Karl Rove, a former adviser to George W. Bush, said Wednesday on Fox News Channel’s “America Report” that anti-Israel protests are likely at the Democratic Party’s Chicago convention this summer.
Speaking about President Joe Biden, Rove said: “On the one hand, he opposed the protests and attacks on Israel and Jewish students, and on the other he recognized the plight of the Palestinian people.” The president himself set the tone by answering the question.”
He added, “Look, unless these universities step in and make sure that students are allowed to go to class and their campuses are not taken over by student protesters, the situation is going to get even worse by the end of the school year.” ” he continued.
He added: “If you imagine the Democratic Party meeting in Chicago in August and a large number of protesters gathering in Grant Park during the Democratic National Convention and what that will look like, this will be an ugly sight. Probably,” he added. It will not be a pretty sight and will be reminiscent of the famous Democratic National Convention in 1968, which was disrupted by protests against the Vietnam War. ”
