Trump: People 'don't really know' what junior colleges are
Trump apparently doesn’t know the difference between a vocational school and a junior college.
From a March 3 speech to the National Association of Counties Legislative Conference:
DONALD TRUMP: I love the name vocational school.
When I was growing up we used to use – “Edison Vocational School” – where they train them for, you know, cars, and for bricklaying, and for plumbing, and all the things that there’s tremendous talent involved.
And it was incredible. You had – you don’t see that. Now they call them junior colleges. And you don’t really, as junior colleges, you don’t really know what that means.
What is a junior college? What does it mean? So we’re getting back to the word “vocational.”
I thought it was very important. And it’s something that they’re very proud of and I would be very proud also.
