At other schools, Trump has been outraged by Democratic candidates who have since dropped out of the presidential race earlier this year, the news sites reported. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., raised more than $24,000 at the University of Cincinnati while his supporters donated $3,300 to Trump.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., Andrew Yang and Pete Buttigieg also overplayed Trump.
