Trump talked about this today. He said the students signed a paper saying they were satisfied, and then joined the lawsuit. Sounds like he’s going to win this one. Countersuit?
I tried to do a little informal research about Trump's audits and apparently in NY he is considered a major hardnose republican, even though it doesn't appear that way to the average conservative republican, I guess the contrast in Ny is substantial.
Meanwhile, the democrat NY Ag that brought the suit is considered very political.
I think Trump supporters have to get energized the next 2 weeks because the elite have decided now is the time to take Trump down. Rubio alone has purchased 20 million in anti trump ads these past few days. That's why I posted this.
Clinton Foundation Donor to Pay $95.5 Million Settlement to Justice Department
(out of a total $11 billion tax dollars The Education Management Corporation received)
Free Beacon | 11/16/15 | Brent Scher / FR Posted / by Libloather
A for-profit educational corporation that has donated to the Clinton Foundation agreed to pay $95.5 million to the Obama administration as a settlement for a government lawsuit alleging that it was using illegal tactics to lure in prospective students.
The Education Management Corporation was sued by the Department of Justice in 2011 for multiple recruitment violations, including paying its recruiters based on the number of students it enrolled, and exaggerating the career opportunities that were available to graduates. The lawsuit argued that the violations made the corporation ineligible for the $11 billion in state and federal financial aid it has received since 2003.
On top of the $95.5 million settlement, the group also agreed to forgive more than $100 million in loans it made to former students, according to the Associated Press. (Excerpt) Read more at freebeacon.com ...

MORE CLINTON DIRT--Laureate Education is a for-profit education firm; ex-Pres Clinton is a paid honorary chancellor.
This organization has some unusual practices.
For instance, its students serve as telemarketers who pitch the school to prospective new students. It operates in at least three countries (Turkey, Mexico and Chile) where for-profit universities are illegal, author Schweizer notes.
Douglas Becker (a FOB), runs the for-profit university, which engages Bill Clinton to give speeches several times a year. Based on Clintons gargantuan fee scale, that works out to Pres Bill getting perhaps $1 million a year from Laureate, Clinton Cash author Schweizer estimates.
(NOTE On falsified disclosure forms, Pres Bill revealed only that he has been paid more than $1,000 by Laureate.)
Becker also runs a related nonprofit, International Youth Foundation, which coincidentally found its federal grant money has exploded (according to author Schweizer) since Hillary became secretary of state (in 2009) and Bill became honorary chancellor of Becker/s profit-seeking company.
Many of International Youth Foundation grants came from tax dollars---from a State Dept agency---USAID.
Then SoS Hillary took official control of USAID, a move that dramatically reduced its independence, Clinton Cash author Schweizer says.
excerpt from article at the site in case you don't want to click:
"However, this is not the first time Eric Schneiderman has used his stature as Attorney General for his own political gain or to attack critics of President Obama. Indeed, one recent New York Post article entitled, “Democratic Hit Man”, rightfully pointed out that while Schneiderman, elected with a paper thin resume, “seems to spare no expense in attacking critics of President Obama but hasn’t lifted an investigative finger when it comes to the sleaze involving fat cats in his own party.”
According to the article, the backlash against Schneiderman’s one-sided tactics has gotten so bad that "the 'investigate Schneiderman' movement is gaining traction among congressional Republicans, particularly in the House Financial Services Committee." Just as significant, the calls for an investigation into Schneiderman'S tactics arose even before it was revealed that former State Senator Shirley Huntley had provided information to the FBI that Schneiderman was engaging in corruption and other illicit dealings.
Given all of this, together with the fact that Schneiderman has accepted political contributions from the same lawyers suing Trump University in California, is there any doubt that with a 98% approval rating from its students and a 3 day money back guarantee, that Schneiderman'S investigation into Trump University is nothing more than a politically motivated witch hunt?
But don’t just take our word for it, see for yourself. Unlike reading a newspaper article, here you can find all of the evidence to substantiate the facts: more than 10,000 handwritten surveys filled out by former Trump University showing a 98% approval rating, video of former Trump University students, including Tarla Makaeff, who despite stating on video that "I thought today was great. All of the speakers were really good", is now the named plaintiff in a class action lawsuit in California demanding a refund, and news articles documenting Eric Schneiderman's abuse and misuse of the New York Attorney General's Office for his own political gain.
You have heard the allegations, now see the facts, see the evidence and make your own judgment about how your hard earned tax dollars are being wasted.
Lets start with the criminal universities first
Trump will win this one. No case here.

The Cuban children’s PACs have deep pockets. I’m sure there are line items in the budgets for bribes.
