Why would that be a joke? Its well known that populations with higher education levels tend to vote more often for the Democrats.

I wonder how long it will take before the tabloid media spins this as "Trumps promotes far right hate speech in schools", or some nonsense like that.
Just noise, safe to just completely and utterly ignore it.

Trump does not get to define free speech, nor can he withhold funding .

This is simply stages yet another pointless battle Trump will lose, the man is wholly ignorant as to the limits of his powers.

He did on conservative news networks; absolutely.

That's a condescending post right there. Pot meet kettle.

Continuing with the list...

Students did disrupt a presentation by UC Chancellor Nicholas Dirks, and in the aftermath, the university identified the participants who hijacked the event and banned them from all future Berkeley Forum events. This is not a situation in which the university’s administration should be blamed for stifling freedom of speech. The speaker in this case was an employee of the university, for goodness sake!

Can you list the " true journalists"..

I doubt you will because you know we will be able to prove beyond doubt that your "true" journalists are in fact frauds.
A few years ago we saw virtually all Trump supporters retreat to fantasies... This is why trumpers need to lie and attack honest journalism round the globe.

This has absolutely nothing to do with the topic at hand. President Trump was recorded saying these things in a rambling two-hour speech at CPAC. There has been plenty of editorializing from media personalities in the aftermath, but the reporting of his statement that he would be signing an executive order pulling federal research funding from universities that do not support freedom of speech (whatever that really means) is NOT fake news.

Well anyone from CNN is a fake journalist. A woman pointed out when Trump gave his news conference in Korea journalists from other countries wanted to hear about the conference. Acosta asked about the Cohen fiasco going on. She was embarrassed for our so called journalists. But Acosta likes to turn each Q&A into the Jim Acosta show.
