Donald Trump has accused Jewish Americans who vote for Democrats of hating Israel and 'their religion' in a radio interview with former White House staffer Sebastian Gorka.
Trump was asked by Gorka why the Democrats - specifically President Joe Biden and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer - were so hostile to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
'I actually think they hate Israel,' answered Trump, who has himself criticized Netanyahu for a lack of preparation for the October 7 Hamas terror attack.
'Any Jewish person that votes for Democrats hates their religion,' he said. 'They hate everything about Israel, and they should be ashamed of themselves because Israel will be destroyed.'
Following the remarks, the White House issued a statement condemning Donald Trump's 'vile and unhinged antisemitic rhetoric.'
White House spokesperson Andrew Bates told Mediaite: 'President Biden has put his foot down when it comes to vile and unhinged Antisemitic rhetoric.
'As Antisemitic crimes and acts of hate have increased across the world – among them the deadliest attack committed against the Jewish people since the Holocaust – leaders have an obligation to call hate what it is and bring Americans together against it.
'There is no justification for spreading toxic, false stereotypes that threaten fellow citizens. None. Like President Biden said, he was moved to run for President when he saw Neo Nazis chanting ‘the same Antisemitic bile that was heard in Germany in the 1930s’ in Charlottesville.'
A Pew Research Center study in 2021 said that seven in ten Jewish voters are Democrats.
The former president - who counted among his accomplishments during his term the moving of the American embassy in Israel to Jerusalem and the Abraham Accords normalizing trade between the Jewish state and several Gulf nations - sees these Democrats as cowering against pro-Palestinian sentiment. .

“You’ve got more questions?” Biden replied. “Well I tell you what, if you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.”
This is it. This time the press will not have distorted context...right...right?
The Jews have always been very Liberal and stiff necked on many things..
And.............
LOL...you beat me to it. That was the very first thing that popped into my mind, too.
Trump’s statement was factual and in no way anti-Semitic. He supports the right of Jews to exist and suggests they vote in their own self-interest.
Biden condescendingly treats blacks as permanent members of the Democrat plantation.
BIG DIFFERENCE!
The sensitive independent aren’t going to like this.
I wish Trump wouldn’t opine on so many things. His insights are good and he’s usually right, but we don’t need to hear from him on so many topics. I support him but its as if he craves attention and thrives on stirring up unnecessary controversy. I think he will get more votes by focusing on the big issues that voters really care about. JMO
Biden standing up against anti semitism lol that’s a laugh riot he refused to say one word when it came to all the pro Hamas protests all over the country calling for the extermination of Jews Biden said nothing since they vote democrat
The fact that Jews have been overwhelmingly voting democrat in NYC for a very long time is certainly a mystery for the ages......I’ve sure never been able to figure it out. 🤷
The corrupt:
. . . who looked the other way - REPEATEDLY - as young children were human-trafficked to sexual destruction.
Well they were equally Liberal while in Germany. Even when they were being dragged to the Cattle Cars... I have a question for God when I see him which is why did he make the Jew his chosen people?
i’m waiting for Biden’s instinct to kick in one day and for him to call some black reporter the N word or to revert back to his youth and call some black school kids little pickaninnies or something like that.
I also wouldnt be surprised if he just walked over to some broad on stage somewhere and started feeling her up.

Unfortunately the “sensitive independent” tends to be quite self-absorbed.
Jews still suffer mentally from Holocaust era. They have knee jerk reaction to prefer Democrats who pretend to be more inclusive of people. Many Republicans use litmus test to exclude people. I never hear DINO word from Democrats. On the other hand RINO is commonly used by Republicans.

Good! Maybe self-hating persons calling themselves “Jews” will pause for a moment of serious self-reflection.
My friend who was Jewish. Not practicing. Was Conservative. He was fro NY. He moved south to my company. His family were left wing self loathing Jews. He said they would vote for Hitler if they could. I don’t get it. 🤷♂️
the Orthodox Jews like myself are almost overwhelmingly staunch conservatives
Not sure they still suffer mentally, least the American Jew as they really never felt that pain, the Jews that immigrated here did for sure...God smacked the Jews around a number of times in the Bible for their behavior in the past...
