Some students said they were more than satisfied and successful. Guessing it boils down to the effort you put into it - same as everything.

People are not stupid (except maybe those who believe they can make millions in real estate right away by taking a Trump course.) We won't know what the result of the lawsuit is until it's finished. That is between the students and TU - and for sure it's promotion is politically motivated. The sound bites reported in the media are surely slanted with a liberal bias as is everything focused on demeaning his character. Not to mention "conservative" reporters who are hell bent on ruining his run because their candidate(s) didn't fare well in the primary. I suspect he will be exonerated when ALL the facts come out.

This does nothing to dissuade me one iota in supporting Trump over Hillary. No contest.

I'm sure this will get more play as things go on. Can't wait for the fireworks and loaded up on popcorn.
You're the first Trump supporter I've seen who is actually defending Trump University.


Some advice: It's better to ignore that topic. By trying to defend it, you come off as a real syncophant.


He's a con man.

He is only on the ballot in 12 states, pretty much useless. At least Gary Johnson is on the ballot for all 50 states.

No, he was endorsing Sponge Bob and wanted to send everyone to the bottom of the sea to meet him.

Exactly what conservative principle does that sort of thinking represent? The principle that my feelings are more important than the good of the country? Exactly which of the Founders laid out that principle?
Think about this another way — in the form of a Ted Cruz Syllogism:
1.) I promised to support the GOP nominee
2.) But that pledge is no longer valid because Trump criticized my family
3.) Thus, Hillary Clinton should become president
4.) And the cause of the freedom will be advanced.
Huh?
So you would be ok supporting someone who embarrassed, humiliated and insulted your father and your wife in front of a global audience? You are a poor excuse for a man if so. Not only would I not support them, I would probably be arrested for assault if I ever saw them again.

if Cruz couldn't handle that for the good of the country, he shouldn't run for President....that is call putting your feelings above the good of the country.


"He called my wife ugly"....."he said my father knew Lee Harvey Oswald"....booooooo!!! whaaaaaaa!!.......Cruz puts his feelings above the good of the party and country.

His version of freedom is to get Hillary elected.....makes sense.....lol


what a pu$$y!

LOL!! Too, too funny. Your defense of Trump's very obvious and soon to be litigated con is to immediately pivot to the Clintons. The last refuge of the Trump cult.

Or perhaps I should say the only refuge. They obviously have absolutely nothing positive to say about their own guy, as the last three days have shown us. How utterly predictable.

Donald Trump is a pathetic fraud, con man, criminal and a coward. He is neither good for the Republican party or the country. He should be sharing a prison cell with Hillary right now.

No way.

Cruz is not for things like gay marriage, open borders, abortion, legalization of drugs, etc.

Did you read the actual lawsuit and filings? I did. Do you know exactly what Trump University was selling? I do. I feel badly for people who feel they have been taken - but guessing it's mainly their responsibility to know what they are getting into. Anyone who watches Judge Judy should know that.

Do I like the concept of TU? No. Is what they did illegal - don't think so.
