually from public funds.

Henry Hyde had a better definition: someone who is educated beyond his intelligence.

That's a great one. I think I'll steal it and add it to my definition, as follows:

INTELLECTUAL: An individual educated beyond his intelligence who is incapable of or unwilling to create or provide goods or services of value to others, who pontificates and expects to be paid for doing so, usually from public funds.

Do you think Mr. Hyde would object to my "borrowing" his insight?
