Roughly 96% of people polled by the Mirror US believe Donald Trump is the "dumbest president ever."

The survey, conducted last week, asked 15,000 people to assess President Trump's decision-making as the crucial 2026 midterm elections approach.

"'Dumb'" is such a polite word," one commented.

"I think it's pretty obvious to anyone with an IQ over 90. Even kids think he's stupid," another joked.

Yet they still leave him unimpeached.

Technically not true. He's been twice impeached.

Again, technically not true. His IS and remains an impeached president. He has been impeached twice by Congress, and that is still the case.

The senate failed to convict him.

Impeach means to accuse, it's analagous to indictment in criminal law.

impeached twice, not convicted each time. third time may be charmed.
