Trump Has Plans A Free Online University Where 'Wokeness Or Jihadism' Won't Be Allowed

Former President Donald Trump plans to create a free university called the American Academy, which will offer a top-tier education option covering a wide range of subjects.
Trump aims to compete with the existing four-year university system by granting students degree credentials that the U.S. Government and federal contractors will recognize. The American Academy will be funded through fines and lawsuits imposed on wealthy private universities.
The proposal comes at a time of increasing scrutiny on U.S. Universities, particularly their responses to international incidents. Trump criticizes some universities for their support of attacks on Israel and claims that current higher education is turning students into communists and terrorists.
