Donald Trump has ramped up his attacks on Jews who vote Democrat accusing them of being disloyal to Jewish people and to Israel and saying that only ‘weak people’ would disagree with him.
In fiery comments today at the White House the president denied he was being anti-Semitic and accused the Democrats of being increasingly hostile to Israel.
“In my opinion, if you vote for a Democrat you’re being very disloyal to Jewish people and you’re being very disloyal to Israel and only weak people would say anything other than that,” Mr Trump said.
His comments came after he retweeted a conservative commentator’s claim that he was the best US president in history for Israel and for the Jews.
“The Jewish people in Israel love him like he’s the King of Israel…They love him like he is the second coming of God,”’ radio host Wayne Allyn Root tweeted, to which Mr Trump tweeted ‘Wow’ and thanked Mr Root for ‘those very nice words.’
“But American Jews don’t know him or like him,” Mr Root continued “They don’t even know what they’re doing or saying anymore. It makes no sense!”
Mr Trump renewed his attacks on the four minority Democrat Congresswomen known as ‘The Squad’ accusing them of being anti-Semitic and anti-Israel and claiming that they were the face of the Democrat party.
