Donald Trump was a POW. A Prisonor of Wharton that is! In Funny or Die's new black and white video, the team mocks Trump's challenging years at the University of Pennsylvania's prestigious Wharton School, which allowed him to stay out of the Vietnam War.

A menacing voice over explains, "How Donald Trump got stuck at Wharton was a mix of bad timing, bad luck and a family friend in the admissions office." It continues, "Instead of being free to fight for his nation, Trump was forced to stay on his college campus and slog through the swampy minefields of hotel/resort management. It was torture. Trump would be forced to stay awake for 45 minutes at a time in what were called classes."

Watch the video.
