I didn’t ace it, but I passed. You guys are losers.

You got 12 out of 15 correct
You’re smart — very smart. We’re going to have to compare IQ tests, and you’re going to win. You did better than the average reader.
The average reader got around 16% correct.

I got 12 out of 15 correct. However, score also said “The average reader got around 11% correct.”

11/15.

This one the was most surprising I got wrong.

“What I’m trying to do is go around from town to town. And I’m drawing as big of crowds — bigger than anybody. Have you seen anybody draw bigger crowds than me here in this state?”

11 correct.

8 out of 15 for me.

Damn if those two aren’t two peas in a pod.

Yep. Quite a few I knew, but some I had to infer based on what was said and who I thought was most likely to say it in that way.

Here is how this works.

  1. Biden speaks a lot.
  2. Biden occassionally talks crap.
  3. There is thus a decent sample of Biden talking crap on a variety of topics.
  4. Trump speaks a lot
  5. Trump speaks almost entirely crap. (Only being truthful and accurate by accident).
  6. There is thus a library of Trump speaking crap on every imaginable topic.
  7. Pair a specific incidence of Biden talking crap with anything Trump says on a specific topic.
  8. Ask “Who is full of sh#t?”

The same strategy could be used to make anyone look dishonest.

Weirdly, the technique is effective not because the person being compared with Trump is full of sh#t.
It is effective because Trump is such a prolific bullsh#t artist that it doesn’t matter what half truth or lie you say. Trump has also said it.

Not good. Not good at all. You’re having trouble telling Biden and Trump apart — literally. You did better than the average reader.
The average reader got around 11% correct.

I got 7/15. I’m kind of proud of the fact that I don’t listen to either enough to discern their particular brand of bullshit and stupidity. OTOH - here we have our current POTUS and top challenger having a dumb-out in front of the country. Good times.

11% ???

How is that even possible?

Is “the average reader” really, really good at chosing the wrong answer?

This might actually explain the rise of Trump.

“I don’t know what the truth is here.
And I don’t care!
But I am really really good at recognizing that style of lying. (And then pretending I don’t recognize it).
Also I like that style of lying a lot.”

11/15 - It was interesting to see the timelines of when some of those were said.
