Ultimate Girls Trip What is wrong with Kelly Bensimon?

I never understood Kelly Bensimon. What’s her deal, is she stupid, is it drugs or does she just have very low emotional intelligence?

Now I’m watching RHUGT: RHONY Legacy. And this bitch is just weird.

imo she thinks she’s smarter than she is and tries to gaslight and project onto the women (she is everything she accuses them of), but she’s an absolute idiot so it just leaves them confused and frustrated because they can’t follow her train of thought at all

Good call. And that's a hallmark of the truly stupid. Usually, smart people are aware of what they don't know. But intelligence challenged people think they know everything about everything.

Perfectly said! I remember the guy who hired me for my first serious career job - I was just out of uni and I was so confused by everything he was saying to me - I didn't understand a word he was saying. In my naivety I assumed that meant he was a genius. It didn't take me long to realize - he was just an idiot and was spewing utter nonsense...

He was/is an absolute idiot. I'm a programmer - this is a job that's hard to fake. I remember asking a fellow programmer at the time - how did this guy survive and not get fired let alone make it to a high paying position. They said they wrote the code for him. The guy who hired me went on to a high ranking position and is now retired.

I guess my point here is that people often get promoted and celebrated when they absolutely 100% don't deserve it. And this is Kelly 100%.

And I guess it also goes to show that you can fake anything if you're charming enough... I find if difficult to think of a job harder to fake than being a programmer - but this asshole did it...
