Harvard. Top of the line. Maybe he will run for Political office after he graduates.....
He'll actually have to do college-level school work. When he drops out because it's too hard, no one will be surprised.

He'll drop out and claim it's because he wants more time for his "activism."

Yes, jealous people tend to do that. It’s easier than getting off the couch and accomplishing things yourself.

Seriously though, is Ingraham’s name going to be dragged into every accomplishment this kid ever makes? That seems unfair to him and truly, quite petty overall. She made a crappy comment about the kid. He retaliated. They both went on with their lives. Everyone else should, too.
Yep. That is called history, and that is how it has been recorded. Ingraham is going to have to forever suffer the indignity of a professional woman being knocked off her high horse by a mere high school kid.

Next time she should pick on someone she can handle.

Indeed, Kushner's father's donation made it easier (financially) for Harvard to serve poor students/run the university, while Hogg will likely be a financial burden (or helped by the Kushner donation).
So, in other words, with enough money you can buy your way into the school of your choice, and if you are poor, you need to go to work flipping burgers.

Kushner's money will help pay for Hogg. That's called poetic justice.

According to the "conservative" line, he wasn't even supposed to be able to get into college. Now he's going to Harvard. What will the spin be when he graduates *** laude or above...?

Perhaps an asterisk beside his name whenever they mention his time at Harvard?

Correction. He WAS being used. The Media used him for his fifteen minutes then spit him out. He is more irrelevant than that the women that was paid to falsely accused Kavanaugh. I don't even remember her name.
