During a quick back and fourth with the press Wednesday, Donald Trump was asked NBC White House correspondent Hallie Jackson whether or not he thought he should be “more civil”?
Trump’s response… Letting everyone know he’s an “intelligent person” because he went to an Ivy League college where he was a “nice student”.
Q: Should you be more civil?

So, No. 45 is apparently so insecure about himself he has to reassure everyone just how “intelligent” of a person he is. That or Trump believes civility and intelligence is one of the same.
I don't know about you, but when someone describes themselves as a "very intelligent person," I tend to assume the opposite. #trump
