Why will "Trump America" work better than "Trump University"?

The 7000 Americans who paid thousands of dollars to Trump University ... did they become GREAT business people? He said Trump University had a 98% approval rating, "higher than Harvard." So all but 140 of them must be GREAT American business people now. You know I think it would be great if some of them came forward and gave their testimonies about how Trump made them GREAT!

TRUMP is the only candidate unabashedly saying that he will put america first and MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN

Trump told people he'd teach them to be GREAT business people in exchange for up to $35,000. Was he telling the truth then, Mulholland? He said he'd make 7000 middle class suckers prosperous if they went into debt to buy his success program.



Mario Tama—Getty Images Trump at a news conference in New York City on May 23, 2005, announcing the establishment of Trump University.

“We’re going to have professors that are absolutely terrific—terrific people, terrific brains, successful, the best,” Trump claimed on videos shown at the seminars. “We’re going to have the best of the best. And honestly, if you do not learn from them, if you do not learn from me … then you’re just not going to make it in terms of the world of success.”

One advertisement signed by Donald Trump promoting the free class read: “Come to my free class! In just 90 minutes, my hand-picked instructors will share my techniques, which took my entire career to develop. Then just copy exactly what I’ve done and get rich.”


Trump said he could teach people how to become prosperous, how to get rich using techniques Trump developed over his lifetime. Those who attended that free 90 minute class were told they should pay $1500 for a three day weekend of seminars. At those seminars, they were told to call their credit card companies and ask their credit lines be raised, then given the hard sell to upsell them into several levels of mentorships that cost from $10,000 up to $35,000. The "instructors" at these seminars were salesman paid 10% of their upsells.

I'm pretty sure that not a single "graduate" of Trump University became more successful. They were suckers and Trump is nothing but a blustering sociopathic conman. Maybe they learned not to trust conmen like Trumo.

Mulholland, can you answer a couple questions: Can you accept that Trump University was a carefully designed con to defraud suckers?

Or do you think it what Trump said it was .... a path to prosperity? It's got to be one of the two, either Trump was telling the truth or he was lying.

Then if you can accept that Trump University was just a con designed to make Trump money at the expense of those who believed him, doesn't the word sociopath apply?
