John Oliver Slams Sleazy Trump University

John Oliver Slams Sleazy Trump University

As John Oliver reports our national pastime, the presidential election from Hell, has become a nightmare, but to hear his pitiful whining, no one is suffering like Donald Trump! Trump claims his ‘Trump University’ trial is about to be adjudicated by a “A hater of Donald Trump”  and “A racist!” Maybe there’s something to Trump’s complaint. Judge Curiel is a native of Indiana, whose background is blue collar. The Judge was appointed by one of Trump’s own – a Republican. There must be something else about this Judge that is so obvious I’m missing it.

Trump is no newcomer to lawsuits, he has nearly 3,000 of them racked up in the past three decades – but the complaints against Trump University bother him greatly…Perhaps because they’re indefensible? The New York Attorney General summed up Trump’s alleged school; “It’s a classic bait and switch scheme, not a university.” A former ‘instructor’ allowed “It’s just a joke, a facade, it was just selling hopes and lies.” Not all promises were complete lies!  Students were promised a photo with Donald Trump in the package. On the big day, a cardboard cutout of Trump was carried in, and ‘buyers’ were allowed to stand beside the smiling ‘dummy’ and take a photo.

John runs down the astonishing details, and reads bits of the Trump University ‘playbook of sales techniques’ is nothing short of breathtaking!
In the playbook, employees are advised, when  meeting resistance, to remind the ‘buyer’ that  “Trump is the BEST.” While it sounds lame, that simple ploy is working extremely well to rocket this orange fraud straight to the White House!
