Washington | President Donald Trump floated a new plan on Monday (Tuesday AEST) for the $US3 billion ($4.6 billion) he wants to strip from Harvard University, saying in a social media post that he was thinking about using the money to fund vocational schools.

“I am considering taking THREE BILLION DOLLARS of Grant Money away from a very antisemitic Harvard, and giving it to TRADE SCHOOLS all across our land,” Trump posted on Truth Social, his social media platform.
