So the scandal is that a FOR PROFIT business had a sales plan to maximize sales...

okay

Have you ever been in the board room for ANY SALES EXECUTIVES in any business of any industry before?  Same strategies are discussed

It was a scam for sure.

I dont mind a for profit business, but trying to fool people by using "University" and his name was always sketchy in my mind.

Funny thing though, the guy has always been a peddler of marginal products....I remember thinking who in their mind would spend any extra money for Trump water...or so many other slick products he came up with to solicit.

WSC

Are you aware that over 10,000 students were enrolled at Trump U... and the class action has 6 that have joined the suit.  6 out of 10,000

Are you also aware that the judge that is driving this class action from California is an ardent Clinton supporter and he has donated a fortune to her money laundering scheme and her campaigns?

So I guess you can have some fun with this as a talking point in which half of the story gets told... my money is on Trump when he says he will beat it.

Blah blah blah blah....Clinton bad, Trump good, I know you are stuck playing that crap over and over and over.

My comment was based on my opinion on Trump U and his other lame products/services. 

It has been public knowledge their practices well before Trump got involved in this race, so my comments are based on what is already out there from an information standpoint.

My opinions were formed long long ago, not because he is a current politician-to-be

Perhaps sportsfan is a graduate... Lol

I think tho we should have tolerance for diverisfied it that some people like being scammed as gullible fools who appear to have absolutely no clue or any connection with reality.  Can't we respect his choice to have such a vigilant and compulsive ignorance?

Huh?

I'm backing you up lol

Saying your perspective while be it ignorant should be tolerated.

You really are completely clueless aren't you?  Well at least you post like you are. 

Trying to help my friend

You would could consider how sue happy trump has been historically that graduates from trump university would be suing everything and anything possible like maniacs emulating their leader. 

Seems like he did a better job brainwashing the GOP majority than the students in his own university.

Good one ..
According to the rollingstone article

 Instead of the hand-picked instructors Trump promised, the seminars were delivered by motivational speakers, often without degrees, and sometimes with criminal records.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) “is once again taking aim at Donald Trump, calling him a ‘fraudster-in-chief’ whose top goal is lining his own pockets,” the AP reports.

“Warren says Trump put together an army of salespeople to focus on how much money prospective students could come up with before pushing them to max out their credit cards and fork over tens of thousands of dollars.”

I bet the "fraudster-in-chief" would love some Warren peace.
