    Yes, Trump University Was a Massive Scam

    By Ian Tuttle

    Many people believe that higher education is a de facto scam. Trump University, Donald Trump’s real-estate institution, was a de jure one.
    First thing first, Trump University was never a university. When the “school” was established in 2005, the New York State Education Department warned that it was in violation of state law for operating without a NYSED license. Trump ignored the warnings. (The institution is now called, ahem, “Trump Entrepreneur Initiative.”) Cue lawsuits.
    Trump University is currently the defendant in three lawsuits — two class-action lawsuits filed in California, and one filed in New York by then-attorney general Eric Schneiderman, who told CNN’s New Day in 2013: “We started looking at Trump University and discovered that it was a classic bait-and-switch scheme. It was a scam, starting with the fact that it was not a university.”
    Trump U “students” say the same. In his affidavit, Richard Hewson reported that he and his wife “concluded that we had paid over $20,000 for nothing, based on our belief in Donald Trump and the promises made at the [organization’s] free seminar and three-day workshop.” But “the whole thing was a scam.”

    Many Americans still believe that Donald Trump is a savvy and successful businessman, but a recent Times exposé on the Trump family’s financial records suggests the opposite.Photograph by Joe McNally / Getty

    Last October, the New York Times published a monumental exposé of how Donald Trump and other members of the Trump family engaged in sham financial schemes during the nineteen-nineties, including what the newspaper described as “instances of outright fraud,” to avoid paying hundreds of millions of dollars in taxes on the real-estate fortune that Fred Trump passed on to his children. Last month, the three reporters who wrote the story—David Barstow, Susanne Craig, and Russ Buettner—were awarded the Pulitzer Prize in explanatory reporting.
    On Tuesday evening, the Times dropped another story that delved into the President’s financial past. Written by Buettner and Craig, and based upon “printouts from Mr. Trump’s official Internal Revenue Service transcripts” that the reporters obtained, the story further undermined the assiduously promoted fiction that Trump, before he became a reality-television star and entered politics, was a highly successful self-made businessman. He was anything but.
    Between 1985 and 1994, the Times story says, Trump’s core businesses lost money every single year, and the accumulated losses came to more than a billion dollars. “In fact, year after year, Mr. Trump appears to have lost more money than nearly any other individual American taxpayer, the Times found when it compared his results with detailed information the I.R.S. compiles on an annual sampling of high-income earners,” Buettner and Craig write. “His core business losses in 1990 and 1991—more than $250 million each year—were more than double those of the nearest taxpayers in the I.R.S. information for those years.”
    In case you didn’t take all that in, here is a quick recap: when Trump was portraying himself as a newly minted billionaire and financial genius, his core businesses were losing money hand over fist. Assuming the Times reporters’ analysis of the I.R.S. data on high earners is accurate—and there is no apparent reason to doubt it—he was the biggest loser in the country for two years in a row.

    Hillary lost.

    You seem like the type of dumb-fuck who would fall for a Trump-U type scam.

    Let's just suppose what you say is true, which it isn't. Don't you realize that the President has tremendous powers, and as a last resort he can always simply pardon himself and bestow upon himself complete immunity, which is entirely constitutional and legal? What would be the point of bringing all these baseless accusations forward, when President Trump is never going to be brought to account for anything at all, even after he becomes a regular citizen?

    If I did anything wrong I would convict myself. To me, personally, it would be is a pleasure to be held to account.

    However I have done scarcely a single thing wrong.

    The President also has the legal constitutional power to pardon himself of any and all crimes he might be charged with in the future. He doesn't even need to name what crimes those might be. Many other people have already been pardoned by the President for crimes they hadn't even been charged with yet. The President really is above the law, contrary to what the uneducated talking heads like to insist. Why? Because the President IS the law.

    Self-Pardons: The President Can't Pardon Himself, So Why Do People Think He Can?
    By Philip Bobbitt Wednesday, June 20, 2018, 2:53 PM

    There appears to be some confusion surrounding the question of whether a president can pardon himself. There are many judgments to be drawn from the familiar forms of legal argument—history, text, structure, prudence, doctrine and ethos—all of which cohere around the conclusion that such a pardon is not constitutionally permissible, a conclusion also reached by the Office of Legal Counsel (OLC).
    These arguments are discussed in more detail in “Impeachment: A Handbook,” by Charles L. Black, Jr. and Philip Bobbitt, forthcoming from Yale Press

    Yeah.. that's pretty cute. But I do my homework, sooo..


    "As a liberal Democrat, Professor Black had no sympathy for Nixon politically. But in letters to newspapers, he argued against forcing Nixon to surrender tape.."

    "Yet it is striking that, despite being a Democrat, Philip Bobbitt so often echoes the arguments made by John McCain on foreign policy.."

    Sure is some "unbiased" references you have there.

    The President however can step down like Nixon did and have his VP turned President Pardon him.

    So if it heats up too much, Mike Pense will just pardon him

    But what does any of this have to do with Mike?

    You left out the leftist WUO who used college kids (most likely trained by CIA) to bust into FBI offices in Wisconsin and Chicago. it was the early years of Wikileaks.

    And it seems TOTSE had some members talking in favour of the Weather Underground.

    it's so transparent it's funny as fuck.

    Shit's bout to catch up on some niggas.. you feel me?

    Also

    I want to make it perfectly clear that this was Ted Gundersons FBI. Not his field office. he was in LA though I think I recall reading he was in Chicago or some midwestern city first. But in the sense it was HIS FBI busted into.

    I been hearing by Susan Lindeuar that the FBI is being hand picked today. they are working with the type of people who did this shit. I'm not bad mouthing the FBI I am bad mouthing the corruption being brought into it.

    You had Dotors at Stanford wanting to bring Bill Ayers on board. Not as a Doctor, he's not. But him and his girlfriend (or wife) to come work for the administration board or some shit.

    Fuck is going on there?

    Someone I know from Stanford was telling me he knew Brewster Kahle. He turned on me and told Brewster Kahle I was reporting the TOTSE history to the feds.

    I might be wrong about this but I am pretty sure that Aarron Shwartz co built Archive.org by writing the programing Y-Combinator?

    He's helping Spez from totse to build Reddit while he's helping Brewster Kahle create an archive based packett reader. Which is how it was explained to me.. or perhaps I messed up on some detailt here.


    point being. Brewster Kahle fam at Archive is removing totse data and scrubbing it. It's probably gone for good.

    Lostcause from totse turned out to be the OP user Zoklett from reddit (claiming she worked there for spez) and Arron wrote several articles about totse that were free eBook in PDF format on usa.gov site.

    this is some bullshit. it's funny because when Trump was first elected there was some hoopla about Reddit saying there is no way someone could sign on as trump nor delete from the BBS messages (or alter them) and then was proven to be lying later.. that story just went away real fast. it had something to do with "Robot.txt"

    and finally.. the Beto O'Roarke CDC/ TOTSE MENU for CDC connection


    this is just some elaborate ass game. this is why I honestly believe all of this is just a spin game by spin doctors and their rich technicratic guys

    also they placed all the blame on Arron for trying to retrieve google eBooks that were public domain but google and a college in Brooklyn NY pressed charges on him for making false accounts and stealing thousands of dollars in data usage. he rigged some way of doing this. fearing the FBI were going to make sure he was going to be locked up for 30 years he decided to off himself instead.

    Fuck this World.
    I hope some surge creates a false launch in the antiquated nuke system and this planet fucks itself hard.
