Donald Trump tweeted a blatantly anti-Semitic image Saturday morning, causing an immediate backlash online and further confirming the Republican nominee is willing to sink to depths well beyond usual, acceptable bounds of politics.
The tweet, posted at roughly 8:30 a.m., featured a picture of Hillary Clinton pasted over a backdrop of $100 bills with a six-pointed star — the Jewish Star of David — next to her face.
“Most Corrupt Candidate Ever!” the star read.
This is not a dog whistle. It’s not subtle. It is anti-Semitic imagery aimed at a candidate who isn’t even Jewish.

.... 26 years ago she called Paul Fray, her husband’s campaign manager at the time, a “f**king Jew bastard”.

It IS a dumb mistake ... but it's also a very human mistake - doesn't require negligence ... just passive ignorance or a brain-skip at that moment ...
As someone said, if this is all they got, they're screwed. And if their lumpen electoriate buys this - then the bald face propagandized moronacy is beyond what I've estimated ... and I've estimated it pretty high.
which religion uses the circle logo? Now Trump is dog whistling against Buddhism
This is such total and unmitigated bull. Hillary is an Arab lover, not a Jew lover, unless the Jews are the self hating kind. And the Jews who push this tripe are definitely in this category. How any serious self respecting Jew could support that hag who will stick the stiletto in Israel’s back at every opportunity, is beyond my comprehension.
100 percent unadulterated HORSESHIT.
The fact is, the Jewish faith does NOT have a monopoly on the six pointed star, ok?
Did all of those sheriffs in the old West pay royalties for their badges?
Don’t think so.
Calm down people, get a grip and don’t play the libtard media’s games.
Now the symbol is round, like the earth. Trump is insulting the whole earth! /sarcasm ;-)
America has a lot of problems and sick people if they would even entertain the thought of voting for an obvious crook like Hillary.
Funny how the Left never gets upset about anti-Semitism when one of their own does it. Or any Muslim.
It wouldn’t matter.
They will come after quotation marks, if they come from TRUMP.
They are in FULL AND FINAL PANIC over there on the Left.
Hooray!
You’re right. I had one on my uniform or carried it on my person when not in uniform for 30 years with my Sheriff’s department.
These fruitcakes are a laughingstock.
Absolutely pathetic on Huffpo’s part.
Beautiful, Bratch. Great point!
It sure is...I looked and looked at the ad...I had no clue as to what they were talking about til someone mention the Star of David...
Actually, the Star of David is not solid..It is lines...
Whoever at Trump Campaign HQ screwed up approving that one. They handed ammo to the Hitlery side.
I can tell you this... The LeftoSphere of the Interwebs are going nuts with this.
They really think they have Trump now.
They’re serious. Delusional, too, but seriously saying this will ruin Trump, and proves he’s an Anti-Semite.
I think it's high time we call out Andy Griffith as a blatant anti-semite.
Absolutely ridiculous. Trump supports Israel. Hillary supports radical Islam.
Oh dear Lord...
The graphic is quite clearly a sheriff’s badge, appropriate for the topic.
How anyone sees a Star of David in there is a mystery to me. And interpreting it as anti Semitic requires projection.
