WOW: Melania Trump’s Claims She Graduated College Are About As Credible As Her Speech Last Night

[Cali_Democrat]

Melania Trump’s professional biography says the wife of presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump began modeling at age 16, but she only began working full-time after obtaining a degree. She graduated “in design and architecture at University in Slovenia,” according to the bio as of Monday night

<...>

It’s a good story, but it doesn’t appear to be true.

Melania Trump never earned a university degree in architecture ― she dropped out of college after her freshman year, according to her biographers. Still, she claims to have a degree from “university in Slovenia.”

Questions about her education grew more significant Tuesday morning, following the revelation that Melania Trump plagiarized parts of her speech to the Republican National Convention from one that First Lady Michelle Obama gave in 2008.

Monday raised the question of whether there was anything else Melania Trump hadn’t been entirely truthful about.

Slovenian journalists Bojan Pozar and Igor Omerza wrote in their biography on the former fashion model that she “became ― and remained ― a college dropout” after leaving the University of Ljubljana’s architecture school following her freshman year.

1. In her defense, when she was lying about graduating

college (like nobody ever does that!), she never realized she'd be under this type of scrutiny. She didn't even have to worry about being scrutinized by some HR department.

Btw, her father is reportedly "jocular" and "self assured," sort of like Trump. Maybe when she and 24-year-older Trump first met she actually found him rather appealing. These are her parents. Daddy!

3. Damn. Her father...

...looks like Trump!

6. it's in her official bio for the convention program. I think it's fair game.

She, and others in charge of her publicity, should have realized that the convention program bio should be up to the challenges of all possible scrutiny.

8. Oh, yes. The gang who can't shoot straight,

lead by a man with a cripplingly short attention span and the abysmal ignorance and incompetence that comes with it.

5. I'm pretty sure those Slovenian biographers have also said

that she claimed to have won a contest (something to do with modeling, I think) in which she actually came in second.

7. So basically, she is a foreign import version...

of Sarah Palin?

Well, I guess she can read a full sentence off of a teleprompter better than the Wicked Witch of the North, but still...

9. she's surrounded by a web of lies and deceit..

10. The whole Trump family are a bunch of frauds

Nothing about the Trumps seems honest or genuine. And yet, Donald still has a good chance of becoming president. Says a lot about this country.

11. Her son Barron was born in Slovenia

And speaks Slovenian.
