Donald Trump and his feud with Harvard University have a lot to do with how the controversial topic of anti-semitism has changed American schools, at least this was the take of a political reporter talking to analyst Stephen A. Smith.
In a recent episode of “The Stephen A. Smith Show,” political reporter Eliza Collins got honest in an interview with the ESPN analyst on her take on the issue of Donald Trump and his long-running feud with Harvard University.
“I mean, I think we’ve just seen Harvard, at least in court related to these international students, they say these students are, you know, instrumental in making Harvard, Harvard,” Collins said. “Harvard of course, is an elite university. So they have really smart people from around the world. They have incredible athletes. I’m not sure if they’ve made the exact case, saying this is why we have so many. They’re not the only school.”
“Most of these Ivy League schools have large populations of international students, as do a lot of these sort of state Ivies like UC Berkeley or Michigan. They’ve just, over the years, become really reliant. I’m sure a large part of it is their funding, and then of course, you know they’re bringing in smart students.”
“Now the government, as you said, sort of this America first agenda,” Collins went on, “Steve Bannon told me that when he was talking about this idea in Trump 1.0, far before the conversation about anti-semitism, he felt like students in American universities were becoming anti-American. And so this really goes back to exactly what you’re saying to that nationalist idea of who is American and who is patriotic, and that is a priority for Trump.”
Donald Trump Shares Joe Biden Conspiracy Theory
President Donald Trump recently reposted a baseless claim on Truth Social, alleging that Joe Biden was “executed in 2020” and replaced by artificial substitutes. The post, originally shared by an anonymous user, suggested that Biden had been replaced by “clones, doubles, and robotic engineered soulless mindless entities.”
Despite the absurdity of the claim, Trump’s repost quickly gained traction among his followers, sparking further speculation. The White House has yet to respond to inquiries regarding Trump’s endorsement of this false narrative.
Trump has a history of amplifying misinformation and conspiracy theories throughout his political career. He has repeatedly insisted, without evidence, that he won the 2020 presidential election, a claim that contributed to the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021. His administration and allies have also promoted controversial theories, including accusations that the Biden administration has weaponized federal agencies against him.
In recent weeks, Donald Trump has made statements on Biden’s mental acuity and physical health, questioning the legitimacy of presidential signatures made using an autopen.
