US: Trump wants to see Obama's High School Transcipt


http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/us-election/8472964/Donald-Trump-Barack-Obama-wasnt-qualified-for-Ivy-League.html 

Not sure I understand what the objective is here. It's no secret that many folks who went to Ivy league schools did not deserve to get in either, either due to their family lineage connections, or outstanding alumni contributions the year before acceptance.  That was very common in my own high school and the kids who were accepted because their parents were alums fully admitted it, despite their flunking maths and chemistry (and French). Also just playing the right position in the right sport could seal the deal. What's the point the point here?  Why invent this problem ? There are much bigger problems in the world to me other than to chase this invented distraction.  DT just sounds like a bully to me.

Trump is a clown, and he's making the Republican Party look like a bunch of loonies who are more worried about trivial stupidity than solving real problems.

Will he be demanding Dubya's transcripts? Everybody knows he was an eejit but got into Yale because of daddy.

They don't need any help with that, because it's what they are.

it's quite simple really

You demand documents from someone, and one of three things happens
Either they deliver the documents, and you move onto the next demand
Or the documents contain something negative and you look like you exposed them
Or they refuse to deliver the documents, and they look sneaky and underhand and you look like a crusader for truth.

That's the theory, anyway.  In practice someone like Trump looks like an out of touch bully.

I want to see evidence that whatever is on Trump's head is actually human hair and not a dead animal.

Can we request to see all Trump's business dealings and tax returns? This guy had better be squeaky clean if he decides to run.

No way he really runs.  He's like Ross Perot, Fred Thompson, or Sarah Palin; they like having lackeys telling them they should be President, and they like the idea of being President, but they don't want to actually go through the process of running for President.

If there was a President by acclimation or something like that, they'd be all for it.

They don't actually want to be President, either.  I mean, they want to be The President, but they don't want to do the job.  It's all about having power, and not about doing a difficult job.

Right.  They want to ride around on Air Force One and wear the jacket with the Presidential Seal and have everyone stand up when they enter a room.  Dealing with Congress to get things done and having late night TV show hosts make fun of you and having to tell Katie Couric what newspapers you read, not so much.

I've wondered about the species of that thing.  Perhaps he should present some information.  lol

The pompous windbag.  At least he could have the decency to follow through on his bluster.

...
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

he was never out there to run for president.  He was out there to throw manure and act like a child, so the eventual Republican candidate could keep a "whiter than white" image
