Well at Harvard...if you're black...you can get an honors degree with a C- average.

Many of us who voted for Trump did not do so because we particularly liked his style, or thought he was a mental giant, or identified in any way with his moral code. We voted for him because we wanted somebody who was different from the Washington crowd. Someone who wouldn't be afraid to upset the apple cart and would be strong enough to handle the punches along the way. From that perspective, I think so far so good.

Only time will tell, of course, if this is true and if it will work. But in the meantime, I am reluctant to question his motives when he does something that seems peculiar. I'm willing to wait and see before passing judgment. A weaker person would have caved by now.

He works for the same people Hillary would have worked for. The ultra wealthy who don't appear on Forbes lists...trillionaires. The parties are part of the divide and conquer strategy. The rich keep getting rich as "we" borrow to pay them. They've gotten $20 trillion so far.

Yes...time will tell...time will show us more of the same. America...becoming "darker" and poorer...deeper in debt.

Explain please what motive a President of the United States could have for lying to the entire world publicly ? OR making false accusations world wide and publicly ?

What is the motivation for any of that, and if you come up with any, we are in serious trouble when such things are accepted as a MOTIVE

Lying and being mean spirited is not "peculiar". It is lying and being mean spirited.

i also suggest that this "gig" in the WH is one of his biggest money makers for both he and his family.

Commentary appropriate to any administration in the last 50 years!

When I was speaking of motives, I meant it in reference to how he has been handling Congress. Healthcare being one example of that. Even his lies, as you call them, I think are often fake-outs, to divert the situation in some way.

Again, I don't know any of this for sure, just have a different outlook than you on what MAY be really going on. I could be proven wrong in the end, but then again, it may be you who is proven wrong. I keep saying - only time will tell - and since patience, sadly, is not one of my virtues, it's not easy waiting to see the outcome of all of this. In the meantime, prayer helps.

I can't say I love Donald Trump. I hold my breath and even switch channels when he talks even though I voted for him.

But he is not as dumb as he sounds. His financial success is proof of that. And once you get the hang of his deplorable attempts to communicate he has some decent ideas. I didn't vote for him because of his saintlike attributes. I don't think he has many if at all.

Cold,you aren't very good with words either, a lot like Donald Trump.

LOL

Your entire diatribe (and for that matter, almost all of your drivel on any subject)...depends on your perceived sense of superiority.

Obviously, as shown by your blind loyalty and constant references to the developer...you judge that superiority by how much money someone has.

I feel sorry for you in a way, because deep down you know what a scumbag wretched human being Trump is and the damage he is doing to this great nation...yet you still feel compelled to support him.

It has nothing to do with his 'ideas,' it is all about you hating Clinton...more than you love this country.

So when you're on your death bed, reflect on why you have such a weak character...and idolize those with money.

Sorry, but my ethics, integrity and sense of decency, unlike yours...is not for sale.

So answer the question hypocrite, why don't you consider your fellow right-wingers who constantly use the 'C' and "N' words...as having "nasty mouths?"


That was, of course, a rhetorical question...as we all know the answer.

On the other hand, Trump has an IQ of 156 (genius level), which is way higher than Obama, Hillary and makes Michelle Obama look like a moron.
Trump is also a billionaire, so either he learned something from his "business school" or those professors are a bit over priced. I wonder what the net worth of those professors is today. How many of them are billionaires?

"Einstein also failed to impress his teachers. From elementary school through college, his teachers and professors thought him lazy, sloppy, and insubordinate. Many of his teachers thought he would never amount to anything."

Trump is doing a great job considering opposition from both the left and the right. He is doing exactly what we elected him to do, and it is only congress that is standing in his (and America's) way. He is not one of them and they feel threatened by his presence in their very private club. He is not a lawyer or dentist and definitely not a politician. He's a businessman and they only like businessmen when they are contributing to their pocketbooks.

Yeah right.


Who told you that...Orange Julius hisownself?



Deepest Sincere Wishes:

Trump is not shy about his intellectual prowess. As he tweeted in 2013: “Sorry losers and haters, but my I.Q. is one of the highest -and you all know it! Please don’t feel so stupid or insecure, it’s not your fault.”

Of course, “smart” is a bit subjective. There’s book smarts as well as street smarts. Many would say Trump has run a pretty smart campaign. But clearly he’s saying that his brain is very sharp — as he puts it, “super-genius stuff.’’ At one point, Trump rebutted criticism from columnist George Will and GOP consultant Karl Rove by saying: “I’m much smarter than them. I think I have a much higher IQ. I think I went to a better college — better everything.”

Trump’s college background, in fact, is often his key piece of evidence for his intellectual superiority. But there’s less here than meets the eye. Trump did graduate from the Wharton School of business at the University of Pennsylvania, an Ivy League college. But Trump did not get an MBA from Wharton; he has a much less prestigious undergraduate degree. He was a transfer student who arrived at Wharton after two years at FordhamUniversity, which U.S. News & World Report currently ranks 66th among national universities. (Besides, simply going to an Ivy League school doesn’t prove you’re a genius.)

Gwenda Blair, in her 2001 book “The Trumps,” said that Trump’s grades at Fordham were just “respectable” and that he got into Wharton mainly because he had an interview with an admissions officer who had been a high school classmate of his older brother. And Wharton’s admissions team surely knew that Trump was from one of New York’s wealthiest families.

For years, numerous media reports said Trump graduated first in his class from Wharton, but that’s wrong. The 1968 commencement program does not list him as graduating with any sort of honors. In fact, the Boston Globe reported that he barely made an impression at all: “His former classmates said he seemed a student who spoke up a lot but rarely shined in class, who barely participated in campus activities, shunned fraternity parties.”
