The document was carefully written to look innocuous and reasonable (unlike most Trump communications). However, a close reading indicates that it's a clever trap that gives the government a great deal more power and oversight. Combined with the known ideology of Trump's supporters, it's not hard to see that the document was not intended to be a simple, good-faith attempt at undoing some of modern academia's excesses.

I agree with many of the principles in the document, but I'm good at reading between the lines and determining the true intent of the authors.
