Have any of the teachers or professors who taught Trump ever praised him?

[highplainsdem]

Granted, not many of them would still be alive now...but Trump's been a celebrity for decades, and they could have commented on him over those decades.

It isn't uncommon for people who've taught someone famous and (apparently) successful to talk about the experience of teaching them.

But I don't recall reading or hearing any such talk about Trump as a student...let alone a GOOD student.

He keeps talking about how brilliant he is, but there's nothing from his teachers to back it up.

1. Would YOU.........

ever admit to having had him in your class - because it is obvious he never learned anything!

2. I've never heard a word of praise for Trump from anyone who wasn't being paid by him.

3. Idiot Boy's obsession with IQ ...

... makes me think someone (i.e. a teacher, a school counselor) discussed his IQ with his parents at some point, and mentioned that it was below average - and he obviously never got over it.

4. I never heard anything

read this article:

this here snip it is interesting:

‘I liked to test people’
Trump’s military school education began in 1959.

He was a 13-year-old with a history of trouble at school, and his father, Fred Trump, a prominent New York real estate developer, sent him to the academy to be straightened out.

5. I don't think he has any education bonafides, period.

I know he went to reform school (excuse me, a "military academy"; my bad). I am told he went to Wharton, but I don't know if he dropped out, got a bachelor's, master's, or what happened.

The idea of him graduating from Wharton is pretty ridiculous. Their business programs are VERY quantitatively focused, and I highly doubt he can add two single-digit numbers. He has demonstrated on several occasions that he has no idea how numbers relate to the things or concepts they represent.

7. I read somewhere that he didn't actually go to Wharton.

It was an extension school where Wharton provided a few courses, or something like that.

I'm too lazy to look into it. Someone else might be willing to do a search and fill us in.

8. It's interesting that no one on this thread can produce...

Any evidence of his having any formal education outside of having gone to reform--I'm sorry, "military school". It seems like everyone here has heard the same vague bullshit about his past and his education, but we can't quite place where we heard it, or what it actually was!

10. He went to Wharton because at the time

they were one of the only schools that had a academic real estate department.

But that aside, if he didn't go to the schools he said he did don't you think the Clinton campaign would have brought it up?

9. Wharton says he graduated.

6. I recall that it has been reported he had either thrown something at a

teacher or actually hit a teacher and that is why he was sent to a strict military school. He has always been an aggressive bully.

As a former teacher I can assure you that teachers DO notice "bad seeds" at every age. I have said' "I wouldn't be surprised if I hear about so and so on the news in the future for major crimes". There are some kids who are just "problematic" in many ways. They do raise big, red flags. If 45's teachers were still alive I wouldn't be surprised if they remembered him for demonstrating poor behavior over the years.
