Former President Donald Trump made his feelings towards anti-Israel, pro-terrorist Hamas protesters known during a recent donor meeting, taking a position that the vast majority of his supporters likely back.
Trump criticized the anti-Israel protests on U.S. college campuses as a “radical revolution” and pledged to expel any foreign students involved if he were re-elected.
“One thing I do is [with] any student that protests — I throw them out of the country. You know, there are a lot of foreign students,” Trump told a group of donors during a May 14 roundtable, according to the New York Post. “As soon as they hear that, they’re going to behave,” the 45th president added.
At least one of the donors allegedly expressed concern during the discussion about the potential for one of the student protesters to become a powerful politician in the future.
However, Trump told the contributors that he would try to put an end to the “radical revolution” occurring on college campuses, saying that it “has to be stopped now,” according to the Post.
