Based on the foregoing evidence, the Court concludes that Plaintiffs have raised a genuine dispute of material fact as to whether Plaintiff Brown was exposed to core misrepresentations made by Mr. Trump, and whether a “reasonable consumer” could have been misled. For instance, Brown testified that he watched a promotional video in which Mr. Trump said that he had “handpicked” the mentors and instructors, that they were “professors,” and that TU was akin to “the Wharton School of Business.” Further, as discussed above, there is evidence that the core misrepresentations occurred in TU advertisements featuring and approved by Mr. Trump.
Accordingly, the Court DENIES Defendant Mr. Trump’s motion for summary judgment on Plaintiffs’ claim under New York General Business Law § 349(a).

Thanks for the information and link. This is very serious and casts doubt on the character of Mr. Trump and his feelings for the “little people”.
