Trump Promises to DEPORT Anti-Israel Demonstrators

Former President Donald Trump told a room of high-level donors that he will work feverishly to deport many of the anti-Israel demonstrators who took over college campuses in recent weeks, according to the Washington Post.

During a roundtable in New York, the former president promised to “expel” students from the U.S. where possible, a shocking strategy that he said would rid the country of foreign students he claims are only arriving with mindsets harmful to America.

“One thing I do is, any student that protests, I throw them out of the country. You know, there are a lot of foreign students. As soon as they hear that, they’re going to behave,” Trump said on May 14, according to donors at the event.

When one attendee at the event – which Trump joked contained “98% of my Jewish friends” — said he feared that some of the protestors today could hold prominent positions of power tomorrow, President Trump replied that the far-left activists’ goal is a “radical revolution” of U.S. policy toward Israel. “[I]t has to be stopped now,” he added. “Well, if you get me elected, and you should really be doing this, if you get me reelected, we’re going to set that movement back 25 or 30 years.”

Trump, no fan of international war, hasn’t firmly embedded himself with war hawks or America First nationalists, previously telling Israel “get it over with … get back to peace and stop killing people.” The Post adds that major Republican donors have recently lobbied Trump to take a stronger position in support of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s campaign to eradicate Hamas. Privately, Trump continues to revile Netanyahu for acknowledging President Joe Biden’s victory in 2020 and hasn’t spoken to him in years, the outlet added.

Asked about his comments on deporting foreign-born student agitators, Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt doubled down on her boss’s plans to bring back world peace. “When President Trump is back in the Oval Office, Israel will once again be protected, Iran will go back to being broke, terrorists will be hunted down, and the bloodshed will end,” Leavitt wrote in an email.

Since the October 7th, 2023 attack on Israel by Hamas, President Trump has largely stayed above the fray on regular developments, sticking to comments about how the act of terrorism would never have happened if he were president. In a March interview with an Israeli news outlet, Trump blessed Netanyahu’s campaign, saying “You have to finish up your war. To finish it up. You gotta get it done.” At the same time, he has told domestic conservative outlets that the Jewish nation is “absolutely losing the PR war.”

“But I’m one of the only people that says that now. And a lot of people don’t even know what October 7th is,” Trump told attendees, according to a source who spoke with the Post. He added that U.S. rallies in support of Israel are garnering fewer attendees than those for his campaign.

“Israel is losing its power,” he added. “It’s incredible.”
