Trump and the rest of his detestable party are destroying U.S. colleges and universities. This, from the former governor of Wisconsin, is typical hypocrisy.
(And yes—he really tweeted this. I checked.)
short 🧵
My son, who is a high school junior, and I have visited at least a dozen colleges so far and I've scanned and studied the pages of dozens more. I'm honestly in awe of the education and opportunities American colleges and universities have to offer.
But the GOP is opposed to critical thinking, an understanding of this country's history, & discussions about oppression & inequality. What becomes clearer to me every day that this shit show continues is that Trump and his loyal minions want a population entirely at the mercy of a ruling class.
May 13, 2025 20:42Look at what they're doing: targeting public education (and even private universities), threatening health care and the minimal safety net in this country, slashing and eliminating help for those in need, stripping away fundamental human rights.
When this administration refuses to spend funding allocated by Congress, WHAT HAPPENS TO IT? Where is it going?
They are working toward a future where billionaires have everything and the rest of us can scramble for crumbs.
