Former President Donald Trump on Monday highlighted that donors to President Joe Biden are fueling the anti-Israel protests at a host of American colleges.
Authorities have arrested more than 2,100 individuals during the growing protests across the nation.
“It just came out that Columbia just canceled their commencement [ceremony],” Trump told reporters before entering a Manhattan courthouse. “That shouldn’t happen.”
“And it also came out that the protesters, many of the protests, are backed by Biden’s donors, okay. Are you listening, Israel?” Trump questioned. “I hope you’re getting smart.”
“They’re backed by donors. That’s where the money’s coming from,” Trump said. “And I’m not surprised at all.”
