Why? If Trump was sitting in his courtroom and he said this, he would have gotten slapped with a contempt of court charge and thrown in jail for a few days.

What are these lawsuits about?
Plaintiffs allege that Trump University and Trump violated federal law across the country and state law (in California, Florida, and New York) by promising, but not delivering access to Trump’s real estate techniques taught by “hand-picked” professors at an elite “university,” when in fact Trump was not substantively involved in the Live Events curriculum or selecting the instructors and the New York State Education Department had warned Trump it was unlawful to call it a “university.” Defendants deny the claims and deny wrongdoing.
What do the lawsuits complain about?
In both actions, Plaintiffs allege that Trump University and Trump uniformly marketed and misrepresented their Live Events as offering Trump’s real estate techniques taught by his “hand-picked” professors and adjunct professors at his elite “university.” Plaintiffs allege that these representations were false because Trump had no substantive involvement in the selection of the Live Events instructors or the content of the Live Events and that the New York State Education Department warned Trump not to use the “university” title or to continue operating without a license, but he defied those directives.
The Cohen (Nationwide) Action alleges that the above fraudulent scheme violates the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”) and each member of the Class is entitled to triple the amount of their purchase price of Trump University Live Events.
the business insider cites the case as having began in 2010:
"Trump's attorneys resisted the idea of bringing the six-year-old case to trial while the real estate mogul was in the race,..."
"U.S. District Judge Gonzalo Curiel, an appointee of President Barack Obama, has been eager to schedule a trial in the San Diego case. It was filed in 2010, making it the second-oldest on his docket."
Just more evidence that Trump is not fit to be president.
Nobody is ever doing their job if it affects Trump negatively. They have to be doing it to 'git' him.
He is the most paranoid egocentric candidate ever to have run for president. And if he has nothing to hide, why does he care if the documents are released?
Oh, right, maybe for the same reason he won't release his taxes. He has a lot to hide. He is much more dishonest than any of the other candidates he has been bashing for months.
“I have a judge who is a hater of Donald Trump, a hater. He’s a hater. His name is Gonzalo Curiel,” Mr. Trump said Friday, as the crowd of several thousand booed. “He is not doing the right thing. And I figure, what the hell? Why not talk about it for two minutes?”
Online political website Politico in March posted a 2010 Trump University playbook, which instructed employees to rank students by liquid assets to help determine what kind of course packages they could afford to buy.
A spokeswoman for the Trump campaign declined to comment..."
