Hillary Clinton just retweeted Mitt Romney
Just when you thought the 2016 race couldn't get any stranger, Hillary Clinton goes and approvingly retweets Mitt Romney. Apparently, there's one thing the likely 2016 Democratic nominee and the 2012 Republican presidential nominee can agree on: Donald Trump.
Here's what I know. Donald Trump is a phony, a fraud. His promises are as worthless as a degree from Trump University. (1/2)

Clinton's retweet followed a Twitter rant of her own about Trump University, in which she slammed Trump's for-profit education company as nothing more than a "scam":
Trump University was a fraudulent scheme used to prey upon those who could least afford it. https://t.co/oz5ycvA2J1 pic.twitter.com/9ue4nVEdwt

Trump University's own employees described it as a "scam.” https://t.co/xDeDI1sPpR pic.twitter.com/qA2MtslUVs

New documents confirm Trump "University" was a scam that preyed on families to make money. Caution—may cause nausea. https://t.co/d2qYRLKsou

The gist: Trump's for-profit university deceived & exploited students to take their money.
And he has the gall to call the media "sleazy."— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) June 1, 2016
The renewed discussion follows Tuesday's release of 381 previously sealed documents about the $35,000 real estate class, with the latest in the lawsuit accusing Trump University of defrauding its students and leaving them saddled with debt. The university shut down in 2011 following scrutiny from the New York Department of Education.
No word yet on why Clinton was digging through Romney's Twitter archive all the way back to March 3.
