So this is where we’re at now.

President Trump made a comment in an interview about comparing his IQ to Rex Tillerson‘s in the latest volley of “moron”-gate. Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Trump was joking.

And today, at the State Department briefing, spokeswoman Heather Nauert was asked about Tillerson’s IQ.

She laughed a bit and said, “It’s high.”
