Over the past few weeks, I have watched as the media has reported one inaccuracy after another concerning the ongoing litigation involving Trump University. There are several important facts the public should know and that the media has failed to report.
Throughout the litigation my attorneys have continually demonstrated that students who participated in Trump University were provided a substantive, valuable education based upon a curriculum developed by professors from Northwestern University, Columbia Business School, Stanford University and other respected institutions. And, the response from students was overwhelming. Over a five year period, more than 10,000 paying students filled out surveys giving the courses high marks and expressing their overwhelming satisfaction with Trump University’s programs. For example:
Former student Tarla Makaeff, the original plaintiff in the litigation, not only completed multiple surveys rating Trump University’s three-day seminar “excellent” in every category, but also praised Trump University’s mentorship program in a glowing 5 plus minute video testimonial. When asked “how could Trump University help to meet [her] goals”, she simply stated “[c]ontinue to offer great classes.” Once the plaintiffs’ lawyers realized how disastrous a witness she was, they asked to have her removed from the case. Over my lawyers’ objections, the judge granted the plaintiffs’ motion, but allowed the case to continue.
Art Cohen, a lead plaintiffs in the litigation, completed a survey in which he not only rated Trump University’s three-day seminar “excellent” in virtually every category, but went so far as to indicate that he would “attend another Trump University seminar” and even “recommend Trump University seminars to a friend.” When asked how Trump University could improve the seminar, Mr. Cohen’s only suggestion was to “[h]ave lunch sandwiches brought in” and make the lunch break 45 minutes.
Former student Bob Giullo, who has been critical of Trump University in numerous interviews and negative advertisements from my political opponents, also expressed his satisfaction, rating Trump University’s programs “excellent” in every category. When asked how Trump University could improve its programs, Mr. Giullo simply asked that students be provided “more comfortable chairs.”
Indeed, these are just a few of literally thousands of positive surveys, all of which can be viewed online at www.98percentapproval.com.
For those students who decided that Trump University’s programs were not for them, the company had a generous refund policy, offering a full refund to any student who asked for their money back within 3 days of signing up for a program or by the end of the first day of any multi-day program, whichever came later.
Normally, legal issues in a civil case would be heard in a neutral environment. However, given my unique circumstances as nominee of the Republican Party and the core issues of my campaign that focus on illegal immigration, jobs and unfair trade, I have concerns as to my ability to receive a fair trial.
I am fighting hard to bring jobs back to the United States. Many companies – like Ford, General Motors, Nabisco, Carrier – are moving production to Mexico. Drugs and illegal immigrants are also pouring across our border. This is bad for all Americans, regardless of their heritage.
Due to what I believe are unfair and mistaken rulings in this case and the Judge’s reported associations with certain professional organizations, questions were raised regarding the Obama appointed Judge’s impartiality. It is a fair question. I hope it is not the case.
While this lawsuit should have been dismissed, it is now scheduled for trial in November. I do not intend to comment on this matter any further. With all of the thousands of people who have given the courses such high marks and accolades, we will win this case!
Donald J. Trump
If you don't think you are receiving fair treatment by a judge, there are legal methods for a recusal. If your lawyers have not been successful in their challenges, maybe, just maybe, the judge is being fair and impartial.
ReplyDeleteGo Donald! You are correct about the judge, he is incapable of being fair.
ReplyDeleteThis Mexican (excuse me Mexican-American for you PC pukes) La Raza and Clinton loving judge is incapable of making a fair ruling in this case, his butt should be recused.
ReplyDelete4:26. And why exactly do you believe that?
ReplyDeleteIt's called La Raza, translated the race, google it!
DeleteOK, but Latino is an ethnicity not a race. Think you may have misinterpreted in your zealous bigotry.
DeleteHey Donald, words have meanings. The time to use the old misconstrued spin has long past. Don't you remember your own interviews last weekend and even yesterday? Get a grip.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that's why his lawyers haven't even asked for the judge to recuse.
ReplyDeleteYou are incorrect about legal ways to get the Judge off the case. Only on Appeal after the case is decided.
ReplyDeleteJudges are supposed to not take cases where they have a bias. More and more though Judges fight political battles of the left and do not do so.
One of the Lawyers this Judge allowed has already been convicted of bad action in other Class Action law suits. Just two years ago. That Law Firm gave the Clintons 675K in speaking fees and are heavily into DNC politics. This Judge donates only to Democrats. Well and the RINO ex Gov of California.
What about Hillary University? Known as Laureate Education Inc. a world wide for profit University. Where Bill was Chancellor for I believe four (4) years and the Clinton's received like 16 million dollars. Bill just resigned when Trump University came up. They are trying to hide a another crooked scam. Where is the MSN on this subject? Lets be fair and report this scam of on - line courses. They have several complaints filed against them.
ReplyDeleteAmen! Sticking their heads in the rabbit hole!
DeleteNot following your argument concerned retiree. Did Clinton question a federal judge impartiality based on heritage? Please direct me to that accusation.
ReplyDeleteThe judge is e mamber of La Raza organization, also a known democ-rat supporter and also involved in sponsoring NEVER TRUMP movememt. Conflict of Interest, anyone? No wonder Trump questioning fairness of his trial while this judge pretend to be "bias". MSM will not report any of this, since they are in the bed with Clintons. Now, let's not forget - Nobody lost life because of Trump's actions, but there are many bloody trails and skeletons in Hillary's closet, and those 4 brave Americans in Benghazi got killed by anti-Muslim Video, right, Hilda? I can't wait when Donald brings Monica Lewinski on the stage for inerview!?
ReplyDeleteTRUMP TRAIN 2016
This seems like the most anti Trump commenting I have seen here. Interesting timing!
ReplyDeleteHe may have approached it in a non PC manner and this is why so many people have supported him. This is not any different than what he has been doing. And it sounds like the judge does have some baggage and clearly a clinton supporter. Yes, a judge should recuse himself if there is known conflict which it appears this guy has. Time will tell.
8:52 , call it what you want, but lying, cheating, and stealing is still frowned upon no matter the cover name.
ReplyDeleteDumbass.
The only conflict is within the Republican party and rightfully so. No question this hurts the party and is clearly bigoted. What ishould so difficult to see here?
ReplyDeleteTrump himself will be the demise of the Republican Party
ReplyDeleteTrump made his fortune by being very wise man. His latest comment on judge was made on purpose. His list of potential VP candidates was too big and it just got smaller.I believe he would want running mate who could stab him in the back, when things get rough. Besides got himself more air time on all the liberal MSM networks.
