Breaking: don trump pays 25 MILLION dollars to settle trump university lawsuit

[spanone]

per m$nbc

just think how the right would frame this if Hillary had won and settled a lawsuit for 25 million dollars....?

so he made 40 million and got out by paying 25 million....not a bad scam.

There are three lawsuits relating to Trump University: two class actions suits in California and a case brought by New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman. All of the cases would be covered in the possible settlement, the person said.

The source asked not be identified because the agreement was not yet final.

Schneiderman has said over 5,000 students across the country were defrauded out of about $40 million.

The $25 million settlement agreement would include roughly $4 million to resolve Schneiderman's claims, the source said. Lawyers for the students were not planning to seek attorneys fees, but reimbursement for costs.

4. It probably didn't come out of his pocket.

More likely from corporate benefactors who want to get in Trump's good graces.

7. Too little

Schneiderman has said over 5,000 students across the country were defrauded out of about $40 million.

The $25 million settlement agreement would include roughly $4 million to resolve Schneiderman's claims, the source said. Lawyers for the students were not planning to seek attorneys fees, but reimbursement for costs.

So it's a dime on the dollar before costs.

9. I was thinking 120 million

Triple damages for fraud.

I am hearten by my suspicion that he didn't make $25 million off this scam. I read that they had refunded some tuition already and he's out lawyer's fees.

Of course, as others have pointed out, he may not even be paying this himself.

10. I think every member of the class

Should withdraw from the class action suit and file individually as is their right. Tie him up in court for years to come.

"Best deals" are in his mind only. He steals, scams, cheats, skims, stretches, sneaks, fudges, ducks, withholds, whines, sulks, tattles, cries, moans...oh and he lies. LIES BIGLY.
