Atd translation: balloonheaded clarity

[Mark Kohut]

 One can have a brainless clarity; a head of abstraction full of nothing
but air. I see them all the time (smile. joak).
Trump admin guy Larry Kudlow is one imho.


Another definition: Someone who is unable to make logical decisions because
they dont posses a brain in their head, just simply fresh air.
