Trump: ‘Taxpayer Dollars Should Not Subsidize Anti-First Amendment Institutions’

‘Universities that want taxpayer dollars should promote free speech, not silence free speech’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: “I said, you have a better chin than Muhammad Ali. You see the cowbell scene. You saw that horrible scene. That was a disgraceful thing. At a school. At a university. Under the guise of speech codes and safe spaces and trigger warnings, these universities have tried to restrict free thought, impose total conformity and shut down the voices of great young Americans like those here today. All of that changes starting right now. We’re dealing with billions and billions and billions of dollars.

(Applause)

Taxpayer dollars should not subsidize anti-First Amendment institutions, and that's exactly what they are. Anti-First Amendment. Universities that want taxpayer dollars should promote free speech, not silence free speech.”
