BBB calls out trump on his lies

In a statement, the BBB addresses 7 major points both clarifying the reality for Trump and for the way that the BBB makes its ratings determinations. First, “BBB did not send a document of any kind to the Republican debate site last Thursday evening. The document presented to debate moderators did not come from the BBB that night,” they said in the statement.

Second, “Trump University does not currently have an A rating with BBB. The BBB Business Review for this company has continually been ‘No Rating’ since September 2015. Prior to that, it fluctuated between D- and A+.”

Further, the BBB says that “At no point did BBB change the rating of Trump University based upon a demand from anyone.” Instead they formulate their rankings on an evaluation process during which time they got “multiple customer complaints.”

The BBB gave Trump U a D-rating in 2010. But the BBB has a 3-year cap on ratings, so complaints older than 3 years automatically drop off. As Trump U was winding down and the complaints fell off, the Trump U rating went up because there were no students still attending to complain, the BBB said.

“As a result, over time, Trump University’s BBB rating went to an A in July 2014 and then to an A+ in January 2015.”
 
None of this will have the slightest effect on the fanatics who believe in Trump much in the way an appreciable segment of closed-minded Germans believed in Hitler -- and I'm not making an extreme comparison. While there obviously are substantial differences in the material and the social character of contemporary America and Germany of the 1930s, there are unmistakable similarities in the collective mentality of certain segments of the respective populations.

I would call it the concentration camp mentality. While there are relatively few who would openly express such an aggressively intolerant position they quietly support it and would vote to implement it. And while Trump has done all but openly call for such a solution to America's population problems there is no question that it is clearly in line with his thinking.

What are your thoughts on the prospect of implementing concentration camps to deal with illegal immigration -- and other problems?
 
Trump's "university" began winding down in 2010, when it received a D- rating due to numerous complaints.

Trump’s education company, which effectively ceased operations sometime after 2010, is the subject of three active lawsuits, including one by the New York State Attorney General seeking $40 million in damages for people who were affected by the program.

New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman launched an investigation into the program in 2011, and filed the lawsuit against it and Trump in 2013, accusing the now-defunct school of "engaging in specific fraudulent, deceptive and illegal acts."

So, while he had customers, he got D-, when he was closing down and had NO customers, that is when he go A+?

Once the ratings are 3 years old they are dropped. Which explains how they went up after 2013
