    Of all the Democrats claiming President Trump is stupid, I have yet to read one answer my challenge to tell of their life history showing a superior intellect.

    It proves he is smart enough to in politics speak in ordinary English is simple terms so all voters understand what he is saying. Only a zippy pinhead idiot would use a vocabulary trying to prove they know words that most people don't know to try to impress Hollywood limousine liberals.

    What he did not do, however, is use a fake Southern accent like Hilary Clinton did. Now that's stupid.

    Must not have been too stupid he had the grades to get into Wharton. Not to mention Penn who only accept 1 out of every 10 applicants. The average GPA of accepted applicants is 3.93.

    I see now that this was allegedly stated by a now-deceased professor Kelley, who "told [a Daily Kos writer, if course] 100 times over three decades that 'Donald Trump was the dumbest ****** student I ever had.' "

    Naturally the declarant is now deceased, and so there is no way to know if he really said it or why Trump didn't flunk out.

    And he said it 100 times?? Why was he repeating himself so much?

    You'd think they could find a LIVING professor to state that "Trump was the dumbest %#$&&$&#^ student I ever had," wouldn't you? If they are all dead, it's really chicken manure to claim it. How about a living fellow student to corroborate it? And as others have asked, how did he manage to graduate?

    I remember the dumbest students in my classes. Maybe he was an average Wharton student.

    Do you definitely know that the now-dead professor claimed he was the dumbest student he had ever had?

    Anyway, both Politico and the Washington Post and some fellow students report that yes, he did graduate. Did I personally see him in his cap and gown at the ceremony? No. Maybe it's a big conspiracy. Or maybe you just hate him so much you'd float any theory under the sun to discredit him. Which is more likely?

    Unlike many white zippy pinhead white Democrats, President Trump understands the purpose of communication is to communicate. Extra stupid and particularly arrogant "progressives" believe communication is for the purpose of proving you can use words most people do not know - believing that proves they are smarter than everyone else. However, a truly intelligent person will use words that everyone in the group can understand. In election, that means as many voters as possible. President Trump is smart enough to speak in a way that virtually all listeners can understand.

    And FORTUNE and SALON could not find anyone that could say he graduated after his TWO YEARS at Wharton.

    if your daddy left you a couple hundred million I'm sure you could become a billionaire as well (and how many times did he go bankrupt)
    how does an idiot get elected, by getting even dumber people to vote for him...

    We'd rather have an 'idiot' as you claim (making peace between the koreas, something Obama was too stupid to do), than a corrupt criminal who can't figure out how 30K emails disappeared on her own private server no one wanted her to have in her own home.

    The sign of a good businessman is to go bankrupt and then become rich again. Hell, the sign of a good businessman is to go bankrupt, and then to come back to own another business, that isn't making you rich, just giving you a middle class life. Trump came back to be rich again. Very noteworthy in any honest man's book. Reasonable people agree.

    but he never went bankrupt in the sense a middle class business person would...his daddy's money bailed him out each time to start again, he has no concept of what a middle class life is...

    Well, sound like you are indulging in a bit of class envy. People have gone bankrupt, lost millions, and were never rich again. Boxers, entertainers, and even businessmen. That this is what trump beat is evidence that he is successful and that was not just given to him, the success. If you come from money, many times the old man helps the son to get started, and to get started in any business, especially real estate requires money, lots of it. He could have taken what his old man gave him and lost it, hook, line, sinker, never to ever be rich again. It happens. That he came back is all of the evidence any reasonable mind should need, IMO. I think that is a fair and objective conclusion. Looks foregone to me.

    That is not surprising. I got my graduate degree about a decade after Trump, and except for a couple of guys I later worked with I could not tell you anyone else's name in that class. Most grad students have jobs or families and don't socialize outside of class. Remembering someone you spent a few hours with 50 years ago would be rare. I would think it is the same for teachers.

    Dirty Donald got a Bachelors Degree in economics, emphasizing real estate from Wharton.At least that's what he claims.

    That's not even controversial. Wash Post and Politico have both confirmed it. You don't think he would have been exposed after all this time if he were just making it up?

    As I posted previously neither Fortune Magazine nor Salon could find anyone who could verify Dirty Donald graduated.

    Trump has NEVER filed bankruptcy. Corporations he owned stock in filed bankruptcy. Is everyone with any mutual funds that has stocks and any of those companies went bankrupt, would it be accurate to claim everyone in that mutual fund "went bankrupt?" Again, Trump has NEVER filed for bankruptcy, never.
