Yep, here we go again.

DuPont is surely proud, the ol' Teflon is still working.

The Kool-Aid's doing pretty well too getting folks to love a con-man, gonna be pure entertainment when they eventually wake-up.
So far, the OP really hasnt cited anything of relevance other than Trump University is being sued, which everyone knows...

Ask the plaintiffs . . . they will surely tell you that they could have settled but they chose not to. Allegedly, the instructors would stand next to the students as they are told to complete the satisfaction survey. Someone is clearly lyin' and we shall see who shall prevail.

1. The training industry calls those forms "smile sheets", typically filled out at the end of class be people who haven't had a chance to put the class info to work yet. These sheets typically have very high ratings on them, and are not actually related to much that is useful for evaluating the effectiveness of the training. If followup is done after a student had the chance to apply the new info, the evaluation has more meaning.

2. trump lies about things, so saying that '98% positive approval' is probably a lot of hyperbole on his part. On a 5 point scale, anything 3 or greater can be considered 'positive'. It is kinda like the 70% unfavorable that trump has among certain demographics.

But you're right, other than that, nothing relevant. Because when Trump lies it doesn't count. At least not to the cult.
Actually it shows that he believed the people picked were "terrific" people..

These are the very same idiots who run around babbling that Clinton lies about emails, white water, dodging sniper fire, videos started Benghazi etc....dont matter.

I have no respect for them at all..

So this is of bigger concern. I'm assuming he has used this 98% figure in court, so you are tacking on a perjury charge too?

He admitted in his deposition that he wasn't involved in the process at all, even though he lied in the pitch and claimed he was going to hand pick each and every one of them. When he was asked under oath he couldn't name a single one of the instructors. Not one. So how would he know if they were terrific or not?

He's a con man. And you are one of his many marks.

The legal system will decide who is right.

I personally would not pay a dollar, much less thousands, for a Trump University real estate course. Millions of people pay such amounts for 'degrees' from for profit colleges. I also would not pay tens of thousands for gender studies, black diaspora studies, lesbian dance history, etc. Those who choose these degrees made a choice. They owe the money to these schools for their 'education'.

You think it's "bad ass" to rip off desperate people? Pathetic.

Trump definitely has the sociopath vote locked up.

Trump actually does settle on occasion. He settled over Trump SoHo and returned the money to the people he had defrauded.

Trump may like to play hardball but he (or his lawyers) clearly get a bit scared when things like "fraud" and "criminal investigation" start getting tossed around.
