Trump promises to launch free online university where support for 'jihadists' is outlawed

As the son who bears his name testified in the New York City courtroom where Donald Trump is being sued for fraud, the former president Wednesday dropped a Truth Social video detailing plans for a new public university that he said would not condone support of “savages and jihadists.”

“Americans have been horrified to see students and faculty at Harvard and other once-respected universities expressing support for the savages and jihadists who attacked Israel,” Trump wrote.

“They’re turning our students into Communists and terrorist sympathizers. It’s time to offer something dramatically different…’THE AMERICAN ACADEMY.’”

The video that follows details what the American Academy would offer, and who would pay for it.

The free, online university would be funded by the “billions and billions of dollars” Trump says he’ll win by suing, fining and taxing private school endowments.

American Academy's curriculum would cover ancient civilizations, skilled job training and everything in between — with one exception.

“It will be strictly non-political,” Trump said. “There will be no wokeness or jihadism allowed.”

Educational resources would include study groups, mentors, industry partnerships and “the latest breakthroughs in computing,” Trump said.

“Enjoy it,” Trump said. “Learn from it.”

Trump boasted American Academy would be “dramatically different” but, as a Trump-led online institution offering mentorships and job trainings, it recollects another failed Trump endeavor.

Americans who followed the downfall of Trump University probably learned how the online for-profit university promised free courses where instructors upsold apprenticeships that came with hefty price tags.

A "mentorship" cost $10,000 and the "Gold Elite Package" cost $35,000. Staff were asked to entertain a “sales mindset” and come prepared to “Sell! Sell! Sell!”

The school, founded in 2005, was hit with three lawsuits between 2010 and 2013 that concluded with Trump agreeing to pay a $25 million settlement to those who attended in the three years before it closed in 2011.
