ABC News(NEW YORK) — Representatives for Donald Trump responded to a series of detailed questions related to the alleged fraud at Trump University not with detailed answers of their own, but with a link to a YouTube video featuring several self-identified former students who praised the now-defunct, highly controversial real estate program.
“The courses that I took were outstanding. They were excellent in terms of the quality of the content,” says one former student, identified as Kent Moyer, founder of the security services firm World Protection Group. “In fact, I still have them on my iTunes and my cell phone and listen to them every once in a while.”
The video was published a day after court documents in a California fraud suit against Trump University were made public, including a statement from a former manager who alleged the program was little more than a money-making “scheme.”
“Based upon my personal experience and employment, I believe that Trump University was a fraudulent scheme, and that it preyed upon the elderly and uneducated to separate them from their money,” said former Trump University Sales Manager Ronald Schnackenberg, according to the documents.
