Donald Trump, speaking to the Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC), repeatedly said that Jews won't vote for him because, since he isn't accepting donations, they will not be able to control him with their money.
“You are not going to support me even though you know I am the best thing that could happen for Israel. I know why you are not going to support me. You’re not going to support me because I don’t want your money,” Trump told a full auditorium of Jewish donors and Republican Jewish supporters. “You want to control your own politicians.”
This plays into anti-Semitic claims that Jews control the country with their money. Has he said this to any other group? Has he told evangelicals that they won't vote for him because they can't control him with their donations? No. Only the Jews.
It is totally bizarre that he would say something so offensive to Jewish voters. Furthermore, why would he ever tell any group of voters that they are not going to vote for him? If that's true, why did he even speak to them? It's a defeatist attitude.
I don't believe, on the basis of this alone, that Donald Trump is an anti-Semite, but these statements put his judgement into question.
Furthermore, he displayed stunning ignorance of what is going on in Israel. He said that once he is president, he is optimistic that with his deal-making skills he can bring peace between the Israelis and Palestinians in six months, or perhaps less, if both are "committted" to peace.

Most moslem-American citizens want hitlery because they believe that she will be better for moslems in America than trump. They are probably right.
I don’t really know which candidate most moslems in the rest of the world prefer. It is my view that they want bad things for us, whoever is elected. I’m not altogether sure that the average moslem in Egypt, Pakistan, or Afghanistan has heard of both hitlery and trump.
But, my own view is that trump would be worse for America, because his hidden liberal agenda would face little opposition of his decieved formerly conservative idolizing acolytes. hitlery would be bad, but trump would be worse. With trump, we risk seeing a fundamental change in the Republican Party permanently for the worse. Pro-life, small government, constitutional conservatism would be buried for possibly a generation.
As well, vis-a-vis the islamic world, I believe hitlery would be diastrous, but trump would be worse.
And ultimately, a trump presidency would more quickly help bring about the goals of Islamic world domination. Which is the goal of most moslems generally, other than moslems who are American citizens.
So, a vote for trump is a vote for Islamic world domination. So, I am voting against the interesets of most moslems. You are voting for them. But, as you appear somewhat ignorant, I will not group you with the moslems. As that is not your intent (I think), I would be lying to do so.
Since you injected religion into the thread, do you profess to be some type of baptist born again Christian ?
So far, it is only sitetest coming unhinged and avowing that Trump would be worse for America as President than Hillary. I have not speculated as to the motive. I confess I was tempted to ping the site owner but resisted.
There are probably 30 people right now on the forum destroying support for Cruz with these types of actions and statements.
I agree with you.
You prove that I was right to think you ignorant rather than intentionally evil.
Or, perhaps you are evil. You seem to hold some animus toward moslem-Americans, that they would vote for a candidate that would treat their community better than trump would. Being a Catholic, I can appreciate voting for a candidate who is not in favor of treating my community poorly.
In terms of trump being bad for world islam, I should have clarified, worse from the American perspective. In other words, I believe he would so foul relations with every moslem regime that they all would throw us out and explicitly repudiate their relationships with us. Many would then choose to ally with Russia. Not good for us.
So my opposition to trump is rooted in what’s good, or at least, less bad for America. As well, what is more likely to bring about the long term destruction of islam, or at least for the next 4 or 8 years, do my best to prevent the worst possible result vis-vis the Islamic world.
I disagree with the owner of this site on more than one issue, but I agree on more issues. And where I disagree, I say what I think a limited number of times, and then usually fall silent unless someone posts to me about what I’ve posted.
As to being popular around here, sorry, but I’m actually a conservative; I’m used to being unpopular. Hey, it came to me at an early age. When I was in school, I wasn’t an athlete, I didn’t do drugs, I went to Mass regularly, and not just on days of obligation, I considered cheating an anathema, and, yes, I was a conservative. So, I object to your inaccurate lumping me in with the moslems, but I’m quite used to being calumnied by the ignorant or morally blind.
Oh the irony; you have already written that you prefer Hillary to Trump, even as you compare her to Hitler. Moslem Americans prefer Hillary to Trump, like you and you imagine them to be victims of my animus and me to be ignorant and evil in your eyes. How do you spell Baalam/Balaam ?

You have made it perfectly clear that you prefer Hillary Clinton to Donald Trump. Do you also prefer Barack Hussein Obama to Donald Trump ?

I hope you enjoy the Mass for tonight's/tomorrow's holy day of obligation. I love how the Catholics have allowed credit for a holy day to include the evening, as do also the Jews.
Ya think? LOL
I agree.
