Opinion: NYU Should Rip Trump Backer’s Name Off Its New ‘Death Star’
A dozen blocks uptown from Donald Trump’s trial stands a black behemoth that New York University named after a hedge-fund billionaire the former president has admiringly nicknamed “Money Machine.”
“John A. Paulson Center” reads the white letters affixed to the black glass facade at the building’s main entrances—name-checking an alum who is bankrolling Trump’s terrifying attempt to retake the White House.
While many of the students walking in and out of the center had no idea who it is named after or what that person stands for, the building has acquired a nickname among neighborhood preservationists.
