Harvard a Joke’: Donald Trump Rants Against ‘Radical Left, Woke Birdbrains’ Teaching ‘Hate’ to Students
In a fiery social media post that quickly made headlines, former President Donald Trump lashed out at Harvard University, branding the prestigious Ivy League institution a "joke" and accusing its faculty of spreading hate and radical leftist ideology.
On his Truth Social platform, Trump made comments that were critical of what he said was a growing culture of "wokeness" in higher education. "Run by radical left, woke birdbrains who are teaching our kids to hate America," he wrote. "Harvard has become a joke." "It used to be a place of great learning. Now it’s a breeding ground for division, weakness, and Marxist nonsense."
The former president’s tirade appears to be part of his broader campaign rhetoric ahead of the 2024 election, in which he has repeatedly attacked elite institutions and accused them of indoctrinating students. Trump has long positioned himself as a crusader against political correctness and cancel culture, themes that continue to resonate with his base.
Even though Trump didn't mention a specific incident at Harvard, his remarks come amid ongoing debates about free speech, diversity policies, and the Israel-Palestine conflict at several universities. Critics of Trump’s remarks argue that his rhetoric is divisive and undermines academic freedom. Faculty members and students have taken to social media to defend the university and its commitment to open dialogue and rigorous scholarship. Harvard officials have not issued a formal response to his statement. This latest attack underscores Trump’s strategy of using elite institutions as political punching bags, a tactic that has proven effective among conservative voters who view such universities as out of touch with everyday Americans.
As the election season heats up, expect more culture war flashpoints—especially as Trump continues to use high-profile platforms to voice his grievances against what he sees as the “woke takeover” of American life.
