So Donald Trump while trying to get the GOP nomination will take the beautiful witness stand at in the very near future in his own fraud trial. Gotta love it. Let's say he actually gets the nomination and the other Democrat, Hillary Clinton, gets hers. We'd have one candidate running while on trial for fraud and another under FBI investigation.

What a country.

Here are some details:

In court filings last Friday, lawyers for both sides in a long-running civil lawsuit over the now defunct Trump University named Trump on their witness lists. That makes it all but certain that the reality-show star and international businessman will be forced to be grilled under oath over allegations in the lawsuit that he engaged in deceptive trade practices and scammed thousands of students who enrolled in his "university" courses in response to promises he would make them rich in the real estate market.

Although the case has been winding its way through the courts for the past five years -- and Trump has denied all wrongdoing -- the final pretrial conference is now slated for May 6, according to the latest pleadings in the case. No trial date has been set, but the judge has indicated his interest in moving the case forward, the pleadings show.

This part really stood out:

It would seem to me that being a fraud is a resume enhancer for politics. /S

Any ordinary citizen would have a RICO case against him if he had done 1/10 of what Trump has done.

I think BOTH cases should be brought forward ASAP.

No delays.

No stalling.

Just bring it.

Let the chips fall where they may.

Trump’s M.O. is bribing those willing politicians and bureaucrats and destroy those that have principles and stand in his way.

In a just world, Trump would be rotting in prison, along with Hillary and Bill Clinton.

NEWSFLASH: This has nothing to do with Cruz.

I do not prejudge these things. That’s what the court process will do. But this started well before the election cycle. It has nothing to do with Cruz.
