A Correct answer
Explanation

A simpleton is specifically defined as a foolish person who lacks good sense and can be easily deceived or tricked by others. A misanthrope hates mankind (not foolish), a misogynist hates women (political/social view, not about being easily fooled), and a jester is a professional entertainer (a job, not about being foolish or gullible).
