I don't know how to convey that the president of the United States is not going to formally endorse the right to break the law in the name of a good cause & *you do not want a president who endorses lawbreaking*

There is in fact a candidate running in part on “breaking the law in the name of a cause I support is good”, which may factor into some of the tacit support he’s getting here

You *absolutely* want one that endorses proportionality though. And one that treats bloodshed—foreign and domestic—with appropriate gravity... How’s he doing on those?

as with the broader Gaza issue, while we’d like him to be on the right side, the actual standard we’re holding him to is that he not go out of his way to support and enable the wrong side, and he hasn’t met it

The president is currently breaking the law but you don't care about that. You just want to attack the left because you are upset that they have convictions.

would add that the protests on college campuses are not the main event, which you would not know from looking at either the times’ or the post’s homepages today. the war is not being conducted for the purpose of protests.

I certainly wasn't asking him to endorse "lawbreaking." I was asking him to protect the right of the people to peaceably assemble: a right flagrantly and illegally violated by police gangs.

All he has to do is say "everybody settle down and cut the malarkey" and college administrators would get the message to de-escalate. Instead they get the opposite message.
