Hillary Clinton is using Donald Trump’s comments that leaked 1995 tax returns showed his business “genius” to mock the GOP nominee’s intelligence.

“In the debate [Trump] said it was smart to avoid paying taxes. His campaign was bragging that it makes him a genius. But what kind of genius loses $1 billion in a single year?” Clinton said at a rally in Toledo, Ohio, Monday.

Hillary Clinton’s supreme awe-inspiring intelligence didn’t just theoretically compromise national security — it actually cost American lives.

Clinton, however, would be wise to temper her attacks on Trump’s intelligence, lest she draw attention to her own “genius” record.

What kind of genius attacks her opponent for losing $1 billion dollar in a year, when under her stewardship at the State Department, $6 billion vanished due to improperly filed contracts? Clinton may not be the best at math, but that’s $1.5 billion a year.

What kind of Wellesley and Yale-educated genius fails the Washington, D.C., bar exam? “For the first time in her life, she had flamed out — spectacularly,” wrote Carl Bernstein in his biography of the former first lady. “Of 817 applicants, 551 of her peers had passed, most from law schools less prestigious than Yale,” he noted of the 1973 bar exam.

Of course, who could forget the time Clinton gave Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov the symbolic gift of a button with what she thought was the Russian word for “reset” written on it. But genius Hillary and her genius staff didn’t even take the time to make sure they had written the correct word. The Russian word for reset is “perezagruzka” — Clinton’s gift said “peregruzka,” which means “overcharge.”

In 1992, genius Clinton almost derailed Bill Clinton’s entire campaign when she directly insulted stay-at-home mothers. “I suppose I could have stayed home and baked cookies and had teas, but what I decided to do was to fulfill my profession which I entered before my husband was in public life,” she declared infamously during an interview at the time.

Unfortunately, sometimes the genius of Hillary Clinton manifests itself in far less funny — and far more dangerous — ways. Indeed, what kind of genius thinks it’s a good idea to construct private, unsecure servers and use them to conduct sensitive government business?

“Although we did not find clear evidence that Secretary Clinton or her colleagues intended to violate laws governing the handling of classified information, there is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information,” FBI Director James Comey said during his statement following the agency’s investigation into the matter.

There is a fine line between extreme carelessness and stupidity. Comey questioned Clinton’s intelligence during the House Oversight committee’s hearing into the FBI’s decision not to indict Clinton.

“It’s an interesting question whether she … was sophisticated enough to understand what a ‘C’ in [parentheses] means,” Comey told Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.).

“You asked me if I would assume someone would know,” he continued. “Probably before this investigation, I would have. I am not so sure of that any longer. I think it’s possible — possible — that she didn’t know what a C meant when she saw it in the body of an email like that.”

But Hillary Clinton’s supreme awe-inspiring intelligence didn’t just theoretically compromise national security — it actually cost American lives. Despite Ambassador Chris Stevens’ almost panicked requests for more security at the U.S. embassy in Benghazi, Libya, Clinton declined to provide Stevens adequate protection. On Sept. 11, 2012, Islamic militants attacked the diplomatic compound and Stevens and U.S. Foreign Service official Sean Smith were killed.

Trump posted massive losses in one year that he may have been able to turn to his significant economic advantage. Clinton, on the other hand, has a nearly thirty-year record of saying and doing stupid things that turned to no one’s advantage.
