W was pretending to be dumb. He's not a genius or anything like that, but there are plenty of clips of him from the '90s as governor of Texas where he speaks like a normal, educated person in complete sentences and everything, and he even pronounced "nuclear" correctly. Republicans these days intentionally speak at a 5th grade level; Trump's big innovation is just speaking at a 4th grade level.
