Agreed. The vote was so close in many states that a 1-2% change could flip the results. In Michigan it was a difference of 1.4%. While their Palestinian population was relatively small, notice that the anti-Israel/pro-Hamas protests were mostly Euro-Americans.
IMO, those protests, along with TikTok vidoes, had a negative effect upon the Harris campaign and a positive effect upon the Trump campaign.
