Trump is fulfilling an education promise Republicans made for decades

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

80% : On this point, President Trump and Secretary McMahon have a unique understanding of two essential practices: political theater and political leverage.
58% : In the same way, President Trump, who prides himself on his negotiation tactics, understands that he holds all the leverage.
54% : Likewise, on higher education, the new administration has taken unprecedented action, pausing billions of dollars in funding to Harvard, Columbia and Princeton, in part because these universities have violated the Civil Rights Act and continued to support discriminatory DEI programs.
45% : Although the inciting incident in the recent conflict is the explosion of antisemitism on elite campuses, the Trump administration understands that anti­semitism is merely a "nesting doll" for anti-white and anti-Western ideologies, which have been heavily subsidized with public dollars.
35% : To truly transform education, Trump and McMahon must hold tough in their negotiations with the Ivy League, persuade Congress to permanently dissolve the Department of Education, and advance an alternative vision for the institutions.
