When he wasn’t busy struggling to answer whether a man could become a woman or claiming that protecting unborn babies when they have a heartbeat was a “terrible thing,” Donald Trump shared a message for the Jewish New Year: Liberal Jews “voted to destroy America” by not supporting him.
Trump has on a number of occasions attacked Jewish Americans who did not vote for him as ungrateful for not appreciating his pro-Israel record.
Defenders of Trump will no doubt try to argue that he wasn’t addressing all Jews but just “liberal” ones and also that he was merely posting a flyer that bore the name of “Jexit” — a name adopted by a group of pro-Trump Jews. But the flyer in question had “Trump2020” hashtag — which suggests that it was an old flyer that Trump felt the need to share on Rosh Hashanah, one of the holiest days of the year for Jews. Color me skeptical that Trump’s defenders would be so understanding if Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer were to post a Merry Christmas message from a Left-wing evangelical group blaming Christian conservatives for destroying America because they didn’t vote for Democrats.
It may not be considered news given that Trump has pushed this message before and will no doubt do so again. But it’s still disgusting.
