Why protest a US president?

Irish protests against US presidents have a long history, often linked to foreign policy or historical grievances. This demonstration against Joe Biden highlights ongoing concerns about the Gaza conflict, echoing past protests over issues like the Iraq War. Trinity College, a prominent institution, often serves as a focal point for such public expressions.
