But RC Bracco has no credibility; he hasn't made $8 billion and or created a successful reality TV show, as far as we know!
If you look around on YouTube, there's a video of Trump testifying before a Congressional committee (around 1990-91) about real estate and construction in New York City. It makes a much stronger impression than his political rhetoric.
Also, your characterization of Trump supporters is offensive! (Just joking)... But I do think it's incorrect. He has a wide support base which seems to include a substantial proportion of college grads. When I think about my conversations with people who support Hillary Clinton (not the cynical ones who feel they have no choice -- I mean the actual believers), I want to puke.
How do you know what I have done in my life? The Dump has ripped off people on his way to that $8 billion and if that is what you want as a President then you are welcome to it.
Right, well the odds are, um, sort of against you (or anybody encountered on a chatboard) having made $8 billion -- tack the reality show on there as well and the odds go down further; you might just get the idea that I wasn't seriously questioning what you've done with your life.
In any case, the answer to your question is "no," I don't care that there are allegations that Trump University ripped people off. This country has too much $hit on its plate to continually disqualify candidates from political office for conduct which is a political gotcha and doesn't bear on their efficacy as President. If Bill Clinton ran today, he wouldn't stand a chance. (Granted, he may be an extreme case.)
So, Trump's business is no doubt a scam, since anything claimed by John Oliver must be true. But, his narrative doesn't seem to be catching on. He certainly rallied the base, I'll give him that.
