Former President Donald Trump has pointed the finger at current President Joe Biden for the ongoing anti-Israel protests erupting at various US universities, including Yale, Columbia, and New York University. Trump made these remarks as he entered a Manhattan court on Tuesday, April 23, where he is facing the second week of his hush money trial.
“What’s going on at the college level … Columbia, NYU, and others is a disgrace. And it’s really on Biden,” Trump stated outside the courtroom. He went on to criticize Biden, claiming he lacks the right words, backing, and compassion, branding him as the “worst president in the history of our country.”
Trump also accused Biden of not being a friend to Israel or the Arab world, stating that Biden’s signals are detrimental. He criticized Biden for trying to take a middle ground approach that is not working in the current situation, particularly in relation to Israel.
In response to the escalating student demonstrations amid the Israel-Hamas conflict, Biden condemned the anti-Semitic protests and expressed his disapproval of those who do not understand the complexities of the Palestinian situation. Biden emphasized his commitment to addressing these issues through a dedicated program.
The White House and Biden have been actively working to address the protests and maintain a balanced approach in the midst of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.
