Washington, Jackson, Van Buren, Taylor, Fillmore, Lincoln, and Grover Cleveland got a high school (ish) level of education.

Andrew Johnson got tutored while he was an apprentice.

In modern times, I think only republicans have not gone further than undergrad (Reagan, HW Bush, Trump), going back to Roosevelt (FD not Teddy).

I'm not the person you've been replying to.

I'm just answering with who has been less educated, which is decidedly different than how much of a dumbass they are. A position Trump holds a massive lead on compared to any other president in history (quite possibly any "leader" in history)

I know how to read usernames, thanks.

I'm asking if paying for a diploma really counts as "education."

OK, so you've just decided to be an ass because I answered a question.

Noted.
