Ah, well any of us can sue our govt if it refuses to actually do something that law mandates it do. Kim Davis, for example. But, generally to demand more funding for something like schools ... that ain't going nowhere.
That's an interesting though. My state is pushing hard for private, for profit, schools to compete with failing public schools. Personally, I think we should expand letting college kids work off their loans as teachers. But, could private schools be sued for kids failing to learn? Hmmm.EDUCATIONAL MALPRACTICE: WHEN CAN JOHNNY SUE?

No parent has successfully sued a public school system because after 12 years Johnny can't read -- why is Trump University different?
We do have public schools where the mission is more about people having jobs than educating kids, but teachers will consistently tell you that the most important thing is to have parents who demand their kids work.
In the "Age of Envy" anything private, for profit is seeing as evil giving "judges" the license to create a double standard. The public school bureaucrats intentions are pure as the driven snow. Private entrepreneurs are guilty of fraud.
.
There's no "creating" a double standard. Traditionally, government is immune from most civil suits for money. That really doesn't have much to do with why some public school systems are spectacular failures.
If the state government decide to enter the "education" business then courts must conclude that the waived their 11th Amendment immunity defense.
Don't fucking tell me that private enterprises are liable but public entities are not.
State, and local, govts have been in "the education biz" since the founding.

Trump University was never licensed or accredited. So, why wouldn't Trump be liable?
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman Says Trump University Was 'Straight Up Fraud'
Assuming, that is a valid issue, why are public schools which are licensed and accredited , NOT liable?
Duh, ain't we talking about Trump University...?

No sir, government education was seen as dangerous.
But finally the socialists , aka, the progressives prevailed. The educators unions , the NEA , was also a factor. Indiana was the last state to recognize government education in 1909.
Trump is lying to us the same way he sold students who were dumb enough to sign up for Trump U.One has to fulfill pre requisites to enter Real schools ..not just have a credit card ..get real..deal with it..WHY are public schools and state bureaucrats different?

Seriously I cannot fathom where you get some of your notions from.
The first American schools in the thirteen original colonies opened in the 17th century. Boston Latin School was founded in 1635 and is both the first public school and oldest existing school in the United States.[1] The first tax-supported public school was opened in Dedham, Massachusetts, in 1644 and was run by Rev. Ralph Wheelock.[2] Cremin (1970) stresses that colonists tried at first to educate by the traditional English methods of family, church, community, and apprenticeship, with schools later becoming the key agent in "socialization." At first, the rudiments of literacy and arithmetic were taught inside the family, assuming the parents had those skills. Literacy rates were much higher in New England, and much lower in the South. By the mid-19th century, the role of the schools had expanded to such an extent that many of the educational tasks traditionally handled by parents became the responsibility of the schools.[3][4]
First Boston Latin School House
All the New England colonies required towns to set up schools, and many did so. In 1642 the Massachusetts Bay Colony made "proper" education compulsory; other New England colonies followed. Similar statutes were adopted in other colonies in the 1640s and 1650s. The schools were all male and all white, with few facilities for girls.[5] In the 18th century, "common schools," appeared; students of all ages were under the control of one teacher in one room. Although they were publicly supplied at the local (town) level, they were not free, and instead were supported by tuition or "rate bills."
The larger towns in New England opened grammar schools, the forerunner of the modern high school.[6] The most famous was the Boston Latin School, which is still in operation as a public high school. Hopkins School in New Haven, Connecticut, was another. By the 1780s, most had been replaced by private academies. By the early 19th century New England operated a network of elite private high schools, now called "prep schools," typified by Phillips Andover Academy (1778), Phillips Exeter Academy (1781), and Deerfield Academy (1797). They became the major feeders for Ivy League colleges in the mid-19th century.[7] They became coeducational in the 1970s, and remain highly prestigious in the 21st century.[8][9]
Maybe it's the legacy of Reagan, in which government cannot ever, possibly, be a good solution to some problem. But it's just wrong.

Trump University: the proving ground for Donald Trump's campaign pitch
Long before Donald Trump promised to make America great again, he told people that he could change their lives, provide “an answer to their problems” and allow them to “enjoy everlasting financial security”.
Those who signed up were told: “Only doers get rich. I know that in these three packed days, you will learn everything to make a million dollars within the next 12 months.” Cost of his class $35,000
Potential students were subject to high-pressure sales pitches where they were told “Your plan is BROKEN and WE WILL help you fix it” and encouraged to put the cost of Trump courses on their personal credit cards.
Trump’s language on the campaign trail offers the same promises and assurances that all their problems are easily solvable.
The secret to these plans and many others, including bringing back manufacturing jobs to the US and “bombing the hell out of Isis”, is Trump’s self-proclaimed ability to make deals. Just as prospective students at Trump University were promised wealth by using a “Trump mentor” to learn how to invest the “Trump way”, voters are promised that by supporting Trump instead of politics as usual, they can turn their lives around.
The question still to be answered is whether Republican primary voters will be more satisfied with their decision than Trump University students.
Advice to The Democrat Party:
You're overpaying your bloggers. For a fraction of what you're spending you could buy a herd of robots that would even write their own material which would sound so much more original than the repetitious stuff the current crew is churning out.
Or....wait........is it just that you already did that but can't figure out how to download the updates?
He certainly isn't personally...
He's been an amazing teacher to the liberal social justice mob and media. The medicine hasn't tasted good, but damn has it been a blast for the rest.
