    “Donald Trump was the dumbest goddam student I ever had.”

    Professor William T. Kelley, who taught marketing at the Wharton School of Business and Finance when the orange one was a student there (source)

      He also doesn’t read. Ever. The only book he is known to possess (a gift) is one with speeches by Hitler. He probably hasn’t even read that one. He had also real trouble reading the teleprompter during the campaign trail and seemingly ignored it most of the time.

        Yeah, there’s a LOT of evidence that Trump is functionally illiterate. He just scrapes by with telling people he doesn’t have time to read, or having people read things for him.

          The guy tweets constantly, with recognizable characteristics such as random capitalization that I don’t think you can do with speech-to-text. He’s a dope for sure, but I’m sure he can read. Maybe he has bad eyesight and too vain for glasses.
