Wouldn't this be the perfect time ...

… for all of Trump’s former schools to release his grades?

Now that it’s been revealed that he’s threatened legal action against them if they do so, he no longer can, because doing so now would only serve to prove that he doesn’t want that information publicized – which in turn would only raise the obvious question: WHY?

If the stable genius really IS a genius, why would he insist that the proof thereof never be revealed?

But knowing how low the Republicans (a.k.a. Trump ass-kissers) are willing to stoop, they’ll probably try to dismiss his reluctance as due to his well-known humility, and a desire to NOT draw attention to his incredible scholastic accomplishments.

And there are people among us who would swallow that bullshit whole – the same way they’ve swallowed everything else.

I still greatly generalize the reports.

You’d think that he’d want every living creature on the planet to know of his superior intellegence. So I guess that in reality, he’s as dimwitted he comes across. Oh no! Is he not quite as smart as he claims? Oh no, was it all a lie? From the President?

Boy, he sure fooled us.

Trump was too stupid to get into the graduate school program at Wharton. In addition, trump did not graduate with honors. http://fortune.com/2015/08/14/donald-trump-wharton/

His school posted his graduate program that shows that he did not graduate with honor shttp://www.pennlive.com/news/2017/02/what_is_trumps_real_record_at.html
