Donald Trump Launches Blatantly Anti-Semitic Attack Against Hillary Clinton
The Huffington Post ^ | July 2, 2016 | Sam Levine and Sam Stern

Posted on 07/02/2016 4:04:14 PM PDT by Bratch

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.

THE HUFFINGTON POST

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”.

10 bucks says the text wouldn't fit well in a 5 pointed star because a 5 sided polygon is a bitch to have to fit text into efficiently ... and they couldn't make the 5 pointed star any bigger or it would dominate the graphic, so they picked a star that has a square bound in the center and didn't make the connection -> mostly because 'anti-semitism' is about 5 million miles away conceptually from a not-known-for-his-religion man whose daughter is jewish, who mistrusts a political religion that wants to kill all Jews and whose opponent is a lying atheist. ... there no 'Jewish' in the whole conceptual picture.

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.

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.

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.

BS!!! Nice try. It’s a sherrif’s badge star...

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.

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.
