Or what? Why can't he even acknowledge the existence of anti-Semitic threats and vandalism? He freaked out and rudely slapped down the reporter from a Jewish publication who asked the question in a very polite, non-treatening way. I guess he doesn't want to offend his supporters over at Stormfront.

is a diaper-load of hot rightwing mess.

Sorry but republican fuckfaces do not have an inherent
right to express their hate and narrow-mindedness
without being called out on it.

oh well, like most things that come out of his mouth, it's probably best to bypass any search for meaning and go straight to the "what does it tell us about their plans" stage
this tells me the FBI will be called off such cases, since they're insignificant and threats go "both ways" or some other such fanciful bullshit
expect little or no enforcement of anti-terror or hate-crimes laws against white supremacists from this administration
imho they're counting on those folks to be loyal, armed and active when Trump calls for citizen militias to purge immigrant communities

Are Jewish people desecrating cemeteries here or calling in bomb threats on Muslim community centers? I haven't heard of any such thing, so what's Herr Drumpf talking about?

For example, after the Sandyhook school shootings, Alex Jones declared that there had been no shootings, but that it was a staged event by the government to serve as a catalyst for stricter gun control. So these would be false attacks and threats that are done to make anti- Semites "look bad". It's a common accusation among that crowd, and obviously they have Trump's ear.

Both, most likely.

Trump is claiming that either Jewish people are making the threats themselves or it is Democrats/Liberals doing it just to make Trump/Bannon/Republican supporters look bad.

That's exactly what he is saying.

The man is despicable.
