Donald Trump had such a bad day in court on Tuesday that he ended the day claiming campus protesters were Biden plants and calling for their arrest.

“Biden supporters appear to be funding the current situation for the Palestinians,” Trump said.
They may not be Palestinians, they are demagogues, and they are very bad demagogues. I think our government should find out who they are and where they come from and treat them like J6 hostages. You have to treat them the same way. These are blenders. They are really hurting our country. This is happening across the country and in cities.

According to Trump, supporters of President Biden are paying people to go to college campuses to criticize President Biden. How does this help Biden? But in fact, it’s not. Trump’s claims don’t make sense either, but now that he’s been humiliated by Stormy Daniels in court, Trump has to say something that will make him feel strong, so he’s calling for the arrest of the vast majority of peaceful protesters because That’s what the former president did.
1/6 attackers killed and injured police officers while trying to overthrow the government and keep Trump in power. Student protesters want the war to end and the people of Gaza to be helped. They did not kill any police officers and did not try to overthrow the government.
Stormy Daniels’ testimony was so bad that Trump reverted to his usual tactics of trying to create distractions to change the subject. This ploy hasn’t worked for years, and it’s unlikely to save Donald Trump now.
