As Jews all over the world this weekend celebrated Rosh Hashanah – the start of the new year and one of the holiest days on the Jewish calendar – former President Donald Trump accused those who did not support him in 2020 of voting “to destroy America and Israel" in a post on his social media platform.

The attack drew condemnation as antisemitic by Jewish leaders and politicians.

• In a social media post on Sunday, former President Donald Trump accused those who did not support him in 2020 of voting “to destroy America and Israel”
• The post, which came on the final day of Rosh Hashanah, drew condemnation as antisemitic by Jewish leaders and politicians
• Jonathan Greenblatt, the Anti-Defamation League’s CEO, said in a statement the post was “dangerous and wrong” and that “even as an organization that supported many of these policy decisions, ADL doesn’t believe that our community needs to be lectured about how to vote”
• For years, Trump has aired his frustrations that American Jews are not sufficiently supportive for his liking, often citing his administration pro-Israel policies
• Seven-in-ten American Jews identify or lean towards the Democratic Party, according to the Pew Research Center; polls taken immediately after the 2020 presidential election show Jewish support for Joe Biden ranged from 60 to 77%

=================================================
Trump's racist & anti-semitic rhetoric will hopefully cost him the coming election.

A scant 3 months later, trump takes the opportunity in his Truth Social Christmas screed to equate Israel with Iran.

Appeals to antisemitism, at least in trump's lizard brain, might be "winners" in securing votes....

Jews tend to be liberals, which Trump hates.

In November, Trump dined with rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, and white supremacist Nick Fuentes, both of whom have praised Adolf Hitler and denied the Holocaust. Last month, Trump’s campaign compared his federal prosecution connected to his effort to overturn the 2020 election results to Nazi Germany, a statement the ADL denounced as “completely inappropriate and flat out offensive.”

When white supremacists chanted “Jews will not replace us” as they marched in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017 and a neo-Nazi murdered a counterprotester, Trump said there “were very fine people, on both sides,” a remark he defended for years after.

Trump has also blamed one of his prosecutions — the case in New York regarding alleged hush money payments made to two women who claim they had affairs with him — on billionaire Democratic donor George Soros, a Holocaust survivor and frequent right-wing bogeyman.

For years, Trump has aired his frustrations that American Jews are not sufficiently supportive for his liking, often citing his administration pro-Israel policies like the move of the U.S. Embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem or the recognition of disputed territory as wholly Israel’s.

"I think Jewish people that vote for a Democrat — I think it shows either a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty," Trump said in 2019.

"No President has done more for Israel than I have. Somewhat surprisingly, however, our wonderful Evangelicals are far more appreciative of this than the people of the Jewish faith, especially those living in the U.S.," Trump wrote in a Truth Social post last year, adding: "U.S. Jews have to get their act together and appreciate what they have in Israel – Before it is too late!"

I guess you could label Trump as anti-semitic.

Just another lame ass attempt to get Trump haters to believe the Nazi narrative. Guys, give up. Trump‘s family members are Jewish. Attack old Joe. He’s beginning to cave on Israel/Palestine to save his sorry, stinking old ass at the ballot box.

Read his quotes. Trump is an anti-semite. And Semitic also applies to his ban on Muslims coming into the U.S. Abraham must be spinning like a lathe.

 

[ElChupacabra]

He could just revert to his 2019 strategy of saying Jews have no other choice but to vote for him:

A lot of you are in the real estate business, because I know you very well. You’re brutal killers, not nice people at all. But you have to vote for me—you have no choice.

It seems to be his MO since he pitched something similar to black people:

You’re living in poverty, your schools are no good, you have no jobs, 58% of your youth is unemployed – what the hell do you have to lose?

Read his quotes. Trump is an anti-semite. And Semitic also applies to his ban on Arabs coming into the U.S. Abraham must be spinning like a lathe.

Give it up. Trump’s daughter is Jewish. Arabs? Jeez.

Wait, are you saying the ADL claiming the comments are anti-Semitic doesn't qualify them as such?

 

[ElChupacabra]

You are aware Arabs are Semites as well, yes?

Give it up. Trump’s daughter is Jewish. Arabs? Jeez.

You don't recall his Arab ban?

MUSLIM TRAVEL BAN​

2017​

The "Muslim Ban" refers to a series of the Trump administration's executive orders that prohibited travel and refugee resettlement from select predominately Muslim countries. After several legal challenges, the Supreme Court upheld most provisions of a third version of the ban.

Discussion Questions​

How has the Trump administration justified its travel bans?
On what grounds might they be viewed as discriminatory?

Summary​

On January 27, 2017, President Trump signed an executive order that banned travel to the United States for 90 days from seven predominantly Muslim countries–Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen–and suspended the resettlement of all Syrian refugees. The order sparked protests around the country at airports and immigrant rights, refugee resettlement, and civil liberties organizations undertook several legal challenges to the order on the grounds that it constituted religious discrimination. The suits against the travel bans resulted in court injunctions temporarily blocking the order and groups in opposition to the ban also blocked a second iteration of the executive order. Nevertheless, on June 26, 2018, the Supreme Court, in a 5-4 opinion, ultimately allowed a third version of the executive order to go into force, which expanded the list of barred travelers to include nationals from Venezuela (limited to government officials) and North Korea.

And the whining continues.

Jews tend to be liberals, which Trump hates.

The concept of “cultural Marxism” was literally invented by the Nazis to tie socialism to Jews since a lot of Jews in 1930s Germany leaned socialist.

The GOP has shamelessly run with this idea to this very day.

The concept of “cultural Marxism” was literally invented by the Nazis to tie socialism to Jews since a lot of Jews in 1930s Germany leaned socialist.

And since a number of Trotskyites and other Communists in the Soviet Union (the USSR was a thorn in Hitler's side) had been / were Jewish.

The GOP has shamelessly run with this idea to this very day.

Oh, yeah, has it ever.

That it's doing so today, even though its leader, trump, has shown his affinity for putin over and over, is especially galling.

"Vote for me or the other guy will destroy your country," is the message you campaign on when your only goal as president is to keep yourself out of prison.
