One-time pro-Trump "preacher" dumps on the Jews...

Another kook is turning on Trump.
Blames "da Joos…"

Rick Wiles Blames the Jews for Trump Administration Push to Decriminalize Homosexuality
By Kyle Mantyla | February 20, 2019 10:55 am

End Times broadcaster Rick Wiles reacted angrily on his “TruNews” program last night to the news that the Trump administration is “launching a global campaign to end the criminalization of homosexuality in dozens of nations where it’s still illegal to be gay,” by calling out the evangelical advisers who surround the president for refusing to speak out against this plan. Ultimately, he blamed the entire thing on the Jews.

(snip)

Wiles went on to declare that “the Jews” are ultimately behind this push and the Trump administration is simply doing what it is told because the Jews “control Washington” and have “control of the Trump administration.”

“Donald Trump is owned by the Jews,” he said. “That’s the truth.”

It could be the only decent thing he's done and I only wonder how the evangelical imbeciles that are the base of his support feel about it.

Iran hanged a gay man recently, just for being gay.

Notice Trump has zero to say about the Saudis, Russia and Chechnya?

Every time I bring up how Hamas and Palestinians jail and lynch gays and lesbians, it gets ignored.

OK, not really.

I wonder if this article is really about anti-Semitism?

Jews are an easy group to target because many people do it, more overlook it, and a few blame the Jews for the blame.
