I thought this would be pretty important to bring up. What Trump is suggesting is the creation of is an institution of online higher-learning (like edX) that will be funded by federal prosecution of the university endowments, that will allow Americans to achieve the equivalent of a bachelor's degree, and it will be recognized across the US by all private institutions and employers.

Now, I'm not going to say this is anything like a done-deal. But I think he's going in a direction that I've already seen industries on the online world already going into. After all, Donald Trump is the founder of Trump University, and look how that turned out.

However, I think this is different because we've already seen that online certification courses and transferrable coursework is already becoming more and more commonplace. He's basically trying to exploit that, and in so doing, massively cut demand for public universities; as well as lower the costs of student loans; and directly attack the University-Political Industrial Complex that has created the middle managerial elite we are already tyrannized by.

IF he gets it done, that's a big deal, and a potential cause of permanent damage to the leftist managerial class.
