The Guardian: Trump challenges Tillerson to 'compare IQ tests' after reported 'moron' dig

* Trump suggests IQ battle with Tillerson: ‘I can tell you who is going to win’
* President also claims of unprecedented legislative success in first nine months

Donald Trump has challenged his secretary of state to “compare IQ tests”, if Rex Tillerson did call the president a “moron” as reported. Trump told Forbes magazine: “I think it’s fake news. But if he did [say] that, I guess we’ll have to compare IQ tests. And I can tell you who is going to win.”

The president spoke to the magazine on Friday and the interview was published online on Tuesday. Last week, an NBC story claimed Mike Pence, the vice-president, had to talk Tillerson out of resigning this summer, and that Tillerson had called Trump a “moron”. Some reports said he called the president “a fucking moron”. Tillerson said he never considered resigning but did not deny calling Trump a moron. His spokeswoman said he never used such language.

WNU Editor: The drive-by media is just eating up this story .... the number of stories on this one stupid topic today is unbelievable. And while I do not know who has a higher IQ .... Trump or Tillerson (my money would be on Tillerson) .... I will credit where credit is due .... President Trump's instincts on what would grab headlines has always been spot-on since he became a public figure decades ago. Instincts that even to this day his critics completely fail to appreciate or understand, and for those who do .... green with envy. As to how Secretary of State Tillerson is now reacting .... if he is smart he should realise that the President just made a pretty good sarcastic jab at him, and that the case is now closed.

Update: Duhhhh .... White House: Trump's IQ jab at Tillerson was 'a joke' (Politico).
