Trump appeared in ads saying he personally selected each instructor, and guaranteed they were highly qualified.
However, when opposing attorneys asked him questions about these instructors on the witness stand, it seems like he didn’t know any of them or recognize their names. Something like this could definitely wreck a guy’s case.
Didn’t the woman who started this thing drop out? I read that she had made a video praising the university. Did that happen?
I’ve heard that, and that would have looked really bad because the media would be covering every detail of it. It would hurt his approval and efforts to gain support with that out there. That said, Trump obviously thought he could win because he refused to settle. The only reason he did is because he got elected. It’s a good thing that he did because it allows him to focus on bigger issues and takes a bone away from the media.
