Valedictorian means something, but going to Princeton doesn’t. There are plenty of morons who manage to graduate from Ivy League schools, I have met lots of them. I can guarantee you that there is at least one politician that you think is an idiot that graduated from an Ivy League. He might have been a genius at one point (though I doubt it), but I do not think that a Fox News host who brags about never washing his hands [1] is smart. Maybe drinking messed up his brain.

Yes I know about elites who went to Ivy Leagues. Hell Bush Jr. went to Harvard. But looking at Hegseth's family history (Father was a basketball coach, Mother was a "executive business coach") maybe they were upper middle class but definitely not elite so I suspect that his academic credentials played a major role in his admission and not any monetary contribution. >He might have been a genius at one point (though I doubt it), but I do not think that a Fox News host who brags about never washing his hands [1] is smart. Maybe drinking messed up his brain. Hence why I wondered if he got "damaged" in some way during his military career(three tours overseas, one at Gitmo). On a side note: I find it absurd that people are mass downvoting something that is literally just one google search.
