WASHINGTON—President Trump on Tuesday questioned how Jewish Americans could vote for Democratic candidates, as he stepped up criticism of a pair of Democratic congresswomen who have been critical of Israel.
“I think any Jewish people that vote for a Democrat, I think it shows either a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty,” the president said in the Oval Office during a stream of comments about Reps. Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar , the first two Muslim women members of Congress who were last week...
About time to raise the question. Why not? What have these socialist democrats done for Israel?
My Jewish family and I were just discussing how what Trump said is what we’ve been saying about the lefty Jews for years.
realDonaldTrump is questioning the loyalty of Jews toward Israel if they vote for Dems who have become very anti-Israel. How is that even controversial?
Nope. His family are Jewish. He lives Israel.
70% of American Jews need Re-education, and that too before 2020.
You mean to you!
It's a natural question. Why are they backing the people and a party that has made it very clear how they feel about you? White Democrats should ask themselves the same question.
What Trump said is not the antisemitic slur that Jews are disloyal to the USA. His point was that Jews were being disloyal to the State of Israel. And as a Jew, I agree with his message.
But Rep. Omar making a legitimate criticism about Israeli domestic policy was 'anti-semitic'.
Agree!
This President is a butt-head that plays gender, race identity politics cards. It's not about the different parties that are involved. It's about vision. What can/is being done. A choice that comes from the people not from a group. ♀️
It is hard to break old habits,
Don’t be fooled by Jewish voters,, they more organized and guided by World Zionism Organization,,in a matter of less than an hour they can be mobilized and told to whom they should vote for or attack,,their Murdoch & friends media mafia backs them too,,they elect POTUS from R&Ds
Haters of Jews laughing away
President Trump is right again. The new Democratic Party is not like the old party. Wake Up!
Trump must feel really desperate this week: renewed attacks on Powell (to distract from his own ineptitude); statement nixing consideration of gun laws (after talking with Wayne LaPierre); and now an (insulting) attempt to manipulate Jewish voters. He's no leader - just a boor.
Even after this Cowardly Republicans remain silent and complicit. The GOP is the Party of self-interest over Country. The Party of false patriotism and fair weather friends to American Jews.
One has to wonder...
Great question!
the truth is of the matter is IlhanMN speak against Jews truth/false
Listening live to hughhewitt Show discussing this very issue. P.S., I'm Jewish, left the DemocraticParty to Vote 4 Ronald Reagan (re-elected) Never looked back. Also, immediate Family also left the DemocraticParty
Not a dual-loyalty trope, like guardiannews would have you believe. Trump thinks all Jews (all nationalities) must respect the state of Israel, because to him Israel == home of all Jews. The logical next step is that Jews are fundamentally un-American. That's called racism.
Jews should at least question their choices
Trump really eager to get those votes
AaronFr88 He should. Clearly, Dem Crows don't have their interests at heart. DefeatDemCrow
When the dems used to mean somethin?
It isn't smart
Those two support BDS which is anti Semitic. You can not like Trump but you have to admit what they are.
Loyalty to the Democrats not the country is what he was saying. He NEVER called them disloyal to the USA
I wonder. Like a baby, Trump says whatever is on his mind without filter of any kind. Today while in the Oval he stated to once he had seen the travel itineraries of RepRashida and IlhanMN he was so disgusted that he called IsraeliPM . Why was realDonaldTrump studying the
Because 'deplorables, white nationalists, traitors and smelling them at Walmart' has already been so over used.. at least since 2015. Unprofessional, insulting'titling' of any voter should probably be addressed
And once again, he's right.
You can’t be Jewish and Democrat....it’s incomparable. Truly voting against your own people. Democrat Jews are no better than those who gave up other Jews to Nazis in WWII
Cannot imagine the attraction of Jewish people to the Democratic party With the support the dems give to the enemies of Israel, Jews should reconsider their choice of political parties
be is a racist and an anti semite
Opposition to Trump or his stooge Netanyahu is not opposition to Israel. Stop confusing the elected leader with the country. One is eternal, the other has an expiration date.
The Republican Party has morphed into the party of white Christian Nationalists, just like Nazi Germany did.
I hope Jewish people are at least a little bit concerned about the rising anti-semitism of the left.
The Squad is a terrorist group. Ban them before they kill you.
Unless the Dem Leadership becomes proactive in denouncing members who make ethnic, religious, and racial slurs, I would have a hard time supporting Democrats.
I thought republicans stated dual loyalty was a question of antisemitism? Oh that’s right nothing is negative when it comes from daddy Trump.
I would not even be surprised, if Trump claimed that he saved the Jews from Hitler...
American Jews are ferocious communists. He said nothing controversial if facts is what we’re after.
Disgraceful Headline.
Questioning their loyalty to the Jewish cause?
realDonaldTrump gop senatemajldr the world 🌎 question his sanity everyday
This antisemitic trope has been used since antiquity.
A ploy straight from The Fascist Dictator's Playbook
