President Donald Trump and his Republican allies repeatedly lament that college and university campuses are hotbeds for liberal indoctrination, political correctness, and so-called "cancel culture."

Some of the universities' offenses include not allowing Nazis to give speeches to their students, teaching comprehensively about structural racism, and taking steps to make their student body more reflective of the nation.


The President took to Twitter on Friday, accusing universities of prioritizing "Radical Left Indoctrination" over substantive education.


The President knows a thing or two about universities.

He launched Trump University in 2005. Initially, the program was based online before expanding to in-person teaching on real estate investment.

In advertising materials, Trump boasted:

"I can turn anyone into a successful real estate investor, including you."

Students began spending thousands of dollars for classes they would later describe as useless, and some eventually filed a class action lawsuit accusing Trump of fraud, false advertisement, and racketeering.

A federal judge—whom Trump said was biased because of his Mexican heritage—approved the payment of a $25 million settlement from Trump to thousands of students.

People remembered this when Trump accused universities of not prioritizing education.







IRC Section 501(c)(3) allows tax exemptions for most universities and colleges due to their educational purposes, but Trump threatened to reexamine that status based on what he perceives to be "Radical Left Indoctrination."

That claim didn't go over well.




According to Jason Stanley, author of How Fascism Works, anti-intellectualism is crucial for upholding fascist ideologies.

Comedian Brent Terhune had social media users rolling after he posted a parody video in which he pretended to be the one driving "Garbage Force One" during Trump's Wisconsin stunt on Wednesday.

Upon arriving in Green Bay, Wisconsin for an evening rally, Trump almost fell getting into a campaign-branded garbage truck. He eventually managed to step into the truck, engaging in a quick conversation with reporters as he peered out the window—a scene reminiscent of his recent staged photo op at a McDonald's in Pennsylvania earlier this month.
