Eh… Context is important. I think if he had overcome his disability and managed to power through it to achieve a decent education that would actually be a plus.
Instead he has a bachelor’s from an expensive private school where he “studied” abroad. I think it’s just indicative of his history of being able to rely on connections and money to achieve his position in life. And it makes me doubt that he is educated enough or willing to work hard enough to learn all the things someone should know to be president of the United States.
As someone who has a neurodevelopmental disorder, my problem isn’t that he has a learning disability. It’s that he’s a rich fuck boy with a learning disability, which is a powerful combo. I know if I had a friend who just gifted me multi-million dollar businesses that allowed me to do whatever I wanted…I would be an idiotic terror.
I tutor, and I’ve ran into lots of rich boys with disabilities who learn that they can get their parents to pay for their homework to be done for them (or the mom does it herself…). Fired a client because he had too much of a “reading disability” to do the required reading for the paper we were writing - previous tutors would write his papers for him!
Yep. I have a position at a teaching hospital where we teach residents from all over the country. The ones from pay to play private schools are always subpar both in their education and especially in people skills. Most of them drop, or pivot to administration positions where they don’t have to associate with everyday people.
