Bill Maher defends Trump’s university fight: ‘They became indoctrination factories’Comedian Bill Maher defended President Trump’s fight against higher education, saying college campuses have become “indoctrination factories” in need of a wake-up call.In the latest episode of HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher,” the host said he doesn’t agree with the president’s approach, but he said he agrees with some of the criticism motivating the effort.“I’m not totally against it. Academia needed a hot poker up the ass,” Maher said. “I’m not saying— not everything, the way he’s doing it, of course, is the right way. You know, to defund scientific research is not the way to do it,” Maher said.“But, I mean, our universities have been out of control for a long time. They became indoctrination factories,” Maher added. “There’s absolutely no diversity of thought.”Trump has long pledged to get rid of “woke” culture in America’s colleges and universities, which Republicans accuse of being a bedrock of “leftist ideology.”
