Trump demands colleges ‘vanquish the radicals’ and says it was ‘beautiful’ to watch the NYPD raid anti-Israel Columbia University camp at wild Wisconsin rally
Former President Donald Trump was back on the campaign trail where he slammed the pro-Palestine protesters and called on colleges to ‘vanquish the radicals’ at first rally since his hush money trial began more than two weeks ago.
‘You saw it last night. That’s one good thing that really happened,’ Trumps said after New York City police cracked down on protesters who had occupied Hamilton Hall at Columbia University.
Speaking at a rally in Waukesha, WI on Wednesday afternoon, the ex-president said ‘New York was under siege last night.’
The New York Police Department confirmed that 119 people were arrested at Columbia after cops moved in to clear protestors from the occupied building and a nearby encampment.
