Edumacayshun, Rump Style

Orangutan-human hybrid and unrepentant birther (excepting Ted "Calgary" Cruz) Donald "Rump" Trump is being sued by the State of New York for $40 million for consumer deception in connection with his "Trump University" grift.  Thousands of people paid millions of dollars for courses offered by "Trump University" which turned out to be virtually useless, for promising career opportunities that never materialized, and other shell games, according to the suit.  For example, instead of a promised meet-and-greet with Rump, "graduates" were photographed with a cutout figure of the narcissistic tycoon.

Rump wants the world to think he's a self-made tycoon, when in fact his father was a multi-millionaire developer who put his son in charge of the business.  After Rump Sr. died leaving a fortune of some $400 million,  Rump Jr. had to declare bankruptcy four times, using bankruptcy laws to reduce his debt liability.  If anyone thought that Rump wanted to educate them, rather than just take their money, they ended up getting their degree at the School of Hard Knocks.

UPDATE:  We'd love to see a bowl matchup between the Trump University Orangemen and the Glenn Beck University Fightin' Suckers...
