(Jewish Group) Trump doubles down on 'disloyalty' comments

(THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! RESPECT!!)

President Donald Trump clarified who voters — Jewish or otherwise — are being disloyal to when they vote for Democrats.

“If you vote for a Democrat, you’re being disloyal to Jewish people, and you’re being very disloyal to Israel,” Trump said Wednesday as he left the White House for Louisville, Kentucky.

---snip---

Critics had debated whom Jews were being accused of being disloyal to in the comment.

Jewish leaders expressed concern that Trump was leveling a charge against American Jews of “dual loyalty” to the United States and Israel, a classic anti-Semitic stereotype.

Centrist and left-wing Jewish groups in statements said Trump’s remarks were “dangerous,” “divisive” and displayed “textbook anti-Semitism.”

Of course, what Schumer said is not good enough for some. No. The sitting president has attacked Jews, and STILL people rip and rank on Jews...Democratic Jews, to boot...for this and that. Had he said nothing...BAD. He says something...not good enough!

I am pissed at this situation and frankly, I am pissed at some of the goddamned reactions to this anti-Semitism (whataboutism, strawmen, what is this or that Jew saying, this of that Jew isn't saying/doing the right thing).

Will you be surprised when more Jews end up dead? I won't.

The President of the United States is setting up more targets and pointing to them so that the followers in his cult can be triggered and take action.

That sounds like a line in some work of fiction. Hmmm.

Now, the White House is being seriously degraded by its current resident. That is something to take issue with, for sure. This type of behavior is not befitting the office and an insult to the people. Nobody should be able to sully and degrade that position so willy nilly and as if beyond reproach. That, in itself, certifies them as unfit for office.
