Dumbest Leaders In History

This list is about the dumbest, not about worst leaders. As an example: Adolf Hitler was the worst leader ever but he was smart as hell!
The Top Ten
1 Kim Jong-un (North Korea) Kim Jong-un (born 8 January 1983) is a North Korean politician who has been Supreme Leader of North Korea since 2011 and the leader of the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) since 2012.

He served as the 43rd President of the United States from 2001 to 2009 and 46th Governor of Texas from 1995 to 2000. He is the eldest son of Barbara and George H. W.

It has been argued that as many as half a million Iraqi civilians died as a result of this fools lie that Iraq possessed weapons of mass destruction.

Was surrounded by many very competent people but made multiple decisions that were disastrous. Iraq war, both Iraq wars, complete disasters. He is a disgrace

Decided to invade Iraq because of nuclear weapons supposedly being there all he did was turn it into a unsuccessful american and saudi puppet for oil

4 Justin Trudeau (Canada) Justin Pierre James Trudeau PC MP (born on Christmas Day, December 25, 1971) is a Canadian politician who is the 23rd Prime Minister of Canada (assumed office November 4, 2015). He is the leader of the Liberal Party and the second-youngest Canadian prime minister after Joe Clark. His father, Pierre Trudeau, also served as the Prime Minister of Canada (1968-1979, 1980-1984).

He certainly proves his stupidity when it comes to his complete inability to manage and operate an effective, efficient functioning government. Rather he has damaged our global reputation to the point where we're considered a joke by both our adversaries and allies. He has created irreparable division within Canada. He has doubled Canadians federal debt while creating massive cost increases to housing, rents, mortgages, food, fuel and everything. Across the board he's a disaster. However when it comes to self enrichment and personal pleasures, he has done extraordinarily well for himself.

Can Justin Trudeau be smart and dumb at the same time? The answer seems to suggest this may very well be the case. It is obvious he is completely unqualified to manage anything remotely related to governing a country and his incompetence is fully displayed by a unaccomplished track record and multiple failures. However he has been very successful at self rewarding endeavors like traveling the world enjoying glorious vacation in the most magnificent locations. He's been able to lavish himself in the most expensive hotels while enjoying exquisite dining experiences and it's all funded by your taxpayer dollars. He able to only work part time reveling in his tremendous ability of having to worst Parliament House of Commons attendance record of any prime minister in Canadian history. Most importantly he has been extraordinarily successful at enriching himself from an endless stream of corruption schemes and scandals.

5 Ronald Reagan (United States of America) Ronald Wilson Reagan (1911-2004) was an American politician and actor who was 40th President of the United States from 1981 to 1989 .

6 Donald Trump (United States of America) Donald John Trump (born June 14, 1946) is an American businessman, television personality, politician, and the 45th President of the United States.

Really dumber than Hitler and Hillary and pol pot Hitler started the Soviet war and decided to kill everyone who was a Russian and Slav Hillary because she is a liar like Obama and pol pot who killed people for no reason and Nero who burned rome

Mentality of small child, compulsive liar, spoiled brat who has had his ass powder-puffed since birth

7 John VI (Portugal)

Instead of fighting for his country and commanding his troops there, he escape to Brazil cowardly.

8 Fidel Castro (Cuba) Fidel Alejandro Castro Ruz, known as Fidel Castro (August 13, 1926 – November 25, 2016), was a Cuban politician and revolutionary who governed the Republic of Cuba as Prime Minister from 1959 to 1976 and then as President from 1976 to 2008.

Under his administration, Cuba became a one-party Communist state; industry and business were nationalized, and state socialist reforms implemented throughout society.

How does a revolutionary leader standing up against the unjust be a dumb person?

9 Andrew Johnson (United States of America) Andrew Johnson was the 17th President of the United States, serving from 1865 to 1869. Johnson became president as he was vice president at the time of the assassination of [Abraham Lincoln].

Andrew wasn't elected at all! He's just lucky that he was a vice president. He destroyed everything what Lincoln worked hard for and abolished many rights for black citizens.

10 Barack Obama (United States of America) Barack Hussein Obama II (born August 4, 1961) is an American politician who served as the 44th president of the United States from 2009 to 2017. He was the first African-American president of the United States. A member of the Democratic Party, he previously served as a U.S. senator from Illinois from 2005 to 2008 and as an Illinois state senator from 1997 to 2004.

He created hipper racial division and got unbelievably rich capitalizing on his fraudulent race chatter. He was able to gain enormous influence and popularity among the political bureaucrats which he still holds and many believe he is still pulling the strings in Washington

Created more division within the citizens of the country then anyone and is the first president to get a third term as ruler of the biden/OBAMA 3.0 regime.

It is unbelievable how this man sowed the seeds of division and hatred within American society that have grown and spread throughout the country. A shameful disgrace indeed.
