Trump bails on the Trump U. law suits for $25 million.

"I never settle," he said.  I wonder what other statements he's made that he'll weasel out on?

Must you always post such pitiful lame threads and especially lame memes. You're embarrassing.

So I'll clarify what is screamingly obvious to everyone else.
The Trump U. flap was a big deal during the election unless you were in Russia.  It led to the Curiel embarrassment, an even bigger deal.
So the megabucks settlement of the law suit so Trump wouldn't have to testify, when he claims he "never settles," is a fairly big deal to anyone with a pulse.
Do you breath only through your mouth?

Seems like a sign of decency and making an effort to change Jake.

Good move by Trump too by not having this dog him while President.

But, yes, he had no choice but to settle because you are correct it would have dogged him.  And, yes, he's a weasel.

Give him a prop when he deserves one. There may be many more opportunities to call him a weasel in the future but this one wasn't it.

Sometimes morality fits hand in glove with politics and this is one of those times.

He settled because he had no choice and I bet he was eating his liver when he agreed to it.  The "right thing" would have been to not defraud those people to begin with.

I didn't say he did it for morality reasons. Imo, he did it for practical and political purposes, but in this case, they happen to parallel the morality of the situation, so that is an added bonus to the settlement.

Can Conan help you with reading comprehension or is he strictly a grammarian? LOL

Read your sentence again.  The word "morality" is clearly linked to what Trump did.  It makes no sense any other way.  Slut.

I accept.  You need to teach GaGa how to do that gracefully.

...to have to roll over like a little bitch and pay up.  He likes to take cases to trial and if he loses, to keep appealing.  The fact that he had to settle with Schneiderman must really gall Trump.  And Schneiderman didn't waste any time in gloating over the victory:

"Today's $25 million settlement agreement is a stunning reversal by Donald Trump and a major victory for the over 6,000 victims of his fraudulent university," Schneiderman said in a statement. "I am pleased that under the terms of this settlement, every victim will receive restitution and that Donald Trump will pay up to $1 million in penalties to the State of New York for violating state education laws. The victims of Trump University have waited years for today's result and I am pleased that their patience — and persistence — will be rewarded by this $25 million settlement."

The settlement of $25 million is really a lot of money.  In effect, it was an offer the plaintiffs couldn't refuse.  They probably got more than 50 cents on the dollar, quite a lot for class action lawsuits.  Trump was scared shitless to have this hanging over his head like the sword of Damocles.

But Trump can look on the bright side.  He said if he won the case, he'd reopen Trump U.  Since he did not admit liability, he can open the U again...and this time call it PRESIDENT Trump U.

But $25 million says otherwise.  - old adage.  Plaintiff attorneys were so happy about this message, they waived their fees.  Trump = Burn.
