This is indeed a moment of truth for Harvard — and for American higher education as well as science, medicine, technology, and the humanities. If the richest university in the world submits to lawless extortion by the Cult of Trump, we are truly sunk. We must be clear: Veritas is not for sale.

"When he said, 'I have the highest poll numbers of any Republican for the last 100 years,' that wasn’t just wrong, it was the opposite of reality: At this point in their terms, every other GOP president since the dawn of modern polling has had more support than him." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

Trump and his team pretend he’s riding a wave of popularity (but he’s not)
To defend Trump’s third term ambitions, the GOP keeps pointing to polls, which are a) irrelevant, and b) less impressive than they claim.
