“In New York, we have laws against business fraud, we have laws against consumer fraud,” Schneiderman said in an interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos on “Good Morning America.” “We have a law against running an illegal, unlicensed university. This never was a university. The fraud started with the name of the organization, and you can’t just go around saying this is the George Stephanopoulos Law Firm/Hospital/University without actually qualifying and registering, so it was really a fraud from beginning to end.”
“It’s fraud. This is just straight up fraud. It’s like selling people something you say is a Mercedes and it turns out to be a Volkswagen,” Schneiderman added in a separate interview on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.” “And even if some people say, ‘Well, I actually kind of like the Volkswagen,’ it’s still fraud, ‘cause it’s not a Mercedes. This is not a university.”
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman Says Trump University Was 'Straight Up Fraud'
This is not a surprise.
Once a fraud and conman, always a fraud and conman.
Hillary's a man?
If both got indicted I might begin to believe there is justice in the world.

If both Hillary and Donald get indicted, congrats - you're now Italy.
The TU fraud was so obvious that it took the NY AG only 11 years to notice it.
If both got indicted I might begin to believe there is justice in the world.
And there are at least two States (Florida and Texas) where the AG looked into these fraud allegations, decided to not pursue them further, and then received campaign contributions from Trump.

Trump U a fraud? No, I'm shocked.
Here's another wrinkle to the Trump University as Fraud situation.
State attorneys general who dropped Trump University fraud inquiries subsequently got Trump donations
Given all of the instances of Trump discussing his willingness and history with making campaign contributions in exchange for political favors, this should certainly raise a few eyebrows. However, given the recent oral leanings during the Supreme Court hearing on the McDonald case, I am highly skeptical that such would ever lead to a corruption or bribery charge.

Not a word about fraud Clinton?
LOL. Sometimes I think we're already there.
I would look for the Republicans to quickly amend their rules to disallow an indicted candidate--I'm pretty sure there is no such rule at present as the issue has not come up before, but I could be wrong about that. And then Trump's delegates would be released to vote for any other candidate officially qualified for the general election. It might take several votes and who would emerge the victor? Who knows.f
The Democrats? Who knows. They might just look to Obama to pardon Hillary and go ahead with her. In recent elections, the Democrats have typically set their standards bar much lower for their candidates than most Republicans deemed acceptable.
The Republicans tend to expect more in the way of accepted credentials for their candidates.
Until this year anyway.
