Donald Trump is proof that you can go to Wharton and still be illiterate
Thighland. Yo-semite. Frorida. Noble prizes. Melanie Trump. Wonerful. Prople. Barrack Obama. Priveledged. Joe Bidan. Pour over. Motor cycle. Global waming. Donald Ttump. That’s right, he once misspelled his own name. And of course we’ve left a bunch out.
One time Trump tweeted this: “I love New York, but New York can never be great again under the current leadership of Governor Andrew Cuomo (the brother if Fredo).” That’s right, he misspelled a two letter word, while invoking an ethnic slur against Italians. Trump then went on to accuse Cuomo of having weaponized the prosecutors to do his “dirty work.” Trump also seemed to think that “drill for Gold (oil)” is a thing. Then he stated that “Too many prople” are leaving “our wonerful City.” He then deleted the entire thread and tweeted it again just to change “if” to “of” – but ended up tweeting “wonerful” and “prople” again.
Donald Trump is proof that you can go to Wharton and still be illiterate. The trouble isn’t that Trump can’t read or write. It’s that Trump has the nearly infinite resources of the White House and the presidency at his disposal, and yet he’s still too arrogant, narcissistic, or lazy to bother having someone around him cover up his illiteracy.
