donald trump said the story again We talked about electric boats and sharks while visiting South Carolina, but again he never understood.
“I had an uncle who was a great professor at MIT for a long time, I think, the longest tenure ever,” Trump said. I'm very smart, I have three different degrees, and you know what, I have an aptitude for something. As you know, there is such a thing as aptitude. I said, ‘Well, what happens if this ship is so heavy that it starts to sink and you’re on top of it? Am I getting electrocuted or not? That is, if the boat sinks and you get on top, will the current flow through the water and sweep you away? And let's say there's a shark out there about 10 yards away. Should I give up immediately, or can I just ride the electricity down?' And he said, ‘Sir, no one has ever asked us that question.’”
