I would guess two things. One is that people like you assume that anyone with a southern accent is dumb. And i'd suspect that years of hard drinking were not good to him.

Answer 5

The wealthy get away with everything. Even murder

Answer 6

Bush poops things that are a lot smarter than AOC is and she graduated. Never has an ivy league education cost more or been worth less.
Or did you mean the RICH DEMOCRATS who just got caught bribing their kids into colleges ?

Answer 7

Didn't old fossil Bush Sr pull the strings so Bush jr didn't risk his worthless neck defending his country or being selflessly patriotic?

So why wouldn't fossil Bush Sr buy jr the educational outcome!
Not much different from socialite Serena from Gossip girl being courted by the university of her hard studying friends choice.

Money opens doors!
Some call it corruption. Some power! Semantics!
