Maybe Trump isn’t stupid, but whatever intelligence he has gets overwhelmed by his narcissism. He has made this whole Russian hacking story worse by insisting that it didn’t happen. If he had said, “Well, that’s terrible, but at least it didn’t make a difference in the actual vote count”, it would be a smaller story, but for some reason he has to attack the intelligence agencies he is going to have to depend on. This is not smart.
