The Better Business Bureau is firing back against Donald Trump and “a number of inaccurate reports that continued to be repeated” related to the Republican presidential front-runner’s now-defunct Trump University.
In a lengthy statement released Tuesday by the BBB, the organization said it “did not send a document of any kind to the Republican debate site last Thursday” despite Trump’s claim that his campaign received a fax from the BBB during the GOP debate confirming Trump University’s “A+ rating.” A video captured by Independent Journal Review showed Trump handing a faxed document to the three debate moderators during a commercial break.
“The document presented to debate moderators did not come from BBB that night,” the organization said Tuesday. “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+,” the BBB noted.
