“To summarize, Mr. Schneiderman has seen his lawsuit whittled from a total of six claims to two, and those two are limited to students who participated in the school’s programs only in the window between May 2010 and December 2010. This eliminated the possibility of damages for more than 95 percent of all TEI students.

What’s more, according to the school’s records, of the approximately 1,000 students whose claims remain, only 121 are from New York State, and they spent approximately $105,000 total on Trump programs. Even if the attorney general somehow prevails in all those cases—and there’s zero evidence to suggest he will—the maximum damages Mr. Schneiderman can recover will be a tiny fraction of the $40 million the attorney general bandied about when he trumpeted his lawsuit on a tour of morning shows.

Missing a statute of limitations is a major screw-up. So is filing faulty affidavits and so is declining to fix those affidavits even when given the opportunity. It almost makes you wonder if the real point of this lawsuit was never to recover money on behalf of New Yorkers who were supposedly wronged, but instead to take on a high-profile defendant in a way that would surely generate headlines and television appearances.”

So, what you’re saying is that trump will again get off because he has prosecutors and judges in his back pocket. At least he’s dealing with honest politicians. Once they’re bought, they stay bought. trump must pay his politicians well. Too bad he’s not as considerate of his illegals.
