SAN DIEGO – For more than six years, Donald Trump fought hard against a lawsuit in which former customers of his now-defunct Trump University accused him of fraud. Less than two weeks after being elected president, he agreed to a $25 million settlement.
“We definitely detected a change of tone and change of approach” after the election, plaintiffs’ attorney Jason Forge said when the agreement was announced Friday.

The Trans-Pacific Partnership can’t go ahead with the approval of two biggest economies involved in the deal – the United States and Japan.
Either could kill a deal designed to be a counterbalance to China’s growing financial and economic influence in the region.
U.S. President Barack Obama said in a public talk that Trump would see the benefits of trade pacts once in office, and spoke behind closed doors to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and other TPP leaders about the future of the deal…
