President Trump has maintained for quite some time that he graduated “first in his class” at Wharton in 1968. He has repeated the claim several times to various publishers and news agencies, including the New York Times who he accuses of “f**e news.”

Well, it turns out, Trump didn’t graduate first in his class as he claims. In 1968, the Daily Pennsylvanian published a complete list of the 56 students who were on the Wharton Dean’s List that year – and nowhere can Trump’s name be found. That means, not only was Trump not first in his class, but he wasn’t even anywhere near the top 15 percent.

While Trump’s transcripts have never been publicly released, it’s not hard to verify this kind of information. Wharton graduate Stephen Foxman spoke with the DP and said that if Trump graduated with any honors he likely would have been mentioned in the 1968 Commencement Program. A copy of the program from the Penn Archives shows 20 Wharton award and prize recipients, 15 cum laude recipients, four magna cum laude recipients and two summa cum laude recipients for Trump’s graduating year. Trump’s name was never listed.

Trump has previously suggested that he had an MBA from Wharton’s prestigious graduate school, opting to tell people he went to the “famous” Wharton. But, that too, was a lie. They’re pretty much known for their business graduate degrees, and Trump played on that prestige when he spoke with people. In reality, Trump never attended any graduate studies there, and only t***sferred in during his junior year to enroll in their undergraduate program for two years.

Several of his classmates gave a mixed account of his time there but stated that he didn’t seem to be much of an intellectual man – opting to leave the campus over the weekend to go back to New York. When he was there, he didn’t study a lot according to Wharton graduate Louis Calomaris, saying he did not “seem to care about being prepared. Don was loath to really study much.”

This proves nothing. The certificate on my son's wall states that he graduated Magna cum Laude. He is not listed in the year book as having graduated. He took classes while on co-op, and these records did not get to his school in time--his fault, not the university's.

That proves nothing. The certificate on my son's wall states that he graduated magna cum laude. The yearbook does not show that he graduated. While on co-op he took classes at another university, and these records did not get to his university in time to be included in the yearbook--his fault, not the university's.

Yeah, that lying phony Trump and his college records. Not like that Barack Hussein Obama, nosirreebob, Barry Soetoro was, uh, uh, yeah, spending millions of dollars to keep his college records hidden, and no one knew him from any of those colleges. So, uh, yeah, obama is the smartest man in Tahiti, or wherever he's hiding.
