    Ah, I knew that lazy soundbite would come up. You get that from a script, or are you just good at parroting?

    “Mr. President, what’s your message to the protesters? Do you condemn the antisemitic protests on college campuses?” reporters asked the president after his speech Monday afternoon.

    “I condemn the antisemitic protests,” Biden replied to the reporters. “That’s why I set up a program to deal with that.”

    “I also condemn those who don’t understand what’s going on with the Palestinians.”

        Yes? That Biden is condemning, specifically, protests that are antisemitic, as that is specifically how the question is phrased, not all campus protests.
