"Genius and savvy": A phrase used to describe something that is not "genius" nor "savvy"

"I invaded a country and ended up tanking the economy and imploding my own military. I am so genius and savvy."

"Wow, that test was a total disaster. I should have been less genius and savvy about it and studied more."

From Donald Trump describing Putin as "genius" and "savvy" for invading Ukraine.
