Christopher Langan, the allegedly smartest person alive in regard to IQ, is a Trump supporter.

https://www.kansascity.com/news/poli...107625962.html

America’s smartest man
Nine miles northwest of Princeton lives Christopher M. Langan, heralded by Esquire magazine and other national publications as the “smartest man in America.”

A former bar bouncer in New York City, Langan reportedly has an IQ between 195 and 210.

British television first tracked him down in the 1990s, having been referred by high-intelligence societies to which Langan belonged. ABC News followed with a 20/20 feature.

More recently he was written up by author Malcolm Gladwell in his book “Outliers.” Gladwell depicted Langan as a musclebound genius who grew up poor and quarreled with teachers, never to be given a chance to succeed in school.

The 140-acre horse ranch that Chris and Gina Langan bought in 2004 to escape the bustle and expense of the East Coast spreads out from a front yard of dilapidated vehicles.

The couple keep to themselves on the roller-coaster hills of Highway P. And like the bulk of their neighbors, they support Trump.

“Consider that this is a ranch, and we don’t like government intervention or intrusion more than anyone else around here,” said Chris Langan, who greets you with a crushing handshake. “There’s no funny business (with Missourians). They know what they like and stick to it.”

He said Mercer Countians are “salt of the earth,” independent in their thinking but happy to stop and help if your car breaks down. He likes also the freedoms that come with living in the remote Green Hills region of north-central Missouri.

“I could shoot off a Saturn rocket in that pasture” and nobody would complain, he said.

Born in San Francisco and raised in Montana, Chris Langan, 64, will never be regarded a product of Mercer County. But as the smartest man in America (a title that he says makes him uncomfortable) he agreed to jot down for The Star some thoughts on why residents favor Trump, beginning with: “They see Trump as a capable businessman whose expertise could help to improve an ailing economy.”

As for Hillary and Bill Clinton, “as nearly as I can gather, (Mercer Countians) fail to see how the Clintons have made $100-200 million while supposedly functioning as honest public officials,” he wrote in an email.

The Langans, by contrast, make a few bucks selling hay.

(and from another 2017 article):

From their modest home off a blacktop north of Princeton, Christopher and Gina Langan emailed a lengthy defense of Trump at The Star’s request for a 100-day report card.

The newspaper had tracked the couple down in October upon learning that Chris Langan had been cited by Esquire magazine, British TV and a bestselling book for having among the highest IQs ever recorded, between 195 and 210.

As for the report card, it’s too early to know if his goals will materialize, the Langans wrote.

“There is obviously an anti-Trump bias in the media,” their email began.

“Unfortunately, some of Trump’s advisers and appointees appear to be willful, intractable, and committed to their own unspoken agendas, making their decisions without concern for him, his image or his campaign promises.”

The couple further noted how money and power have always corrupted the Washington elite, and that “President Trump is now rebreathing the same polluted air that they breathe. ...

“All this being understood we as yet see no good reason to change our minds regarding Mr. Trump’s fitness for office. We still support him and wish him well.”

Also eugenics.

Wife's brother?

Oh yeah forgot.

“World’s Smartest Man Conned by World’s Dumbest.” Thought admittedly I’m skeptical of the honor. Also dude is a lock to be a huge racist given that he has chosen to live in rural Missouri

Does that article explain anywhere how he went from growing up poor and being a professional bouncer to owning a 140-acre horse ranch? I know land is relatively cheap in the Midwest but damn.

probably video poker

Amazing

Wait, is JudgeHoldem a trumper and is that meant to be a vindication?

Because I can go in on Langan's fraudulent ass.

i'm not a trumper (voted for Gary Johnson) but i'm not an anti-trumper either.

I do not know Langan in real life, but it is a profile, so I posted it.

Weird how they all voted for Gary Johnson!

JH,

You’re about a decade late to fool anyone here.

you're saying I'm lying about the fact I voted for Gary Johnson? wtf? i'm sure you can probably find a post or two from me on here about voting for him

being neither a trumper or an anti trumper is so infuriating. So you're not a super racist sh**head, but you have no problem with other super racist sh**heads committing super racist crimes?

Hillary would have been worse imo

makes your head explode huh?

based on what? Russian conspiracy theories and actual fake news?
Outside the Republican/Russian propaganda bubble in Canada most saw Clinton free from the fake news and thought very highly of her abilities to govern.

I mean, yeah, levels of stupidity this high two years into the Trump administration do tend to make one's head explode

Admitting that you voted for Gary Johnson is sort of like admitting that you have syphilis. It's not the sort of thing I would expect someone to lie about. That's a long way of saying that I believe you.

But how could a Libertarian *also* be a stan for Republicans? We’ve certainly never seen anything like that in here!

"Hillary would have been worse" at this point can mean one of four things (let me know if I am missing any):

1. You're rich as **** and value your money more than the state of our country and other people in general.

2. You're a racist/bigot/misogynist, but don't want to be called a racist/bigot/misogynist and you typically don't think you say bigoted things in public or to people who don't share the same views. You probably act on your racism/bigotry/misogyny regularly and get upset when people call you out for your statements or actions.

3. You want the United States and the world to be a worse place for people in general, but especially minorities, LGBTQIA+ people, people with different religious views, etc.

4. You're really ****ing stupid.

which one(s) is it, judgeholdem?

At least he's honest!

yeah i dont want some commie socialist giving my money away :-)
