Anti-Donald Trump forces are expanding their offensive against the Republican front-runner, releasing a TV advertisement in Florida just days before the state's primary that spotlights a former Trump University salesman who says he was "ashamed" to work for the online school.
In the 60-second ad, the employee, named Cliff, describes receiving "nonstop calls with complaints" from customers unhappy with Trump University services. He also talks about the school's low ratings from the Better Business Bureau.
"I think I walked away from the job because I couldn't sleep at night," Cliff says. "With Donald Trump, you always have to read the fine print."
The commercial is being aired by American Future Fund, an outside conservative group that, along with several others, has been pummeling Trump on the TV airwaves. The group will spend more than $1 million for airtime. Trump University has become a focal point of attacks against the businessman, with Marco Rubio and other rivals citing it as evidence that Trump is a "con man."
Outside groups have spent more than $10 million against Trump in Florida, a key state voting on Tuesday that awards its 99 delegates on a winner-take-all basis.
Do you think he will vote for TRUMP?
What a political whore. I expect we will hear mush more about this individual and life soon.
Find a disgruntled former employee and give him a bunch of money to attack his former employer.
Sounds like a plan.
Hope he got paid well for that BS....
Hillary forces are expanding their offensive against the Republican nonimee, releasing a TV advertisement nationwide that spotlights a former Trump University salesman who says he was "ashamed" to work for the online school.
No comment to go with it troll?
again, as a Cruz supporter, lifes tough.
I bought, in my lifetime,
A PSYCHIC HOTLINE PHONE NUMBER for 2k lol
5000 DOLLARS WORTH OF USELESS VENDING MACHINES, before I figured out that the way to go is buy really cheap used ones off people that got suckered like me. Built a good route :)
500 BUCKS for the Landmark Course in Manhattan at boss’ suggestion. A lot of hocus pocus new age garbage.
boo freaking hoo hoo
It is obvious that it was a scam. Not sure how the trumpistas on here find a way to defend this guy. Now he is scamming American voters.
Don’t worry Trump has the BBB on speed dial that will fax a defunct rating in the middle of the debates 3 years after it has closed allowing that complaints only last 3 years so the rating is back at an A rating.
Wow. When you are asked to enter into a contract for $35k you are expected to read the agreement? If you part with $35k that easily I want sell you stuff.
Does anybody really care? Is this the best they have. It is so weak it tells me what a great man Trump really is.
Question for the Trumpsters... If by some miracle Trump University reopens for business (as The Donald in his bizarre infomercial press conference promised that it will), would you personally spend your money on his courses or encourage a family member to do so?
This is how trump treats the average American...scamming them out of money.
I
And yet 98% of the people taking the course signed forms which stated they thought the courses were great.
Instructors for the courses are the ones answering the phones?
Exactly what fine print prevented you from quitting? Oh, no fine print. That’s what I thought.
As for those who are suing Trump, I’m hearing they signed cards that reflected their appreciation for the courses as well.
Is John McCain responsible for these PACs?
His great finance reform bill was a doozie. Is it why we have this PAC problem today?
It's really easy.
People took the course, some were very successful with the information provided, some did okay and some were unable to benefit from the information. Those that failed looked outward with their frustration rather than inwards. I see it all the time in my line of work. People gotta blame everyone but themselves.
