Trump University To Pay $25 Million Lawsuit Settlement To Cheated Students
Nah, Don-Don, cut that check.
Federal Judge Gonzolo Curiel has given his consent to a multi-million dollar lawsuit filed against the President of the United State’s shady school according to NYDailyNews. $25 million will be awarded to the thousands of Americans who were cheated by the orange huckster’s education-for-profit scheme.
The settlement turned out to be a global deal that combined two California class-action lawsuits and a civil action by New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman.
“Today’s final approval by a judge of our Trump University settlement will provide relief — and hopefully much-needed closure — to the victims of Donald Trump’s fraudulent university,” Schneiderman said in a statement.
“Trump University’s victims waited years for compensation, while President Trump refused to settle and fought us every step of the way — until his stunning reversal last fall,” he said.
The angry students won’t get ALL of their money back, but the report states that the 3,730 students will receive about 90¢ on the dollar.
The sad part is Trump probably feels like he got a good deal because he didn’t have to make restitution in full. SMH.
Hopefully all these people can go get a real education with that money.
