The pro Palestinian kids are not nearly the threat racist MAGA'ts have proven to be for every group not white skinned and that includes Jews. I'll get more worried if the kids get really violent and start parading with AR15's. Come November 2024, these kids won't be voting for Trump.

They wonтАЩt vote for Trump, but they just might not vote at all - just as bad.

I wish I had your confidence that they wonтАЩt vote Trump. To me, those two acts (supporting Hamas/supporting Trump) are equally horrible, and naturally adjacent.

They won't vote Trump because most of them are supporting Palestine against the 'colonial occupier'. They think they are supporting the underdog instead of a rabid dog. Come November other issues like abortion, guns, climate change, and LGBTQ issues will compete for attention. Trump does not win on any of those. They may not vote Biden, but they definitely won't vote Trump. At least not in any real numbers.

Or they sit home, which is just as bad for Biden/democracy.

You make a good case. But Trump and Hamas share a vile basic: тАЬThe cruelty is the pointтАЭ. And the kids seem on board. Time will tell.

"They think they are supporting the underdog instead of a rabid dog."

Added to my list of "metaphors to remember."
