Oh, and D) these aren’t “anti war” protests.

The left has had an antisemitism problem for years, and now it’s a full-blown academic. This is the type of guy currently protesting at US campuses.

Better still, why is he more outraged by these students than he ever was by a president who attempted to prevent the peaceful transfer of power by assembling a mob to storm the U.S. Capitol; conspired to create false electoral slates in key states; clearly bullied officials in some states to “find” more votes for him; urged his Vice President not to certify the legitimate results of the 2020 election; called American war dead suckers and losers; and kept dozens of the nation's most sensitive military intelligence documents out in the open in an unlocked bathroom and on a ballroom stage at Mar-a-Lago?

And even still better is why does CO drag out this worn out Trump bashing instead of simply condemning the open anti-antisemitism that is erupting at major universities all across the country.

The left has had an antisemitism problem for years,
'The right' has had an antisemitism problem for just as long as 'the left'.
Defining it as a left or right issue blurs the fact that racism and bigotry crosses all races, nationalities and political systems.

Looks like that post struck a nerve. They don’t like the unmasked faces of their co-believers; for some it’s a shock to see the ugliness and for others…it’s a reflection.
The first post is nonsensical. That’s what that kid thinks…is there some kind of happy context we can put his words into? Uhhh, no.
The other post looks like a programming glitch from ChatNPC, who is trying a limo game of bbbbut Twump while posting a list of fantasies.
The mask is off the college left and everyone sees it now.

I've condemned anti-Semitism repeatedly, certainly more than Trump who described people who stood beside neo Nazi's chanting "Jews will not replace us" as "fine people" and refused to condemn David Duke, a former grand wizard of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.
And enlighten us: which items on my list are "fantasies"?
Where I come from, they're called facts.
1. Trump assembled a mob on Jan 6: “Big protest in D.C. on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!”
2. There's testimony that Trump was fully aware of the fake electors scheme, and knew that Eastman's plan for Pence to obstruct the certification of electoral votes was a violation of the Electoral Count Act.
3. Trump warned him of a “criminal offense” as he pressured Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to find him 11,780 votes in Georgia.
4. Vice president Pence confirmed that Trump pressured him not to certify the legitimate results of the 2020 election.
5. Chief of Staff Kelly confirmed that Trump called American war dead suckers and losers.
6. Trump has admitted having the intelligence documents -- and it's been clearly established they were in an unlocked bathroom and on a ballroom stage at Mar-a-Lago -- but claims they fall under the PRA.
All facts, each and every one.

These kids are your kids. They’ve been marinated in every woke policy that you people have denied being around. They’ve been told they’re the Special Ones Who Were Born For This Moment and they have the participation trophies to prove it.
And now…here they are! Happily validating everything we’ve ever said progressivism was.
Enjoy!

And now…democrat Congressmen are joining the protests!

joins the protest, calls for ceasefire
“My message to the university is clear: students and faculty are not the enemy. Students and faculty are the university.Pro tip, Congressman: they might not be the enemy…but they sure as hell are supporting the enemy.
Toodles!

Interesting.
The Right has had an antisemititism problem for as kong as the Left---- they're both the same. LOL
1.)Who runs these elite colleges where this has grown and become acceptable?
2.)Both sides (if they are guilty of this) don't agree on much but I guess they both embrace antisemitism.
They could agree on that.
Interesting.

The home of antisemitism is the left. Has been for decades.
If someone wants to dispute that, go right ahead. However, ask yourself this:
How many future leaders of which party go to places like Columbia and Yale and major in the things these kids major in?

Another fact is that there is no criticism of a liberal person or policy or policy outcome that cannot be responded to with TDS fueled diatribe.

From what I have seen of the protests on college campuses, they are in step with demonstrations all over the world profoundly objecting to the murder of women and children in Gaza. That fact that it is Israeli Zionists perpetrating that brutality is immaterial to the very human response to those barbaric actions.

Without having to google: Ford, both Bushes, both Clintons.
Googling: Taft, Truman... and too many right wing sycophants to list.
Include the other east ivies and the list includes many of Trump's sycophants.

Ah, the cluelessness is always astonishing:
Steven Mnuchin ’85
Ben Carson ’73
Wilbur Ross ’59
Alex Azar LAW ’91
Stephen Schwarzman ’69
Christopher Wray ’89 LAW ’92
John Bolton ’70 LAW ’74
More than George W. Bush, who had only two Cabinet members from Yale.
More than Obama, who had six Yalies in his Cabinet during his two terms.
And good grief, Bill Barr's BA and MA are from Columbia.
Trump's own sister got her MA from Columbia.
You guys are hilarious.

This is what’s known as the irrelevant fact: a fact put forth as some kind of argument…but isn’t really relevant.
How many pictures of Ben Carson in keffiyehs are there? And is neurosurgeon a major we usually see whacko Hamas supporters in?
The answers are 0 and not very many.

NOSTALGIA BUFFS.
The sympathizers are nostalgia buffs.
That was then, this is now.
Is a vast majority of ivy league students and faculty MAGA or Liberal?
If you tell the truth and say Liberal, great.
IF you feel MAGA-ites are intellectuals - then, uh, ok I can go with that too.
Yep, I continue to embrace the progressive side on this issue.
Even after University Presidents are fired because The Cabal took money away ---it will only harden hearts of tomorrow's Ruling Class.
Please, let's rock and roll.

Well, that softball of yours got knocked outta the park in a hurry.
