Washington (CNN)A judge overseeing a lawsuit filed against Donald Trump regarding his closed real estate education program called Trump University has ruled parts of internal documents, including "playbooks" regarding running the enterprise, should be released as part of the case.

The playbooks, which include ones from 2009 and 2010, detail how the venture worked, how Trump University events were run and how to sell programs to customers.
From 2005 to 2010, when the program closed, about 10,000 students across the nation signed up for Trump University classes, which promised success in real estate by offering courses and seminars based on the principles of the businessman.
Now Trump University is the focus of two class action lawsuits in San Diego by some students who claim they were defrauded and a separate suit filed by the New York attorney general.
Trump University fraud case becomes campaign issue
The order to release the internal documents comes in one of the California cases and is in response to a request by The Washington Post, which first reported the story Saturday afternoon.

which promised success in real estate

That is a blatant lie. It was made clear upfront that risk was involved.

I doubt they were using the word in that sense. Probably more in the marketing sense. The weather looks promising today, but I won't be mad at God if it rains later.

Source please? If this is true Trump should have no problem revealing the record of the university as requested.

Yes, let's take that one sentence out of context and ignore the fact that the immediately preceding sentence places the onus explicitly on the reader.

But anyway, this whole thing is peanuts compared to what Hillary has done. If the goal here is to make Trump look as corrupt and scandalous as the Clintons then you guys have failed.

One little sentence is grounds for fraud.

I posted a thread about this a while back. Basically, Trump personally participated in advertisements promising that Trump University would teach his real estate investment techniques. And in court, his lawyers admitted that he didn't write a single word of the curriculum. The whole thing was a fraud, using paid salespeople (as opposed to people with...you know...actual real estate experience) and high pressure sales tactics.

My old thread had a link to an article from Time that went into detail about it all.

People have to choose between Hilary and Donald.

Politics is all about compromise - Trump is awful, but Hilary is worse.

I do not believe that this type of argument can justify a vote. Defrauding over 10,000 people with bogus claims for a university is something that none of the other candidates, nor other Presidents and Vice Presidents have committed in recent history, and possibly all of history.

Yes. Just like the guy from the Men's Warehouse. Just like several marketing pieces "guarantee" their product is the best out there. Without an actual written guarantee and the terms of the guarantee, it is just a marketing technique.


Sorry, but that type of "guarantee" is not sufficient.


2 things this "guarantee" lacks that Yellow Book, Inc. v. Tocci court set forth are:

1)Clearly recite the consideration for the guaranty in the text of the agreement;

2) Separate the guaranty from the remainder of the agreement and have it separately acknowledged;

Neither of these were met by this marketing statement. There is no consideration or terms of a guarantee associated with the "guarantee".
