“Now when we are learning that Donald Trump has fleeced naive “students” of his very dubious “Trump University” will we be told that he needed money with which to grease politicians?”

Actually the REAL PURPOSE of Trump University was to teach people that making money is not easy. So they signed up for it, looking for a quick score, and found that out.

I’d say it served its purpose.

“He blunders into a trade war which devastates our economy.

He blunders into a war (period) which devastates the country

He so appalls Americans in two years that he turns the House over to Democrats and the Senate two years later

Fancying himself an economic genius, he engages in crony capitalism this time from the other side of the equation and backs losers which not only sets back the economy but legitimates crony capitalism leading to American economic eclipse.

Utterly ignorant of the Constitution and having no regard for it in any event, he tramples on the Bill of Rights.”

JIMMY, JIMMY,is that you!

Sorry Jimmy, but it’s not 1980 again and your predictions then were proven PATENTLY FALSE.

So, some losers decide that it looks easy to get rich in real estate, then find out that there's actual work involved, get pissed off and decide to sue for fraud because they were too lazy to do do the footwork. I know some successful real estate agents and they work their tails off- while doing very well financially.

Congratulations!

You have just won this week's much sought after prize for the most shameless defense of Donald Trump's grotesqueries:

Blame the victim, he had it coming, he deserves being defrauded, it serves him right, it builds character.

How about, that's what he gets for believing Donald Trump?

Bob you can go to that top of the pile.

Thanks, I’ve been making that point for months. The ‘victims’ lost $5,000 there. They could have easily lost 10, 100, possibly 1,000 times that much if Trump U convinced them that they now knew the way to a quick score...because there isn’t any way.

Cruz won five delegates. Chin up. Best hope is Cruz wins Texas and gains some momentum in case Trump does not work out through vetting.

If there are major issues, hope that they come out now and not in October...

He beat the gang of 8 by voting for the right amendments and putting in poison pills. Led the gov shutdown to slow down spending. Slowed down the EPA in the Bush Admin.

Won second amendment case at Supreme court and other key legal cases as Texas AG.

Dont understand the hostility to Cruz. McConnell may cave on Supreme Court, hope we dont destroy Cruz to help buck up the situation.

“This is pretty amazing,” said Scott Reed, a veteran Republican Party consultant, about Trump’s upcoming due date in federal court. “Usually, you clean this stuff up before you run for president.”

This part is hilarious! And seriously, who is stupid enough to max out credit cards to the tune of 60K? I’ll believe the suit is legit when they go after all the infomercial dudes who hawk this garbage at 3 am.

Cruz took 6, Rubio took 7, which has them tied for delegates.

“...trump’s a liar and a fraud...proof this lawsuit!”

Yes, and that is why when someone files a lawsuit, the person being sued automatically declares guilt because EVERYONE knows that the person doing the suing is ALWAYS right, correct, innocent, and truly aggrieved, and would NEVER ever launch a lawsuit out of anything but the purest of motives.

“The Journal noted that Trump’s rivals Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz have not released their most recent tax returns...”

You don’t read what is in your own post? Is the Wall Street Journal the presiding authority over tax returns?

Nate, still love ya, and willing to admit if I'm wrong, but... I totally disagree.

Trump will do what he's always done.

Delegate the most important stuff to the best people, and set out only his vision.

"Build a wall. Boot out illegals. You are granted the abilities to do this, Wall Czar, now go do it."

"Prevent China from abusing our economy. You are granted the abilities to do this, Trade Czar, now go do it."

"Find me a guy who thinks like Scalia, but has little paper trail. You are granted the abilities to do this, SCOTUS Czar, now go do it."

"Get Europe back on it's feet as regards the Muslim Invasion. You will need to be subtle, they are their own countries. You are granted the abilities to do this, Crusades Czar, now go do it."

“That said, its its something Trump wishes he would rather forget and its probably going to be years before its settled.”

Settled out of court, which is the real goal of the slip and fall lawyers.

“Ted Cruz took on the establishment of both parties”

By word only. By deed, he joined them, as in TPA and the Corker bill.
