    Wharton should release the transcripts, legal action be damned. I’m certain they have far better lawyers than Trump.

    You know, it just kinda clicked for me, a lot of people can relate much more to the bottom person than the top. There’s quite a few people who scoff at education. Call people eggheads and stuff.

      That’s Thad. He peaked in high school in '87, and is pissed his kids and wife hate him. With just a little more introspection, he might see that he’s the root cause of it all, but it’s a lot easier to bully people weaker or smarter than he.

      They are intimidated. It sucks because they know they can’t outwit people. But they can ban together and lie to you. Doesn’t sound like Republicans at all huh?

    It’s rare for a professor to disparage the intelligence of a student, but according to attorney Frank DiPrima, who was close friends with professor William T. Kelley for 47 years, the prof made an exception for Donald Trump, at least in private. “He must have told me that 100 times over the course of 30 years,” says DiPrima, who has been practicing law since 1963 and has served as in-house counsel for entities including the Federal Trade Commission and Playboy Enterprises. “I remember the inflection of his voice when he said it: ‘Donald Trump was the dumbest goddamn student I ever had!’” He would say that [Trump] came to Wharton thinking he already knew everything, that he was arrogant and he wasn’t there to learn.”

    Republicans should replace Donald Trump with checks notes Alan Dershowitz?

    Or perhaps we just need a high performing Solicitor General on the ballot like… uh… Ted Cruz?
