In today's world, where gentile is considered b-o-r-i-n-g and an asshole can say for you what you are too timid to say yourself, that is all too true. On the other hand, no one loves it when it is directed at them. Trump made a classic mistake, assuming that his minions were both motivated (true enough) and dominant (not so true). Then there is the issue of overexposure. Even assholery loses its appeal when it's relentless and repetitive. Trump crossed that line a long time ago.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
