Donald Trump authorized an drone strike that killed Iran’s most beloved military commander, Qassem Soleimani, the leader of the country’s Revolutionary Guard––a move Iran has sworn to avenge.

The survey gave respondents “outstanding,” “above average,” “average,” “below average” or “poor.” A shocking 49% said they thought Trump’s legacy would be considered “poor” by future generations.

Fudan University, a top Chinese university renowned for its liberalism, has removed “freedom of thought” from its charter, replacing it with paragraphs pledging loyalty to the Communist Party.
