A University of Oregon official who told voters of President-elect Donald Trump "go f*** yourself" and "go jump off of a f***ing bridge" is no longer at the college, KDRV-TV reported. As Blaze News previously reported, student newspaper the Daily Emerald said assistant director of fraternity and sorority life Leonard Serrato posted an Instagram story after Trump handily beat Democratic nominee Kamala Harris in November's presidential election.
The paper said Serrato told his followers — some of whom are Oregon students — "You can literally go f*** yourself if you voted for Donald Trump. If you are so sad about your groceries being expensive, get a better f***ing paying job. Do better in life. Get a f***ing education. Do something, 'cause you’re f***ing stupid." Before he made a sideways peace sign, the video rant ended with him saying, "And I hope you go jump off of a f***ing bridge."
A longer video of Serrato's rant begins with the following: "I'm done crying. My sadness is over. My anger has set in. I am a very petty person, and I am very proud of that. Love it about myself, actually. And so, I say this in the most disrespectful way possible: I don't care if you are my family. I don't care if you are my friend. I don't care if we've been friends our entire lives."
The Daily Emerald said Serrato soon made his Instagram account private and declined to comment to the paper. Soon after Serrato's video rant went viral, the university placed him on administrative leave.
and this interesting note,
The now-former official also is a hazing prevention speaker who reportedly did jail time over a fatal hazing incident at a fraternity in 2012.
Some one should look into UO's hiring practices.
