    How did Chris Cuomo get into Yale?
    His father was New York's Democrat Governor, Mario Cuomo.

    How did Dante deBlasio get into Yale?
    His father is Bill deBlasio, incompetent mayor of New York City.

    Three current Democrat US Senators also sent children to Yale:

    Michael Bennett
    Amy Klobushar
    Sheldon Whitehouse

    Several Democrat Senators sent their kids to Harvard

    Richard Blumenthal
    Bob Menendez
    Chuck Schumer sent both his kids to Harvard

    Also,
    Barack Obama sent one of his kids to Harvard
    as did former Democrat NY Governor Elliot Spitzer

    Al Gore sent 4 kids to Harvard
    NY Governor Andrew Cuomo sent one of his kids to Harvard, but sent 2 kids
    to 'highly selective' Brown

    Bill Clinton sent Chelsea to 'impossible to be accepted', Stanford

    Georgetown boasts offspring of prominent Democrats like Biden, Pelosi, Kennedy

    Progressives care about the stratification of society and white privilege as long as they can cook the books to make sure their family ends up in the top stratum by virtue of rigging college admissions against the taxpayers who pick up the tab.

    In short, the citizens who used their own money to game the college admissions faced a judge. These Democrats used taxpayer money to elevate their family members at the expense of the children of those picking up the tab have not been so much as censured.

    There is privilege in our society. It's Democrat privilege.

    Tucker Carlson was spot on in that clip, which is par for the course. I've watched it multiple times before. I've used this clip to point out that the clear loopholes that rich whites, well-connected whites, or whites with political clout, especially Democrat political clout, have in bypassing affirmative action, so those of their posterity don't have to deal with the yoke that that they have forced other whites to endure, which is the textbook definition of virtue signaling. I've particularly narrowed down on Chuck Schumer sending both of his kids to Harvard, something that is astronomically improbable for the run-of-the-mill white family; and one of his kids actually went to Yale, too, which doubles the unlikely odds. Clearly, there is corruption. There is a two-tiered system that our politicians have set up. Yes, it was mostly by Democrats, and Democrats mostly support affirmative action policies; but some Republicans have also defended this corruption, too, whether out of gullibility or intentional complicity. I wish more Americans can see that clip.

    There is a way to fix it, but the people who write the laws benefit from this system so...It'll never be fixed. But the federal government should restrict all federal aid to any college or university that doesn't base admissions strictly off standardized testing.

    Tucker is a vain buffoon who fancies he can become the heir to trump.
    He's a con but lacks the art to make it big.

    The people who write the laws have qualified immunity, so they can cheat the taxpayer with impunity.

    Pelosi walked out of the shut-down-retail meeting and told her husband to buy Amazon --- making a killing at the expense of taxpayers.

    A decade ago, she held up swipe fee legislation while her husband held shares in the VISA IPO.

    How did Trump get into college?
    His niece said he paid someone to take his tests and daddy was a millionaire.

    Shall we start listing all the Republican's who made it into Ivy League schools on daddy's dime?
    This is a moronic thread.

    Carlson was quick to point out Chelsea Clinton, Chris Cuomo, Malia Obama, the Gore children, among others but we noticed he didn’t reference any children of prominent Republicans who too received preferential treatment, like, say, Meghan McCain. Meghan attended Columbia University where she majored in art history. Now we happen to believe that Meghan is a very smart individual (Team Meghan!) but you bet the fact that she happens to be the daughter of the late Senator John McCain influenced her admission. Or how about the Bushes? Barbara Bush, daughter of President George W. Bush, went to Yale. Heck, her father, who too was the child of a prominent Republican, went there as well. Carlson likened all four Gore children earning admission to Harvard to getting struck by lightning every day for a year. Well, lightning strikes the children of Republicans, too, Tucker.

    When you displace him as the host of the highest rated cable news show, you will be qualified to criticize him. Until then you're just whining about his popularity.

    His father wasn't promising Ivy League schools taxpayer money to cheat the taxpayers they confiscated the money from.

    You may want to do some research on the SAT test story. It's been debunked.

    It's a fair point, and one that Tucker should probably have emphasized, since he's usually pretty good about pointing our Republican corruption. But yes, the same thing applies to the Republican side as well.

    For all the bleating about inequality from the left, here is an example that they don't want to fix.

    You are correct this thread should be in the Whining Toddlers Section if we had one here.

    Start with Republicans who sent 4 kids to Ivy League schools with the promise of taxpayer money, then we can lower the bar to 3, then 2.

    How did Dirty Donald get into U.of Pa's Wharton School as well as Iwanker and Dirty Don Jr? How did G.W Bush get into Yale?? You will find as many politically connected right wingers kids getting into prestigious colleges

    So, you lost the debate and have to lower the discourse to attacking a young woman who accomplished more in her life than you will ever accomplish even if you live to be 120. A young woman working for free for you and your fellow Marxist ingrates. Have you ever believed in anything enough to donate your time and sacrifice your income for it? Meet the Trumps.

    I guarantee you neither she nor her husband are working for free and neither is her father.They have cost taxpayers more in 3 and a half years than any family that ever preceded them in the White House.
