President Donald Trump’s historic victory on Tuesday left a lot of leftists reeling, and perhaps nowhere was this more obvious than in the realm of academia.
One University of Oregon administrator reacted with a profane social media rant aimed at Trump supporters. To their credit, his superiors reacted by placing him on administrative leave.
As KATU reported:
“Do something, because you are f***ing stupid,” Leonard Serrato, an assistant director for fraternity and sorority affairs at the school, said in an Instagram story shared by Grabien. “And I hope you go jump off of a f***ing bridge.”
Earlier in the video, he said Trump’s voters can “go f***” themselves.”
“I say this in the most disrespectful way possible: I don’t care if you are my family. I don’t care if you are my friend. I don’t care if we’ve been friends our entire lives. You can literally go f*** yourself if you voted for Donald Trump,” Serrato said.
He continued, telling people who are sad about expensive grocery costs to “get a better f***ing paying job” or a “f***ing education.”
His rhetoric sparked significant social media backlash:

Leonard Serrato shared a disgusting video, and is now trying to hide it from the internet.
Unfortunately for him, I'm on the case. We can't tolerate this nonsense! pic.twitter.com/4Jx6uUYzyJ

@uoregon has he been fired or, at the bare minimum, been suspended? How would a white Republican student feel safe in this man’s care? We need answers immediately #leonardserrato pic.twitter.com/gcXfOhTZey

Of course, this is far from the only incident of election-induced hysteria at U.S. universities.
As the New York Post reported:
Georgetown University’s McCourt School of Public Policy — a crucible for our nation’s next generation of elected officials and diplomats that runs a cool $61,200 per year to attend — has opened the “woke” apolitical cocoons to cater to students for whom political discourse is simply too overwhelming.
“In recognition of these stressful times, all McCourt community members are welcome to gather … in the 3rd floor Commons to take a much needed break, joining us for mindfulness activities and snacks throughout the day,” wrote Jaclyn Clevenger, the school’s director of student engagement, in an email to students and obtained by The Free Press.
The mainstream media has also been in a state of panic since the election, as this video details:
