Additionally, there are apprehensions that\u2062 the protests could benefit Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.\u200d President Biden&#8217;s silence on \u200cthe issue has\u200d raised calls for him to address the situation.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Democrats in Washington are reportedly panicking because of fears that the pro-Hamas protests raging on college campuses across the country will galvanize the American public to vote for Republicans.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">One House Democrat told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axios.com\/2024\/05\/01\/college-protests-democrats-congress\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Axios<\/a>, \u201cThe longer they continue, and the worse that they get, the worse it\u2019s going to be for the election overall,\u201d adding that the protests are \u201cBringing out [the public\u2019s] most conservative side.\u201d Prior to a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-returns-to-michigan-with-hopes-of-repeating-the-battleground-success-he-found-in-2016\/\" title=\"Trump hopes to replicate his 2016 battleground success in Michigan.\">closed-door caucus meeting<\/a> of House Democrats on Tuesday, \u201cmany people were talking about\u201d the chaos at campuses, the Democrat admitted. \u201cMany people are super frustrated and concerned.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">One unnamed Democrat expressed their concern that the protests would help Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying, \u201cWe need to remember that a vote for Trump or sitting out this election or voting third party is a vote for Netanyahu.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rep. Annie Kuster (D-NH) defended Democrats\u2019 refusal to condemn the protests, saying, \u201cIt\u2019s complicated enough for us with the range of opinions and height of emotions we have, without weighing in on what [colleges] should be doing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Meanwhile, President Biden has remained silent over the last week regarding the violence and protests plaguing college campuses. \u201cWe need the president of the United States to speak to the issue and say this is wrong,\u201d House Speaker Mike Johnson <a href=\"https:\/\/abcnews.go.com\/Politics\/speaker-johnson-house-republicans-ramp-criticism-control-college\/story?id=109786538\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a> on Tuesday. \u201cWhat\u2019s happening on college campuses right now is wrong. It is un-American. It is not who we are. The president seems unable or unwilling to do this.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">The last public comment from Biden about the situation came on April 22, when he both-sided the issue, saying, \u201cI condemn the anti-Semitic protests. I also condemn those who don\u2019t understand what\u2019s going on with the Palestinians.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Conversely, former President Donald Trump has been outspoken in his denunciation of the protests. He <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reuters.com\/world\/us\/trump-heads-wisconsin-michigan-after-being-hit-with-gag-order-fine-2024-05-01\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a> Wednesday, \u201cI say remove the encampments immediately, vanquish the radicals and take back our campuses for all of the normal students who want a safe place from which to learn.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Speaking in Wisconsin, Trump praised the NYPD for taking control at Columbia University, calling it a \u201cbeautiful thing to watch.\u201d \u201cNew York was under siege last night,\u201d he declared, calling the demonstrators at Columbia and City College of New York \u201craging lunatics and Hamas sympathizers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b><a href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" aria-describedby=\"sk-tooltip-9096\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1714673789152000&#038;usg=AOvVaw0y1UTwuifPf73KnKdAvs6N\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">Trump also lacerated the rumored proposal from the Biden administration to relocate Palestinians to the United States, saying, \u201cYour towns and villages will now be accepting people from Gaza and various other places.
