NEW YORK – Former New York City mayor and top Trump surrogate Rudy Giuliani spoke with Fox & Friends on Thursday about students at many liberal college campuses who are distraught over the election results, and he didn’t pull any punches.
“A number of colleges are offering therapy dogs and hot cocoa … the snowflake students are really upset,” Fox & Friends host Steve Doocy told Giuliani, who laughed out loud at the notion and pondered briefly how such a reaction would have been met during his college years at Manhattan College.

“The reality is they’re a bunch of spoiled crybabies,” Giuliani said.
But Giuliani, who supported Trump throughout his campaign and is rumored for a potential cabinet position in his administration, said he believes many students actually supported the Republican candidate and the traditionally liberal student body in the U.S. is shifting to the right.
“I speak at a lot of college campuses and what I find is, this might be a somewhat heartening fact, we are growing up a slightly higher percentage of conservative students now than we used to because they are rebelling against their professors,” he said.

“And if you’re looking at the real left-wing loonies on the campus it’s the professors, not the students, so (the heartbroken liberal students) are the ones who are probably the ones who are more influenced by their professors than the other students who are starting to realize, hmmm, I got to get a job when I leave here and my friend who graduated last year had to take a job for half of what I thought I was going to make,” Giuliani continued.
“The message of Donald Trump got through to a lot of them,” he said. “A lot more than you think.”
Social justice warriors and other liberal college students are grieving Donald Trump’s historic election win Tuesday over favored Democratic challenger Hillary Clinton, and numerous universities are catering to their emotional needs with everything from Play-Doh and coloring therapy sessions to special safe spaces to process their feelings.
“Today during my office hours, 4PM to 7PM, I will be bringing my personal coloring books, crayons, markers and colored pencils for anyone to use in order to de-stress and relax from the election results,” Plymouth State University community advisor Kirsten Elizabeth recently posted to Facebook.
At Yale University, an economics professor made his mid-term exam optional for those who couldn’t handle the election results, and the University of Kansas sent out a bulletin to remind students that therapy dogs are available to help them cope, EAGnews reports.
University of Michigan officials, meanwhile, offered up space where students “spent the day sprawled around … playing with Play-Doh and coloring in coloring books, as they sought comfort and distraction,” according to the Wall Street Journal.
And at Cornell University, students organized a “cry-in” at the Ho Plaza where their classmates could “come to terms” with a President Donald Trump.
“I’m quite terrified, honestly,” a student said in a video of the event posted to Facebook by the Cornell Daily Sun.
“It’s really hard for me to come to terms with this,” said another. “I think a lot of us are in shock.”
