The leading candidate in the ongoing presidential candidate nomination under Democrat party, Hillary Clinton hammered Donald Trump’s calling the school “more evidence that Donald Trump himself is a fraud.”
“He is trying to scam America the way he scammed all those people at Trump University,” Clinton said at an event Wednesday in Newark, New Jersey.
Clinton pointed to documents unsealed by a judge Tuesday in a lawsuit over Trump University.”His own employees testified that Trump U — you can’t make this up — that Trump U was a fraudulent scheme where Donald Trump enriched himself at the expense of hard working people,” Clinton said.
“Trump and his employees took advantage of vulnerable Americans encouraging them to max out their credit cards, empty their retirement savings, destroy their financial futures, all while making promises they knew were false from the beginning,” she said.
“This is just more evidence that Donald Trump himself is a fraud. He is trying to scam America the way he scammed all those people at Trump University.”
It’s the latest attack she said his actions demonstrate that Trump is “unqualified and unfit” for the presidency.
The Clinton campaign’s criticism of Trump University began with a lengthy attack on Twitter, where Clinton’s official account labeled the school a “fraud” and a “scam.”
According to article published by CNN, the school is now defunct and what remains is called the Trump Entrepreneur Initiative.
“Confident that voters don’t know enough about Trump U yet. So expect to hear quite a bit more from us on this topic,” Clinton campaign communications director Jennifer Palmieri tweeted.
Clinton’s press secretary, Brian Fallon, tweeted, “Trump U is devastating because it’s metaphor for his whole campaign: promising hardworking Americans way to get ahead, but all based on lies.”
