Poll of the Day > Trump's college admission under review

(+) Yeah! (+)

Professors have asked President Donald Trump's alma mater to investigate his admittance to the university decades ago based on "new evidence" revealed by his niece.

They're looking into his transfer to the University Of Pennsylvania in the mid 1960s since allegations arose that he paid someone to take exams for him.

Prior to transferring to Penn, Trump had attended Fordham University.

Can't schools take degrees away for any reason anyway? Isn't it all just politics to do whatever will get them the most money in the end?

A student who faces a rape charge at Pomona College, in Claremont, Calif., has sued the school over several aspects of the case, including a rule against bringing a lawyer to a judicial hearing. A judge ruled last week that his lawyer must be admitted to the hearing. The student, who graduated two weeks ago, is at risk of having his degree rescinded.

The accuser waited two and a half years before filing a complaint with the school's disciplinary board. She says she went willingly to the man's room and did not object to his sexual advances or resist them, and that no force was used. What occurred was a rape, she contends, because she did not explicitly consent to sex.

A lotta he say she say itt

Not really? And at this point, it'd be a meaningless gesture.

That is pretty fucking ridiculous for a lot of reasons.

Considering that Trump was in college, what, 40 years ago? I doubt that, even if he cheated, there'd be any evidence. I mean, what could they even find that would have lasted all that time?

You think it is ridiculous for people to question how a man with an IQ in the 80s got a college degree?

Do one of those reasons include the fact that his actions described thus have no bearing whatsoever on his academic performance?

I think it's ridiculous for somebody like you to question anybody else's IQ. I also find it ridiculous that people are stupid enough to buy into false claims like yours:

Basically it's another one of BS0's classic denialist: "These rioters can't be starting fires! It must be secret Trump supporters!" >_>

Fun fact: Trump supporters also went back in time to burn down buildings in Ferguson after Mike Brown's death.

I mean Biden has been on record for months that he is against any form of violent protests or vandalism and he and other prominent Democrat politicians have been saying the same thing over and over

First I've heard of that. I was simply calling him stupid, because he is objectively stupid but I don't think he meets the bar of I'm actually not sure what to say I'm afraid of getting modded if I use the word which starts just below 80.

Here's what I wanna know. This day and age we have a bunch of dumbass classes in college like Underwater Basket Weaving and Gender Studies. Not to mention a bunch of students who clearly think college is more Animal House than study. So even if Trump did have an I.Q. of 80 (Seriously? The man got to be POTUS with an I.Q. of 80? What does that say about you big-brained smart individuals?) is that even a problem? I mean for the whole college degree thing.

Also, do you seriously think there isn't some right-leaning college out there willing to give Trump an honorary degree if, somehow, they do revoke his degree?

And finally, do you HONESTLY think this will end well? Either they're gonna not revoke the degree at which point they look like they were politically biased for even looking into it in the first place, or they revoke it and... nothing changes for Trump (POTUS doesn't require a degree and neither does running his companies) while at least that college comes off as being nothing more than a political tool.

Nope. But he doesnt care about any of us. So might as well watch him crash and burn instead of setting the precedence for cheaters can win.

I don't see how it's apples and oranges. You don't need money to become POTUS. Having wealth helps, yes, but because that means you can afford to get your name out there and were likely someone with some fame before-hand. You can leverage donations and the party will pay at least some of your funding as well if you become the nominee. Don't let yourself be lied to by people who insist the only way is money so they can advance their own political agenda.
