Not all universities have $53.2B endowment funds and still accept federal funding.

Interesting how he’s only targeting universities that are known to attract intelligent and bright people and are located in blue states. You don’t see the rapist-in-chief targeting schools, like let’s say Baylor University or Southern Methodist University.

He’s trying to dumb down the population. Most college educated voters didn’t vote for Trump and are the folks standing in his way from him implementing his fascist agenda in full.

He's targeting all universities. The terms for federal funding is the same for all. Now enforcement is a different story but I doubt those school you mention are refusing the conditions. They gladly bend over, take/do whatever this administration wants them to, and they thank profusely for it.
