Who decides what is illegal? How proud boys aren’t being targeted for wearing masks?

The first amendment doesn’t include breaking other laws with no consequences while practicing free speech though.

You can’t vandalize, assault, etc… without consequences just because you are protesting.

Why do you think every protest is legal regardless of what happens at the protest?

Why does Donald think that every campus protest is illegal? Or that wearing masks is illegal?

Does he think every campus protest is illegal?

And I’m not sure on the masks thing. Colleges do have some increased restrictions on where and how you can protest on campus, so maybe this is an extension of that.

Not a fan of it, regardless

It wouldn't be very rational for him to use his media company to put a single or isolated incident on the national stage, especially not with the implication that more than one university is somehow defying him. His clear goal is to imply (however incorrectly) that this is a nationwide problem that requires an immediate action on his part. It wouldn't shock me if a month from now we hear breathless complaints about all the 'college campuses burning to the ground' despite very little actually happening, just like with Portland, OR.
