In line 11 Duncan says “There’s no way to read a man’s mind by looking at his face. I trusted Cawdor completely.” What does this tell us about King Duncan’s ability to “read people”?

Question

What does this say about his abilities.

This tells us that King Duncan isn't very good at reading people. He trusted Cawdor who betrayed him and he trusts Macbeth who will kill him.
