Better Business Bureau denies sending Trump fax in middle of debate

The Better Business Bureau fired back at a report that it sent Donald Trump a fax in the middle of Thursday night’s GOP debate showing Trump University with a A rating.

“A video released by Independent Journal implies that BBB sent a fax in the middle of last night’s Republican debate, which we did not. The BBB Business Review of Trump Entrepreneur Initiative (formerly Trump University) has shown ‘No Rating’ continually since September 2015,” it wrote in a statement.

The video in question showed Trump hand the debate moderators the fax during a commercial break but it was unable to be used as only the closing statements of the debate were left.

“Better Business Bureau just sent it. It just came in. I just got it,” he said in the clip published by the Independent Journal Review.

I noticed the BBB did not deny the “A” rating that Trump handed over to Megyn Kelly.

Remember it was Megyn Kelly that said Trump’s school had a “D” and a “F” rating. She never corrected it because it would ruin the smear.

The BBB only said they did not fax it.

THE “A” rating is the only thing that matters, and the BBB is not denying it.

Again folks this is Real Estate School. It did not guarantee 100% of people will be successful in Real Estate.

Do you call all colleges scams since 100% of the graduates don’t always have success in life?

Graduating is one part. You still have to do the leg work.

No, but I’m sure someone will see your question and pipe up to explain the evil influence he had on it.

Who is at a BBB office at 10:00 at night, just waiting to fax information during a Presidentail debate? Pure ridiculousness.

How would one part of a business bureau know what every other part is doing?

How would the BBB know where to send a fax DURING a debate?

The BBB wouldn't know their ars from a hole in the ground anyway. I don't remember who sent it but the point is Trump got a A rating. It doesn't mean a damn thing who sent it. Ignorant rotten communists Democrats and the communists GOPe would stoop to anything except the truth. He got a A rating.

I once worked for a company that produces Poultry, Pork, Beef and prepared foods like chicken nuggets.
Once upon a time they decided to try seafood. (Bad Idea)
It was obvious after a short time that the production and market for seafood was incredibly different than any other source of protein. (Not sticking with what they do well)
The company ran away from the seafood market as fast as they could. (Good business)

That company has never tried to open a for profit ‘school’.
That company has never tried to sell vodka, beer or anything like it.

Why? Is it because they couldn’t? Or is it because it’s not a market they know anything about and have no competence?

A good business knows where it’s core competencies are and exploits them.
A bad business grasps at straws and hopes to find one made of gold.

Before you jump on the ‘Trump is a god of business’...
The company I was talking about feeds over a billion people every day, employs over 100 thousand, provides for the needy and has a natural disaster team ready to feed families and volunteers in areas devastated by tornadoes, floods etc... And still makes billions every year.

I don’t know many businesses that get over a 98% approval rating.

There are too many negative people out there.

So IMO, your comments were reasoned, except for the conclusion.

Trump’s school was putting out a good product. It was making money. The students were happy, and many were taking additional courses and complimenting the school staff.

I watched a video presentation on this the other day, and at the end of it, the idea Trump was involved in some massive fraud was shot to heck.

I’ve thought all along his side should be able to present it’s case before folks came to a conclusion.

That presentation more than satisfied my curiosity on it, and in the direction I expected it to.

“Trump’s school was putting out a good product. It was making money. The students were happy, and many were taking additional courses and complimenting the school staff.”

So, what happened?

Hey, not like some Trump supporting pieces aren’t out here more than once or ridiculously placed in Breaking News until a moderator takes care of things. I searched and didn’t find the article I posted.

We will find out.

The video did address the plaintiffs, and it wasn’t very complimentary of them.

Evidently some had signed cards saying they were very happy with the program. I believe (but I may be wrong) that some had taken additional courses too.

I’m not sure.

There may have been a downturn in real estate, and the courses became unpopular.

Like Hannity said, it was a failed business venture out of the billions of dollars he made on successful jobs.

But it went to an A- after he disputed the D- Megyn put up on the screen. I hate that woman.
