My disdain for Trump is no secret, but this comment is not just about him.

“Huju he’s a Wharton graduate. So don’t play the uneducated card if you don’t have a similar one”

I am a Wharton graduate, as are two of my children. My father did not buy my way in, and I did not buy my children’s admission.
Similar to Legacy student George W Bush at Yale, legacy and donor admittees receive what are called Gentlemen’s ‘C’s and a diploma. They cut many classes and professors are not allowed to give them failing grades.
Donald Trump did his early college days at Fordham as a commuter and then daddy bought his way into Wharton as a transfer student. He did not gain admission through his high school transcript, SAT and Achievement test scores.

Students such as Trump and GW Bush cheapen the value of an Ivy League diploma and are resented by other students who earned their own admission. Compare this to the current scandal of buying your way into college with fake sports achievements. There are trials going on right now to convict parents and coaches,
