Clinton blasts Trump University, calls GOP rival a 'fraud'

Newark, New Jersey (CNN)Hillary Clinton is hammering Donald Trump's namesake set of training programs, calling the school "more evidence that Donald Trump himself is a fraud."

"He is trying to scam America the way he scammed all those people at Trump University," the likely Democratic presidential nominee said at an event Wednesday in Newark, New Jersey.
The attacks Clinton unleashed against Trump are among her sharpest of the campaign -- reflecting a belief that Trump University is a major vulnerability for the presumptive GOP nominee and that Trump is likely to be goaded into a response that would keep the issue alive.
Clinton pointed to documents unsealed by a judge Tuesday in a lawsuit over Trump University.
"His own employees testified that Trump U -- you can't make this up -- that Trump U was a fraudulent scheme where Donald Trump enriched himself at the expense of hard working people," Clinton said.

I would like to see a survey of people who took the course and see how many of them parlayed their "education" into a successful real estate career.

A lot of the "students" went deep into debt.
