Donald Trump to Be Witness in Trump University Fraud Case

Donald Trump to Be Witness in Trump University Fraud Case


“…………..According to court documents filed last week in federal court, Donald Trump will have to appear as a witness in a case involving Trump University (now called the The Trump Entrepreneur Initiative), an online education company that purports to train students in the art of real estate management…………..


“………..The issue could plague the Trump campaign simply because of optics, however. These suits accuse Trump defrauding customers of thousands of dollars for what turned out to be worthless courses. And the California suit is not the only case that has been brought against Trump for his involvement in Trump University. Back in 2013 New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman filed a civil suit against Trump for his involvement with what Schinderman called an “illegal” educational institution.”…………..

Trump University: Donald Trump to Be Witness in Fraud Case - Fortune

I wonder if this “fraud testimony” might come to “rain on Mr. Trumps parade” like the HRC email scandal has…………TV coverage of his testimony during the campaign season is a fit come-down for the truth challenged blowhard…….

Interesting story.
Really disappointing that Trump would involve himself in something like this. Looks very amateurish.
Would I consider voting for Hillary because of this? Hell no. She makes $250,000 for 30 minute speeches at Goldman Sachs corporate events.
Hillary isn't morally superior to anyone.

Are you jealous because that Wall Street money did not go to a Republican? Because the money would have gone to someone. I see no evidence of quid pro quo in Hillary's case and she will not kill Dodd -Frank like any Republican would.

Have you seen all the junk Trump has put his name on? This is exactly what one would expect from a Trump university

I am a Trump supporter, but who in their right mind would think a degree from Trump U would get them anything but an eyebrow raise at a job interview?

I think it speaks negatively on their judgement.

In NYS you cannot call yourself a University without state approval and registration and issuing of a special education non-profit corporation, as I seem to recall..........So Trump was fraudulent right out of the blocks.......... and NYS is real touchy about folks who try to skirt the rules.........

I agree 100%. I got my first college degree from Excelsior College in Albany. Part of the education this Texas kid got was learning to eat pork chops baked with applesauce too.

You wouldn't charge $250,000 for a speech if you could?



Say, you haven't happened to post anything here expressing anger at anything like, say, Obama's references to Romney's tax rate, etc? Conservatives typically express great umbrage when people criticize wealth. But if it's Hillary, well, we can slam her for earning money.

People have typically criticized Republicans for being greedy, in bed with banks, wall st etc.
Modern mainstream Democrats are just as greedy and in bed with big business.

Let me ask you, why vote for Hillary if she's in bed with big business?
If your answer is "because she's not Trump" then you really should stay home on election day.

Valid point. As a registered Republican, I would support Hillary over Trump for a number of reasons: her experience as a Senator, her extensive knowledge of international affairs (including her "on-the-job" training as Secretary of State), her pragmatic approach to solving domestic problems and her most valueable campaign asset (her husband and mentor).

As for Trump, to paraphrase Oscar Wilde, he seems to be someone who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.

Umm isn't the fbi actually investigating the Clinton foundation for just such things. Dodd-Frank was a mess and should be killed. even Barney Frank admitted he madea mistake with it.

No they are not and I was addressing Sanders fans not right wingers. You guys think the bankers are Saints because they have all that money not realizing that it is not their money in many cases. Gambling with other peoples money is nice work if you can get it.
