http://bipartisanreport.com/2016/06/01/breaking-ny-attorney-general-announces-fraud-lawsuit-against-donald-trump-to-begin-video/The Attorney General of the State of New York is determined to follow through with his lawsuit against the man who could become the next president of the United States, presumptive Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump.
The civil suit is over the fraud that the attorney general, Eric Schneiderman, and others allege was the basis for Trumps seminar program called Trump University. A similar suit is currently underway in the state of California....
Now, of course, part of the big problem is that the voters who are going all in for Trump dont seem to be turned off from the candidates steam roller campaign by anything like this, or rather these, lawsuits. And in addition to Trumps maintenance of his base, poll numbers which have Trump coming neck and neck with Clinton indicate that much of the Republican Party is slowly but surely uniting behind him. Trump is the candidate of the GOPs ideology, so at the base few Republican voters have much to say against him.
Trump presents Republican voters with a unique dilemma that is slowly but surely being resolved in their minds. If people were still willing to vote for him after he called Mexicans rapists and criminals, made obscenely sexist comments over and over again, and mocked a disabled reporter, those voters are still going to back him in the face of a civil suit brought by a Democratic State Attorney General.

And they think the Donald will crush him like a cage match.

(8,732 posts)2. His fans will think as much of it
As Clinton supporters think of the FBI investigation: it's a vast conspiracy against us and dismiss it as irrelevant.
My opinion, FWIW, to both camps is that pretending it isn't real or false won't make it go away.
