Donald, Ivanka and Tiffany all went to UPenn. Eric went to Georgetown.

The youngest child, Barron, attends an elite private school in New York City.

For the record neither UPenn nor Georgetown are bastions of conservative thought. Far from it.

So, you believe that colleges and universities in this country peddle "socialist baloney" yet Trump himself was educated in liberal universities and has chosen to not only send his kids to liberal universities but also send them to elite private schools. How do you reconcile that?

It is a good experience when you are a capitalist to go into the lions den. Get the education and understand what it means without being sucked into destructive socialist policy's takes courage and intelligence.
Few survive the gauntlet and go on to make Billions in business.

Courage and intelligence are not the first words that come to mind when describing Trump and his progeny. I love how you think a rich elitist (and not even a very good one) has somehow magically been transformed into the champion of the common man...

I never said she wasn't. I just keep hearing dozens of Trump supporters keep telling me that he is an "anti-establishment guy that stands up for the little people". Despite the fact that he's the definition of rich elitist and has screwed over thousands of those "little people" so he can put a few more nickels in his own pocket. At least call a spade a spade. Also, policy position for policy position (if you can even call what Trump has a "policy position") Clinton is far more aligned with the common person than Trump.

Clinton is far more aligned with the common socialist than Trump. Fixed that last sentence for accuracy.

No need to thank me !!! It's a public service.

So, have they paid Trump $500,000 for a speech yet, because they would be pretty conclusive of a tie, or maybe donated a huge amount of money to his money laundering foundation, oh, that's right it is Hillary that has the money laundering foundation: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/24/us...pany.html?_r=0 or maybe this: Fact-checking 'Clinton Cash' author on claim about Bill Clinton's speaking fees | PunditFact Do you have something like that except with Trump as the sell out to our country?

As of now there is nothing but endless supposition about Clinton. 30+ years and counting of constant investigations by Republicans and ZERO indictments. I don't think she's squeaky clean...no one is...but I don't think she is any more corrupt than Trump. Unlike Clinton Trump has an endless list of very shady dealings and questionable practices.
You mean shady dealings and questionable practices like this: The Violent Crimes and Shady Dealings of Hillary Clinton

I think that is why some are impressed with Hillary, her ability to get away with "murder" literally.

Common person? Too funny. Nothing about Clinton aligns with the "common" person. Remember when she tried to pander to the Hispanics with that being just like their "abuela" (grandmother). One big joke!

I consider myself a common person and also my friends and family and we have nothing in common with the morally, mentally and physically incompetent Hillary Clinton.

Trump is far more aligned with the common Communist though his buddy, ex-KGB director Putin. And he's far more aligned with organized crime in New York and New Jersey. Since you seem to be so concerned about accuracy.

I don't mind !!!
I encourage followers and encourage your efforts to that end. We know liberals are trainable.
We have all seen them trying to make up chit all the time while jumping through hoops.

Trump gets paid a heck of a lot more than Hillary for giving speeches.

How much Donald Trump makes in speaking fees - Business Insider
http://finance.yahoo.com/news/donald...163428237.html
https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...=.91657c0ec21f

As speaking fees go, Hillary Clinton’s allegedly scandalous $200,000 per engagement is chump change compared with Donald Trump’s $1.5 million.



http://www.forbes.com/2008/03/18/tru...8speeches.html

An examination of the highest speaking fees ever paid puts Donald Trump Donald Trump on top with the staggering $1.5 million the Learning Annex paid him for each speech he delivered at the company’s real estate “wealth expos” in 2006 and 2007, more than was earned from addresses by former U.S. President Ronald Reagan and former British Prime Minister Tony Blair

The question is: Who does Trump give these speeches too? Who would pay $1.5 million to hear Trump speak?
