U.S. President Donald Trump wrote on Monday morning that he is thinking of taking $3 billion in grant money from “a very antisemitic” Harvard University and “giving it to trade schools all across our land.”

“What a great investment that would be for the United States, and so badly needed,” the president stated.

Some 15 minutes later, Trump stated that “we are still waiting for the foreign student lists from Harvard so that we can determine, after a ridiculous expenditure of billions of dollars, how many radicalized lunatics, troublemakers all, should not be let back into our country.”

The Trump administration has announced in recent months that it intends to withhold more than $2.5 billion in funding to Harvard, to audit some $9 billion in grants to the school and is canceling Harvard’s ability to enrol foreign students.
