Donald Trump To Be Witness In Federal Case Accusing Him Of Fraud (Trump University)
CNN Money ^ | February 25, 2016 | Chris Isidore

Posted on 02/26/2016 9:32:42 AM PST by TexasCajun

Donald Trump is slated to appear as a witness in the case charging him and the former Trump University with fraud.

The plaintiffs and defense attorneys in the case both have listed Trump on their witness lists recently submitted to the court.

While a trial date has yet to be set, it could take place in late spring or early summer. The final pretrial conference in the case is scheduled for May 6.

The case was initially filed nearly six years ago in federal court in Southern California.

It is one of three suits that Trump University faces, including one by the New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman, who accused the school of being a "bait-and-switch scheme."

You’re right. But he is. And if he’s found guilty/liable, you want your President to be a convicted fraudster?

The article was horrible, there are three suits... some civil one criminal with NY State. Misleading headline. I am not a Trump person, but that doesn’t mean I support misleading headlines on anyone.

Trump will be in the courthouse more than on the campaign trail when Hillary lets her dogs out. The media will crucify him then.


And of course Trump just rolls over and takes it /s

Hillary may be in for a surprise if it goes the way you predict. Trump has shown he does not “go gentle into that good night.”

When this tactic has been used in the past, it was vital to first demonize and isolate the target so they would not have any public support. As we have seen, the part has failed. Every attempt to demonize Trump has made his support stronger, not weaker.

Hillary like to blame a fantasy “right wing conspiracy” on her problems, but here, we can see the plotting of a real left wing conspiracy.

And besides, Hillary may be in another court house too busy defending herself to cast stones at Trump.

It's a civil case. He's not facing conviction, dude.

You are right, the headline was misleading. Sorry if my post came across as harsh. Trump has plenty of warts, but I am glad he is generating excitement on our side for once.

Donald was doing those scammed people a favor, actually....by teaching them how to deal with adversity (being conned)...

and how to adjust to poverty (Trump Trickle Up System of Wealth Accumulation)...

and also how to become humble due to personal financial setbacks...

like the Donald. [cough, choke]

After nearly 8 years of lawlessness on the part of people in high office it is not as if everyone is all that concerned.

Just the opposite, actually. Because of having to witness seven plus years of lawlessness by Obama, many (if not most) Americans are FTFU with this crap and expect, no demand, a radical change away from that lawlessness. Electing Trump wouldn't be that change, but it would indeed be 'radical'.

Yeah, according to Trump, crooked politicians should get sued too for taking advantage of the "little guys," like him!

Sorry, Trump cheated the young and gullible, by selling them a "snake oil education!"

Trump needs to be in some country club prison for white collar criminals instead of being a presidential candidate!

I know...but I’m not a lawyer and was drawing a blank for the proper word. That’s why I put “guilty/liable”...point still stands, though.

“If Trump wasn’t running for President, none of this would attract notice.”

True. But it was still a scam to separate gullible people from their money.

Trump is REALLY good at scamming gullible people.

Despite the bluster, it seems most of the innuendo and accusations here are most likely inaccurate and groundless.
