I do not think this will fly
withstanding a court challenge as Trump wants to stop universities from
allowing on their campuses boycott, divestment and sanction protests
against Israel. He cannot limit political protests on universities it is
a first amendment right and will only serve to ratchet up anti Israeli
protests on universities and elsewhere. If one is Russian can the state stop anti Russia sentiment on colleges, universities and elsewhere?
It is
particularly egregious and the height of hypocrisy as Trump just gave a
speech loaded with antisemitic sentiments. It was awful calling Jews
real estate Jews who are horrible people but must vote for Trump as they
have no choice. He is devoid of thoughtful analysis, does not read, and is ignorant. He probably will
do this to recapture the Jewish vote he alienated during his speech also
saying some Jews do not support Israel strongly enough. Who the hell is
he to tell anyone who to support or how strongly to support it?
There still is the freedom to advocate or not for political sentiment
and policy in this country at least for the moment.
