They got what they wanted. Kamala Harris lost the election, and Trump is president. So, what do these protesters want

that those protesters are not motivated by peace in Gaza, which they couldn't even have found on a map five years ago. I see very few protesters in front of the Saudi embassy protesting what the Saudis are doing to Yemen with US weapons.

Probably most of those protesters in the universities last fall did not know that they were being led by leaders heavily compromised. They should know now.

Oh, and remember to wish Putin a happy birthday. On his birthday, which is October 7th.

Why don't they do this for Trump and other MAGAs who can actually do something about the situation? Not that they won't do a damn thing except have the protesters arrested, maybe that's why they don't do it.

is part of it.

It's about pushing certain false narratives.

If it wasn't Gaza they would easily have something else. They have no real concern for what they claim they are protesting for.

It certainly is not Kamala Harris’ fault.
