Um no he flat out told the students they’re welcome to support Trump. If that’s the case why did the little Landry snowflakes lie and say he told them to go frick themselves.
He didn't just tell the students they were welcomed to support Trump.
To add more context the transcript reads:
"...The other thing I'll just tell you is, you probably hearing I'm a big lefty, okay?
I’m a big Democrat. I’ve been. I was devastated by. I couldn’t believe that **** won. And those of you who like him I don’t give a. You can. Now, you’re already getting ready to say your evaluations.
I don’t need his political commentary. No, you need my political commentary. And you, above all others, need my political. political commentary. But here's the deal. I stopped listening to you. I don't know what's going on. I know there are fires in LA, and I know Carter died.
That's about it, all right? I don't know what's going on. I don't know what Trump is doing. I don't care what he is doing. If they are going to kill me, they are going to kill me.
I'm listening to science podcast. I'm. I know every. If you have quantum mechanics questions, I your guy. Okay? I'm learning about that, but I've just tuned out the news about. It's too depressing. It's huge. And those of you who like it, you know, what's wrong with you?"
We don't know the full context of the conversation. However, IF he is suggesting those who support trump need his (the teacher's) political perspective and that there is something "wrong" with students that do support Trump, then that goes beyond a professor simply saying he doesn't like Trump. It's implying that he also doesn't like those who support Trump (including students in his class), connotating a negative bias towards those students.

I’m so lost 
So a student said that he said “frick trump”,
But the actual truth is he didn’t say that but instead he said “I don’t care if you voted for Trump” and then folllwed it up with “you will here my commentary”
I guess im asking what is wrong with that?
The transcript itself makes zero sense and it’s clear something is missing

It sounds like he was insinuating that the students needed his political commentary to pass the class.

I think that anyone teaching a class should not bring their politics to the class room. I know in a perfect would it would be like that, but there are dumbasses who can't help themselves. For whatever reason people have become too comfortable talking about their politics in public settings and there is nothing to gain by doing that. No matter what side you are on, there will always be people who will get pissed off. He pretty much said "my views are the right views. frick who the people voted for and frick you if you voted that way as well".
My parents never talked about political party. It was always "you vote for who you think will do the better job and if the other person wins you pull for him to do a good job" and IMO that should be the end of it. Once the election is over stop bitching and just go on with life. I wouldn't like to be taught by someone with this mindset because I don't know if he will teach with a bias, but is this something that someone can get fired over?
I know Trump doesn't give a frick what some law professor at LSU says about him, but Landry is a sensitive one. He is an elected official, he needs to learn to ignore shite. No matter who you are, if you are an elected official there are going to be people who don't like you. You have to take it with a grain of salt.

Listening to political commentary is in no way the same as saying “you have to think like me to pass”
It’s a douchebag thing to say, but how does saying “you need my commentary”, matter in terms of passing?

Why else would they need to hear his political commentary in a Criminal Law class?
Why else would that student specifically need to hear his political commentary?

It’s far different the saying “you must think like me”

That's exactly what he was saying. You can disagree, but there probably wouldn't be any uproar unless that was the tone of the exchange.

Which absolutely means you need to listen to my poltical opinions
That is kinda wild to twist that to “vote like me or fail”. That’s a Grand Canyon leap

Why do leftist teachers and professors have to spout their political opinions during what is supposed to be class time? He’s supposed to be teaching his students criminal law, not political ideology.
These people really believe they are right to the nth degree and everyone must know how wrong they are.

Because they yearn to be important only to be saddened when most normal people don't agree with their idiotic ideology.

He should be suspended. The classroom is not a place to spew political ideology. If I was one of his students, I would have walked to the front of the class and beat his arse into submission.
My right as a political dissident.
