Our reading

An editorial interpretation.

The speaker dismisses someone as an idiot and offers a degree in woodwork as proof, as if the qualification speaks for itself. The closing 'I ask you' appeals for agreement, turning the remark into a sneering rhetorical question about how absurd the person's credentials are.
