LordAdam16: Trump went to an Ivy school because his father donated. If I'm lying, show his secondary school result that took him there which his lawyer banned the school from releasing Even after getting there, he paid his way to a low degree and still refuse to release his result Person wey done pass law school got no business comparing to that 1 Like |

Ibime: https://poetsandquants.com/2020/07/07/to-help-get-him-into-wharton-trump-allegedly-paid-someone-to-take-the-sat-for-him/?pq-category=business-school-news Mary Trump writes that Donald’s sister, Maryanne, “had been doing his homework for him,” but that she couldn’t take standardized tests in his place. “Donald worried that his grade point average, which put him far from the top of the class, would scuttle his efforts to get accepted. To hedge his bets he enlisted Joe Shapiro, a smart kid with a reputation for being a good test taker, to take his SATs for him. That was much easier to pull off in the days before photo IDs and computerized records. Donald, who never lacked for funds, paid his buddy well.” Still, it apparently took even a bit more than a high score to get him into Wharton. Trump also got an important assist from a close friend of his family, according to a former University of Pennsylvania admissions official. In an interview with The Washington Post, James Nolan acknowledged that in 1966 he had a phone call from Fred Trump Jr., Mary Trump’s father, asking him to help his younger brother Donald gain admission to Wharton. One of Trump’s marketing professors at Wharton, the late William Kelley, apparently thought little of his student. A close friend of the professor, Frank DiPrima, said that Kelley told him 100 times over three decades that “Donald Trump was the dumbest goddam student I ever had.” “I remember his emphasis and inflection — it went like this — ‘Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had,’” DiPrima wrote. “Dr. Kelley told me this after Trump had become a celebrity but long before he was considered a political figure. Dr. Kelley often referred to Trump’s arrogance when he told of this — that Trump came to Wharton thinking he already knew everything.” Trump has consistently declined to release his college transcripts, and during his 2016 presidential campaign his personal attorney, Michael Cohen, threatened colleges with lawsuits if his academic records were released. Yet, Trump had no hesitation in falsely claiming that Obama was “a terrible student, terrible. How does a bad student go to Columbia and then to Harvard?” He then challenged Obama to release his college transcripts, arguing that those records were important in determining whether a person was qualified to be president of the U.S. |

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-46407993 On Thursday night, former Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said in a rare public appearance that he had to repeatedly tell Donald Trump that some of the things the president wanted to do were impossible because they were against the law or violated a treaty. we lived through trump and yet the history is being rewritten |

Ibime: How anyone would compare Kamala’s academic feat to Trump’s is beyond me because the facts are out there. I say it all the time, you can hate the party or its candidate but don’t distort facts. I mean we listen to this man speak in public, one would think he is diagnosed with some of form of speaking or learning disorder..and that is who we are comparing with an accomplished lawyer? I mean, we are speaking of a woman who was raised by parents who spent their entire life in the academia. Republicans argue the media is weaponized and used to misrepresent their candidates but Republicans do the same and is buttressed by this despicable attempt to compare education, intellect or academic achievement. 7 Likes 2 Shares |

raumdeuter: I don't know o.... In fact, I don't know anything about American politics. I just find it hilarious that a professor actually said it with his full chest that his ex-student who is now a top politician was the dumbest student he ever had. No filters. |
Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by LordAdam16: 2:17pm On Aug 23 |
Ibime: Of the five children of Fred. Two went to Ivy League. Mary and Trump. Fred who was the heir apparent did not. Mary went on to become a Judge. Trump ran the family business. Why did Fred Trump pay for Trump and Mary to get Ivy League education but not the other 3 and especially his name sake Fred Jr who he wanted to succeed him? Harris is an airhead. That much is clear. You also are unable to contest that. A lawyer who cannot ace a softball interview while running a presidential campaign is a disgrace to her profession. -Lord 5 Likes |

BlueRayDick: Probably his politics does not align with that of the Professor The test will be If Trump is the dumbest then he likely got the lowest score since the Prof started teaching 1. Does everyone pass his class if no as I will assume 2. Did Trump pass or fail? 3. If Trump passed then that means he was not the dumbest and the Prof is lying 4. If Trump failed, then how did he graduate 1 Like |

BlueRayDick: Trump is the more certain airhead. Trump's elder brother's best friend was the admission officer at that university back then. Then the father oiled it further with money. There is a reason Trump no want make dem release him result. E no go funny to see say Presido na olodo The family no get any evidence of being book smart or being intellectually gifted. His grandfather made the initial family fortune by running an ashi joint before moving into real estate business. Trump's father studied to be a carpenter before inheriting the family business. Trump started donating money to the Uni around the time his kids got into the Uni. Most likely following his father's play book. Kamala also has elements of air headedness but e no dey her genes. She probably fell into it because she was able to use her looks to get by and didn't have to apply herself. Kamala Harris's mother had master's degree in Endocrinology at 21 and PhD at 28. Her father had PhD in Economics at 28 and was a professor by 34. Her sister was a Law Professor by 30. Her maternal uncle has a PhD in Economics. One has to work hard in a negative direction to become an airhead from that kind of gene pool. 14 Likes |

LordAdam16: Oga stop it. Trump is a dumbass and you know it. You think Harris can't debate, wait for the debate, if Trump won't interrupt off topic like he always does when the topic is beyond him. Its like you are forgetting Harris debate with Mike Pence last election. Fred Trump junior became a pilot, nothing concern am with wetin you dey talk about Ivy league. The Trump family is generally genetically dull. Trump should release his result. Ivy league kor, Ivy league ni. 50% of students that applied for UPenn in Trumps time got in, he had to cheat his way in as a transfer from a nonsense school. His degree is as valid as Davido degree. 1 Like |

GloriousGbola: BlueRayDick: At the end of the day, Trump studied Economics at an Ivy League and graduated. Or did he also ask someone to take all his tests or pay every Professor and the school to pass him? The opinion of one professor does not change the fact that he graduated from U.Penn with a BS in Economics. The University of Pennsylvania is not a degree mill where you can sort lecturers like you guys are familiar with. However you got in, you have to earn your stripes to get your baccalaureate. Whichever way you slice it, there is no comparing an economics graduate of the Wharton School of Business and someone who went to a non-T30 law school who failed her first bar and never secured a job in the private sector. That same someone who right now refuses to conduct an interview because everyone knows her ceiling is reading from a teleprompter. -Lord 6 Likes |

afrodoc2: So even after all the genetic advantages and her parents working as Public Ivy scholars, she couldn't get admission in an Ivy League nor could she read law at a T30 school. And she still failed her first bar. Meanwhile the Trumps who are not intellectually gifted are a billionaire family and MaryAnne and Trump were able to break the cycle and become Ivy League alumni. Their kids are also Ivy League alumni. Anyway as long as you and the others can accept that Kamala is an airhead, I'm good. That was the OG bone of contention. -Lord 10 Likes |

Apart from milf settings i no even like Kamala. Ever since her first interview that i watched years back she came across as a fake person. She appeared to be trying to, for electoral/political reasons, attach herself to a culture (African American/Black culture) that she had disavowed most of her life. 1 Like |
