The Texas Attorney General’s Office opened a deceptive trade practices investigation of Trump University in 2010 and chased the business out of the state, saying the promises made to students were “virtually impossible to achieve,” according to documents unearthed by a Democratic super PAC.

Assistant Attorney General Rick Berlin wrote to Donald Trump’s lawyers in June 2010 that Trump University seminars – for which students paid thousands of dollars – were targeted at real estate novices and promised "to teach these novices everything they need to know to be a successful residential real estate broker — in 3 days."

But in Texas, "to become licensed as a real estate broker you must have 900 hours of classroom instruction and 2 years selling experience,” Berlin said, in the memo the Democratic super PAC American Bridge 21st Century uncovered through a public records request and provided to USA TODAY. The information given to students by Trump University “is essentially unusable,” and students “will be unable to recoup their investment in the course, much less make a profit, as promised by Trump U,” Berlin wrote.

On Wednesday, Trump's campaign posted a video of three people identified as former Trump University students speaking about how pleased they were with the program. But USA TODAY discovered that the participants in the video all had other ties to Trump, including one whose company makes a protein drink that Trump is selling at several of his properties.

1. Yet the GOP idiots will vote for this man in vast numbers, they are hopeless folks.

Half of them are criminally insane and want to start an armed insurrection and the other half are low information voters that do whatever their party leaders tell them to without a single thought.
