I think that 100% holds true for Johnson. The man is highly educated and well spoken, but acts ridiculous. As for Trump, I fully believe he’s just a useful idiot, as a lot of his blunders have been harmful to more than just his public image. He is also very ego driven and would probably present as more intelligent if he were capable of it, whereas Johnson never seemed to care much when he was ridiculed.
