    Can you name some of the slave free countries in existence when the US was founded?

    When I worked for event promoter a few years back, we were always involved in some kind of a lawsuit. Suits were from one investor claiming rights to a portion of a profit to someone getting injured at a festival (I’ve seen a guy jumping a fence at a festival and literally ripping off his thumb in the process).
    If you have a business that serves general population, lawsuits are a norm. Accusing Trump of being involved in legal disputes related to his businesses is like accusing him for daring to breathe, especially in America where any upper middle class spoiled brat can use daddy’s lawyers to sue you. That’s why in any business you should have as much insurance as possible and then you should also have an umbrella insurance, just to be sure.

    I'm one of those who take them very seriously.

    And I'm also relieved that a majority of voters agree with me that Trump is the most dangerous POTUS America has ever known.

    Sociopathic, impulsive, incapable of the slightest logical analysis, narcissistic to the last degree.

    In two years, the people who supported him will denounce him or be ashamed to admit it publicly.

    It’s certainly an indicator of dishonesty. His first divorce was extremely public. There was not an arrangement . He flat had an affair. So cheating on an SAT wouldn't be far fetched.

    Yeah but people like Surfer Joe isn't going to admit to something like this. He hates Trump too much to acknowledge reality. That's why I just went by the flat numbers instead of arguing why he more than likely has so many law suites against him. I had thought that he would at least admit that he grossly exaggerated...seems he can't even do that. That's serious TDS right there.

    Since the very first SAT's were administered in 1926, and I recall older kids being very concerned about the SAT in the 1950's, let me ask Mary Blasey Ford Trump this:

    How did Donald John Trump get into a fine University like Fordham (2 academic years prior to attending Wharton) without taking the SAT?

    Lots of things can be a sign of dishonesty. In fact there more than likely isn't a single person in the entire world who hasn't been dishonest at least once in their life. Expecting complete honesty in all things in anyone sets a bar so high that you will never trust anyone, ever. Trump has a lot of faults. There isn't a single Trump supporter that will deny that. But the policies that he's churned out so far has been what his supporters want. Whether you agree with them or not. He's done what his supporters wanted him to do policy wise. And to many Trump supporters that's all that matters. His personal life and attitude is not something we care about.

    And to be honest I doubt those on the other side of the fence actually care beyond how it can be used politically. Oh sure, they'll claim that they do care. Doing otherwise would expose that much of it is just political smear. Not saying that this applies to ALL. But I would bet a good 99%...hell I'll give the benefit of the doubt...98% don't actually care.

    I don't care if he cheated on the SAT some 50 years ago. So I'm not going to make a big deal of it. Not sure why folks feel the need to defend it. Those defending pretty much confirm they believe it's possible. All I'm saying is it’s not too far fetched.

    More Evangelicals are chomping at the bit to vote for Trump in 2020 than in 2016. It's due to policy. They're not voting for the president of their particular denominations.

    And they're voting against riot-loot-burn-murder-chaos.

    I doubt it, they are way too far emotionally invested. They'll take their Trump love to their grave.

    I hear ya.
    About the guy that lost his thumb - I was telling the owners that we should invite that guy back to the festival after getting treatment - he literally paid with his thumb to save $60 on a ticket. :applause: He deserves to be allowed inside. His hand is going to be a permanent reminder of his own stupidity.
    People sometimes are incredibly stupid and sometimes they’ll sue you for their own stupidity.

    It is but a scheme to use standardized, cheap to machine-grade tests to make money.

    I wonder how much kickback money the high schools, colleges, and universities who provide testing space get per test?

    Proctor the question.

    When did you stop cheating on yours, before or after that sloppy affair in Roswell with abducted alien sex slaves? That was an ugly chapter, probably shouldn't of confided those squishy details to your cousin. At minimum not shown her the films, right?

    It's not a question of passing it. Schools set a minimum score that they want to their candidates to achieve on the test and there is variance in that level by school. The University of WGAS will have one minimum and an elite ivy league another. the SAT is not the only admission factor. ELITE consider if your father or grandfather graduated from their and a good sizable donation does not hurt. Your last name tied to POTUS does not hurt. Bush girls, Clinton girl, Obama girl get an edge. Hollywood "stars" just pay off admission whores.

    That is life that what people say!!! rejected in April welcomed in by May

    Shouldn't we avoid making personal remarks about our fellow members? Just asking?

    Your article is dated July 24th, and it is making the Erroneous Claim that "The Media is Ignoring" this event.

    Here is an article from 15 Days PRIOR (Dated July 9th) discussing the Pam Shriver statements:

    https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/widow-trumps-friend-pushes-back-mary-trump-sat/story?id=71678433

    The story was extensively covered by the "MSM" (including ABC (and others)) 15 Days Before the False Accusation that was made in the Article in the OP.

    What were that Authors of the OP Article Expecting?

    9/11 Style Coverage?

    Especially in the midst of a Worldwide Pandemic, Economic Problems, and an Upcoming Election?

    The "story " was extensively covered Weeks Ago and the entire "premise" of article in the OP seems to be ignoring that fact.

    Lol, I wrote a work of pure fiction to make a point. Gossip is created to harm, suggesting Yulee has relations with space sex workers ain't.

    Not sure what that has to do with this topic. Can you explain?

    PS in 1970 I was able to go back to college because I had the GI Bill. The GI Bill took me through undergrad and more than half way through grad school. The greatest generation who were the first to get the GI Bill paid for us Baby Boomers of the Vietnam war/era with their taxes for our GI Bill. Almost 60,000 of my military brothers paid for my GI Bill with their lives.

    So my comment is as related or non related as much as yours, right?
