Probably shamed into going since he moaned about missing it.

Good on the President that he could see and be with his son on his graduation day. Congrats, Barron!

Former US president Donald Trump, pictured with son Barron in 2020, complained that he would be unable to attend the graduation ceremony -- but ultimately was granted a trial recess

Another example of Trump benefiting from the US two-tier injustice system.

Many on trial for non-violent crimes are never granted a trial recess or bail even to visit dying relatives.

Well, no. It was just a bad look on the judge and thankfully, the heavy pressure made him come to his senses.

Many on trial for non-violent crimes are never granted a trial recess or bail even to visit dying relatives.

Most former Presidents were never indicted on bogus sham charges.

Former president and former First Lady have lifetime Secret Service protection but not their children. Will Trump hire security when Barron starts university?

None of his siblings attended.

Barron intends to go to college after graduation, possibly at the Republican tycoon's alma mater, the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania.

Three of Trump's older children -- Ivanka, Don Jr. and Tiffany -- all went to Wharton, 

I’m sure there has been no special admissions treatment given to these elites, just as their father was admitted for his brilliant academic credentials.

Probably.

Happens sometimes.

Trying hard to dig for something and you’re hitting concrete now, relax. Lol

Given his father will soon be Leavenworth bound, he's going to need it...

That will never happen.

well, the first high school graduation he attended of any of the 5 kids. if he didn't, he'd have been in big trouble with the judge.

great student? no honors tassel on the lad.

Happens a LOT in the Trump family.

You mean Donald Trump actually graduated top of his class as he has repeatedly claimed?

Here we go…lol

Well, the blowback on the judge would have been off the charts. He’s reputation outside of NYC is already demolished, he definitely didn’t want to go that route with the kid

great student? no honors tassel on the lad.

Had no idea you knew his grades.

Projecting as usual, calm down Plastic.

Don’t know, don’t care, Biden claimed he graduated top of his class in law school…ok, whatever…

Nice to see the President out and about.

Three security guards 24/7 for Barron will be expensive and will isolate him from many of the other students.

-1 ( +2 / -3 )

"Who will explain for me, to my wonderful son, Barron, who is a GREAT Student at a fantastic School, that his Dad will likely not be allowed to attend his Graduation Ceremony," Trump thundered in a social media post.

"Son, I won't be able to attend your graduation because I had unprotetcted sex with a porn star I groomed whilst mommy was at home taking care of baby you and daddy had to pay her lots of illegal money not to talk about it"

You see Donald, it's not that hard.

Most former presidents weren't mob bosses who never earned an honest dollar in their lives.

You don’t know that, he wouldn’t be the first kid that was rich and had 24/7 security.

Don’t know, don’t care

Which is why you were howling for Obama to release his school transcripts back in 2011.

Trump was, by all accounts we have, an absolutely terrible student. One professor at Wharton repeatedly called Trump the “dumbest” kid he had ever taught.

autocorrect is insane.

Ivanka was the only Trump to graduate with honors from Wharton. So she was an honor student, while her siblings and father were horror students.

What on earth are you talking about? Lol

Ok, but even if that were true, he built an empire. Obama….government, Chicago style politics, had some books written…So Trump built and Obama…just because he’s Obama. The result, both have money, both found ways to make it, whether it’s through shady politics or back door business dealings, in the end, it’s all about the dead Benjamin’s

You mean, the Biden voter and donor….nice example.

Ivanka was the only Trump to graduate with honors from Wharton. So she was an honor student, while her siblings and father were horror students

And Jill Biden calls herself a doctor…lol. Honestly, I don’t care. Once you reach the Presidency, nothing else matters, the insults are pretty much nothing

his daddy built an empire. he just bankrupted everything he started.

And making that money back, new deals abound, that’s the great thing with making money.
