    Wharton should release the transcripts, legal action be damned. I’m certain they have far better lawyers than Trump.

      I’m curious what Trump could sue them for. I know there is the privacy act that relates to school record (it makes it so parents can’t get their kids college records, if I remember…), and maybe he could try for financial damages?

        Slander… as the content will speak for itself. With actual malice too, as the content will speak for itself.

        Truth be damned! I hope it gets leaked if they don’t release it. Or maybe some group of internet denziens can get a hold of it.

          It’s been years, if someone doesn’t have it by now, it likely won’t happen.

          As to the slander… isn’t one of the core components of the civil action that the spoken word (libel is written, eh?) is false?

            False… Yeah that was my poor attempt at a joke.

            The whole schtick with these weirdos seems to be that up is down and left is right. Truth does not matter any more.

    You know, it just kinda clicked for me, a lot of people can relate much more to the bottom person than the top. There’s quite a few people who scoff at education. Call people eggheads and stuff.

      That’s Thad. He peaked in high school in '87, and is pissed his kids and wife hate him. With just a little more introspection, he might see that he’s the root cause of it all, but it’s a lot easier to bully people weaker or smarter than he.

      They are intimidated. It sucks because they know they can’t outwit people. But they can ban together and lie to you. Doesn’t sound like Republicans at all huh?

    Republicans should replace Donald Trump with checks notes Alan Dershowitz?

    Or perhaps we just need a high performing Solicitor General on the ballot like… uh… Ted Cruz?
