In a recent post on social media, Trump claimed that Harvard had “lost his way” and did not deserve federal financing.
“Harvard employed almost all the awakened, radical left, idiots and ‘bird brains’ that are capable of teaching only the failure of students and the so -called” future leaders, “Trump wrote. “Just look at the recent past in their plagiated president, who so embarrassed Harvard before the Congress of the United States.
“Harvard is a joke, learns hatred and nonsense and should no longer receive federal means.”
Earlier last week, Fox News Digital talked to students At Harvard about Trump’s recent measures – and they received mixed results.
“In my personal opinion, Harvard deserved everything that happened, everything that hides next to him,” said Carter Stewart, the main classic and a Republican on the campus. “I think Harvard is facing the choice, and they seem to make the wrong choice, which is to double these crazy ideas that most Americans disagree with and pay the price for it.”
“So, I think it’s a good thing that Harvard is forced to put his money where his mouth is,” Stewart added.
Ryan Enos, Professor of the Government at Harvard, offered a different move and said he supported defiance of the school against the Federal Government.
“You should not enter the government and tell a private institution what it can do in its internal affairs,” Enos said. “People have the right to protest in everything they want. I think we have to be very careful that we do not connect these two things, because otherwise we have a danger of doing things like exclusion free speech. “
