You know who I'm talking about. The ones who get all bent out of shape because some of the students don't want a Nazi on campus, especially when his honorarium is paid out of student fees. "Free speech!" I'm sure they'll be all over this, right?

I have a suspicion though that trump is trying to provoke fistfights. Nixon did that with union construction workers in NYC.

They're going to pressure the kids to not voice their opinions in public. Way to allow the kids their voices here.
