Elderly Trump University plaintiffs die waiting for checks

About 7,000 former students from President Trump’s now shuttered real estate seminar business Trump University are due to receive checks in coming months — but some have died waiting.

The disclosure came as part of a court filing this week seeking to beat back a last-ditch appeal by a Florida litigant that could delay the payments from the $25 million settlement for months or years.

“For some class members, the relief is already too late,” wrote Rachel Jensen, a San Diego attorney that helped secure the settlement for the two class-action suits filed in federal court.

Boyce Chait, 85, of Springfield, N.J.,died in January while waiting for a refund on his $34,995 Trump University “mentorship program” tuition.

I can't believe that bastard has done this to these people and has absolutely not one shred of remorse. He is the most revolting person on the planet.

None of these people will ever see a single penny of any settlement from the Kumquat Klepto...

He. Is. Flat. Broke... and has been for Decades.

The whole stinking Klan has kept afloat by an elaborate (and not too well hidden) shell game which consists of a Gish Gallop of obfuscation, diversion, and obfuscation.

They are low level Con Men and their latest scam was conning the Kremlin into believing that they could remove the sanctions for a price. At the peril of every single citizen of the United States.
