If I had known about this institution for higher learning while I was paying beaucoup dorm bucks and huge amounts of tuition with my student loan at The University of Miami which painstakingly took me years to pay back, a no brainer, I would've studied here instead.

The University of Puerto Rico at Cayey was founded in 1967 as a regional school inside an old military camp. In 1969 it became a college and then acquired autonomy on April 2, 1982, following a Council of Higher Education resolution.

President Donald Trump, fresh off patching up his ties with China, reassured Japan's leader that the US will defend them. These pronouncements is another shift toward a mainstream Trump stance on foreign policy toward Asia. His new committed to Japan security is another change from previous campaign rhetoric. http://a.msn.com/01/en-us/AAmPrUW?ocid=st

Trump welcomed Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe with a brotherly hug and warm words of admiration. He dropped previously hard-charging rhetoric during a summit. http://cnn.it/2lxMsuS

Comprehend... فهمیدن

‘Trust me, I'm like a smart person’ US President Donald J. Trump boasts he can 'comprehend very well, better than I think almost anybody' and here is the point. "The Point" https://youtu.be/hHgj1uQ5FH8

Comprehend through its Latin etymology, from comprehendere, cum: with + prehendere: to grab also has a spatial connotation, like encompass, by which one's thought surrounds a particular topic, like the hand an object, seeing all aspects and limits of a concept, but indeed, without maybe peeking inside like with true understanding.

SUCCESSFUL?

For someone who claims to have never been wrong about anything and to always be a winner, actions speak louder than words and are showing the world otherwise.

Success does not come from practicing discrimination against a group of people, or lying and cheating others out of their hard work. It comes from hard work determination and sacrifice. Same meaning in any language... Successful, exitoso, 成功, ناجح ...etc.

Three strikes... 3-0. The 9th US Circuit Court of Appeals unanimously refused to restore President Trump’s travel ban. The judges said the Trump administration had failed to justify putting the order into effect while the courts consider its lawfulness.
