Protests could impact Election 2024

The Campus Protests Could Impact the 2024 Election

Some want President Biden to take a harder line to quell the protests, while others are urging him to defend students’ freedom to protest against Israel.

Some Democrats are concerned that the ongoing college protests may jeopardize President Joe Biden’s chances of winning a second term. And there is an ongoing division within the Democratic Party over how to handle these demonstrations.

Some want President Biden to take a harder line to quell the protests and combat anti-Semitism on college campuses, fearing that failure to do so could bolster former President Donald Trump’s electoral standing. Some progressives, on the other hand, are urging the president to defend students’ freedom to protest against Israel and demand a cease-fire. Some have even expressed concerns that the turmoil of the Vietnam War era may flare up again.

And then there is the communist/Marxixt Bernie Sanders. Whatever he says, do the opposite. He warned that President Biden’s support for Israel could sink his presidency, much like how the Vietnam War brought down Lyndon Johnson’s presidency.

Sanders is Jewish. His father's family was wiped out in the Holocaust and he does bot support Israel? To Bernie, it's all about politics--Democrats winning.
