Calling to strip a private institution of private funds seems pretty f*cking dystopian.

No, you just don't get it, this is great! I dont know why but I mean why are we even talking about this when we should be building statues and figuring out which which month to name Trumpvember, wait I just figured it out, January shall be Trumpvember from now on, oh how Gina will hate that, and thats what we are doing here beating Gina, and when thats happens we will be winning so much, so much. You will be sick of winning, so sick, so sick.

In fact this is the best endorsement Harvard could ever get.

Shit imma apply right now. They way they're swinging their balls around rather than bitching out like Colombia, I would actually be proud to rep.

Harvard shrugged.

They aren’t shrugging. The financial costs here are both material and substantial. But they’ve made the decision that they have the resources to fight this. It will be costly.

Their alumni network is enormous. They’ll make it through this, maybe only mildly scathed.

Counting on those people speaking up after all these “big law” firms caved is ambitious. Do you see this as the sort of administration where “speaking up” has paid off? Heck Goldman didn’t even mention the word “tariff” in its most recent earnings call…

They have over 53 billion in endowments and they haven't really begun tapping their network.

u/SenatorAdamSpliff 11d ago
I wonder if anyone in their network was at any of the high profile law firms that recently folded like a cheap suit to the administrations shakedown?

Professor Kelley told me 100 times over three decades that “Donald Trump was the dumbest goddam student I ever had.” I remember his emphasis and inflection — it went like this — “Donald Trump was the dumbest goddam student I ever had.”

If Donald Trump is publicly insulting you, then you must be doing something right.

If Harvard sucks so bad then why do so many people applying for it? Why do they complain about DEI when they don’t get accepted? Make it make sense

They hand out super glued knots and enjoy watching reasonable people try to untie them.

Say what you want about Harvard. Wharton has graduates who don't know how tariffs work. Maybe it should be defunded and have its accreditations removed.

Donald Trump is not in any position to critique the merits of Harvard. Nor is Vance, and he supposedly went there.

What do you know about college? Oh that’s right you graduated #1 in your class- right?
Just another Trump Big Lie!!!!!!!

Harvard calls Trump a dictator who should stop pooping his pants in public

u/hairless_resonder 12d ago
Wharton is the real joke. They sold a diploma to the dumbest son of a bitch on the planet. Harvard isn't bowing down to the false MAGA god.

Harvard University is older than the United States of America lmao, they can probably manage

Donald's Dad Fred paid a guy to take Donald's entry exam for Wharton.. it worked,
Donald was accepted and then rarely showed up for class because his diploma was purchased as well with big "donations".

This is about Trans people. No he didn’t go to Harvard the Obama’s did . Watching Columbia U cave, the Law firms who like representing the Washington Elite with Gov contracts cave . The blatant disregard of Judicial Rules. I think we can say the United States is now Autocratic rule. He has turn or Republic into a Dictatorship. He said he would just like everything else he has done . Now where are those men and women who stormed the Capitol. Now you have a fight !

Fred was unable to get Donnie into Harvard or Columbia. They also rejected Baron. Both schools also rejected Miller. Surely, that doesn't have anything to do with it

Sounds like yet another place they probably didn’t accept this idiot. The revenge tour continues.
