What Is a Hidden Illiterate?

It explains why he has family members sitting in with him at briefings and meetings. It explains why Ivanka listened in on his call with the President of Argentina. It explains why he hates the Teleprompter and prefers to ad-lib, as he has stated. It explains the never released Transcripts from Fordham University or from the University of PA.

Rumors claim his father bought his way into Fordham University. Why did he transfer after 2 years? We do not know but the Wharton Admissions Officer was best friends with older brother Freddie. Trump spent years trying to brag he earned a much more prestigious Wharton MBA degree before finally admitting it was an only a BA.

Fellow students have little to remember:

One former classmate in an Accounting class remembers, "He rarely showed up to class and “everyone” knew he bought the answers to the final exam. He spent little time on campus preferring to travel back and forth to New York City."

4000 Wharton Alumni, Faculty and current students recoiled and were prompted to write, in July 2016, an open letter to Donald Trump stating “You do not represent us,” in which they collectively denounced Trump and the hatred he “actively endorses.”

That Pence is swearing in all the appointees, because no one wanted their picture taken with Trump.

there will be a backlash against his corrupt crony appointees. Having Pence swear them in will give all concerned a little more cover.
