Oh, look. Here’s a newspaper ad in the December 2, 2008 edition of the Arizona Republic for Trump University, declaring, “We’ll help you by teaching you how to profit from the $700 billion bailout.”

The ad features Trump promising, “I can turn anyone into a successful real estate investor, even you.” Notice the ad declares, “2008 is the perfect storm for real estate investors!” Of course, the housing markets and commercial real estate markets were crashing as that ad ran, and remained sluggish in most markets for years.
