Can Trump give Harvard's funding to trade schools? Education experts say it may not be that easy.

President Trump on Monday said he's weighing whether to redirect $3 billion in grant money for Harvard University to trade schools across the U.S., but education experts say that process faces significant obstacles. 

Mr. Trump's comment, which was made on social media, comes as he escalates his attacks on the Ivy League school. Last week, the Trump administration moved to block Harvard from enrolling international students, and the president has taken other steps to freeze billions of dollars in Harvard's federal funding, as he claims the institution has not done enough to address anti-semitism on its campus. 

On Tuesday, the Trump administration wrote in a letter that all federal agencies should consider canceling their government contracts with Harvard, or move them to other organizations.
