Trump University Coming Back To Haunt Donald In a recent episode from The Young Turks, hosts Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian dive into the ongoing controversy surrounding Trump University, a case that doesn’t seem to fade away. Following Donald Trump’s election, one of his first actions contradicted his earlier claims of never settling lawsuits, as he agreed to pay $25 million to settle a fraud case brought by former students of the now-defunct "university" .

Key Highlights​

1. Ongoing Legal Challenges: The discussion centers on Judge Gonzalo Curiel, who previously presided over the original Trump University case, and who is now set to determine whether individual students can file separate fraud lawsuits against Trump, even after the settlement. This ruling could allow for additional financial reparation for those who feel cheated .
2. Nature of the Fraud: The hosts emphasized the nature of Trump University as a predatory institution masquerading as an educational entity, targeting vulnerable populations with promises of easy wealth through real estate investment. The judge's recent ruling concerns whether the past settlement fairly compensates the thousands affected who paid sums ranging from $1,500 to $35,000 .
3. Cultural Commentary: Uygur and Kasparian critique Trump’s business practices and liken them to a broader issue of fraud prevalent in many for-profit colleges. They express frustration over how these schools exploit individuals seeking better futures through education, while also taking jabs at Trump’s political persona, branding him as a "professional con artist" .
4. Public Response and Trump’s Image: The episode captures the hosts' disbelief over Trump settling the case, questioning the integrity of a supposed billionaire targeting struggling students for small amounts of money. They argue this speaks to a deeper hypocrisy in Trump's narrative about protecting the American people .
