WASHINGTON, May 18 (Reuters) - Several top White House aides say they are confident protests across U.S. college campuses against Israel’s offensive in Gaza will not translate into significantly fewer votes for Joe Biden in November’s election, despite polls showing many Democrats are deeply unhappy about the president’s policy on the war.

The White House optimism on the issue, which is shared by many in the Biden campaign, runs contrary to dire warnings from some Democratic strategists and youth organizers who warn misjudging the situation could cost Biden votes in a tight race with Republican rival Donald Trump.

    I’d hope that most Muslims are intelligent enough to put their emotions aside & vote for the candidate that hasn’t committed to stripping birthright citizenship & mass exile of Muslims post-election.

    But you never know…

      I would phrase it another way, people that don’t vote against Trump simply don’t care as much about their fellow Muslim-, Mexican-, and gay-American citizens (and noncitizens, etc.) compared to other issues

      I said it in 2016 and it’s still true today. It’s the US though; that’s literally always been true. It’s honestly time the rest of us realized it and accepted reality
