All that Trump hate's gonna burn you up inside boy!
It wasn’t a real university, obviously. Most of the “teachers” had no real estate experience but were instead high pressure sales people the likes of which you’d see selling timeshares. The “teacher” with the most real estate experience had just had his real estate biz go bankrupt. Each class was nothing more than a session to sell the next more expensive class. They taught the students how to game the system so that they could qualify for lines of credit that they couldn’t afford, often times as much as $30k. These weren’t rich people. Many of them were retirees looking to make some extra scratch.
Texas was about to sue Trump U until Trump swooped and and gave the Governor a large check for his re-election campaign.
After scamming people out of $25 million he wound up have to pay it all back.
Like I said, he’s always been a criminal.
Forget it, he's rolling.

It's got all the makings of a conspiracy theory.
After Hillary Clinton became secretary of state, Bill Clinton received $17.6 million in payments from a for-profit university. Since that time, another organization with a connection to that university received almost $90 million in grants from an agency that's part of the State Department.
Critics of the Clintons have cried foul. But is there really something shady going on?
There is no shortage of connections between the Clintons and Laureate International Universities. Laureate is a for-profit university -- the same kind Hillary Clinton has railed against for saddling students with huge debts.
"[Students] find little support once they actually enroll, or they graduate and discover that, when it comes to finding a job, their degree isn't worth what they thought," she told an audience last year.
Laureate has about one million students worldwide, mostly in Latin America, with five schools in the United States.
Laureate has faced investigations in Brazil over whether students were getting what they paid for, and in Chile concerning its for-profit status. U.S. students have complained the school failed to deliver on its promised degree programs.
In addition, three of the five schools Laureate operates in the United States are under what the U.S. Department of Education calls "heightened cash monitoring" because of potential problems with its "financial responsibility." The school told CNN it disagrees with the government's methodology.
Now do Joe Biden and or Bill Clinton or for that matter Obama all of whom never made a dime until they were elected to public office and are now worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
If he didn’t know this was a huge scam why did he make a large contribution to the TX governor to squash the lawsuit headed his way?
I'm think Trump was an idiot for over extending the use of his name to grifters. But being real, those grifters were not the Communist Party of China. The chicoms gave $1.5 billion to Hunter Biden because of his Warren Buffet like investment record. When you grow up and can rationally examine the behavior of a presidential candidate will be the day the hell freezes over or PIPS has a child with bubba. Which ever comes first.

Long before Trump University fell in the crosshairs of Democratic presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton, one of Donald Trump's fellow Republicans drew a bead on the now-defunct school: Texas Gov. Greg Abbott.
Abbott, then the state's attorney general, opened an investigation into the real-estate seminar business in 2010 raising many of the issues now reverberating in the white-hot race for the White House. Trump University ultimately closed up shop in Texas, leaving in its wake an untold number of people like Steven Branton of Mesquite — former students who were enticed by the Trump brand, only to discover a program wrought with high-pressure sales tactics and unfulfilled promises.
"It was just nonsense — I don't know how else to say it," Branton said, recalling how one of the seminars he went to seemed to take advantage of attendees who were not as financially able to afford them as he was at the time. "There were people in that room — I guarantee you, they were talking about giving him everything they had."
Trump has fiercely defended the school against persistent criticisms from Clinton, who said Wednesday the billionaire "is trying to scam America the way he scammed all those people at Trump University." He has said he will prevail in class-action lawsuits against the business and on Thursday took his confidence a step further, pledging to re-open Trump University if he becomes president.
In Texas, the Trump University probe was never fully fleshed out after the school quickly pulled out of the state. But in at least one letter to Trump's attorneys, Abbott's office said it found the promises the school was making to its students "virtually impossible to achieve."
A former deputy chief of Abbott's consumer protection division, John Owens, claims that his bosses nixed a request to sue Trump University for illegal business practices. A memo dated May 11, 2010, and provided to the Tribune and other news organizations, shows that Owens and his colleagues wanted to ask Trump University for a $5.4 million settlement.
"It was swept under the rug, and the consumers were left with no one to go to bat for them," Owens told The Texas Tribune.
"The Texas Attorney General's office investigated Trump U, and its demands were met — Trump U was forced out of Texas and consumers were protected," responded Abbott spokesman Matt Hirsch.
More than three years after Trump University effectively ceased operations in Texas, Trump made two contributions to Abbott's gubernatorial campaign, one for $25,000 in July 2013 and the other for $10,000 in May 2014. To this day, the donations to Abbott represent Trump's only substantial foray into Texas politics — and enduring fodder for Abbott critics like the state Democratic Party, which charged Thursday that the governor is "on the corrupt Trump payroll."
Now while we probably all know that having a failed businessman "hand pick" instructors is a recipe for disaster, some people took that statement as Daddy intended they should. It was a lie.
