№ 673.1: EXTRA! Bigger Is Gooder

‘Im not sure I've even heard of a category 5 says Donald Trump about Hurricane Dorian – video 

During a briefing on the category 5 Hurricane Dorian sweeping across the Bahamas and toward the US coast, Donald Trump said: ‘All we know is that it's possibly the biggest. I'm not sure I've even heard of a category 5, I knew it existed. And I've seen some category 4s. I don't even think I've heard the term other than I know it it's there and it's the ultimate and that's what we have unfortunately.’ Trump has said the same thing – that he has never heard of category 5 hurricanes – at least four times over the last two years, including as recently as May.

DUNNING-KRUGER (September 2)Q

I never heard of a Cat 5 hurricane,
but I know higher is better.
In school the losers settled for “A's”.
I always got “F's” — a much better letter.

These days I get praise for whatever I do.
Everyone waves at me shouting “F you!”
