Former President Donald Trump promised to end tax advantages from universities that promote anti-Semitism if elected following recent controversial comments from heads of schools that sparked public outcry across the nation.

During his campaign rally in Durham, New Hampshire, on Dec. 16, President Trump told his supporters that he would remove tax favors as well as take away endowments from those colleges that “attack free speech” and discriminate against conservatives, Christians, and Jews.
