More than 44K sign open letter to Trump saying he’s not welcome in Pittsburgh
The Hill ^ | October 29, 2018

More than 44,000 people have signed an open letter from progressive Jewish leaders saying President Trump is not welcome in Pittsburgh until he denounces white nationalism.

Eleven members of the Pittsburgh affiliate of Bend the Arc: A Jewish Partnership for Justice penned a letter to Trump following Saturday's shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue that left 11 congregants dead.

"President Trump, you are not welcome in Pittsburgh until you stop targeting and endangering all minorities," the letter reads. "President Trump, you are not welcome in Pittsburgh until you cease your assault on immigrants and refugees."

“President Trump, you are not welcome in Pittsburgh until you cease your assault on immigrants and refugees.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

President Trump has not assaulted immigrants, his wife is one.

He has called out illegal aliens.
They are not immigrants.

He has said there is rampant fraud in the refugee program because there is. We do not have to take in jihadists and criminals.

Most of the conservative and orthodox Jews with a sense of their heritage have already left for Israel. Most of the liberal ones left here would supply guns to the Palestinians and vote for a political party committed to marginalize them.

He’s white...and a Nationalist/Populist They aren’t intelligently curious enough to separate the 2 words.

They are drones.

I bet they even think extreme right in the 30/40’s meant right of center and not just right of communism.

The progressive voter of today have lost their perspective. The elites have been successful in rewriting history and skimming off the taxpayers.

Did you see the information I posted on Emily Birnbaum who wrote the article for the Hill as an intern?

What Being Queer Outside Of College Is Really Like by Emily Birnbaum

Emily Birnbaum is a graduating senior at Kenyon College, majoring in Sociology. After graduation, she’ll be interning at a D.C. news publication and applying to journalism schools for fall 2018.

“”I went to Cubbyhole, one of the only queer bars in New York City that is heavier on the “lesbian” than the “gay,” with my ex-girlfriend in December 2017. All queer women reading this will likely recognize the complicated grey area that ensues when two women break up .......””

Here is a statement from President Trump re: the tragedy in Pittsburgh:

America has no room for the ‘vile, hate-filled poison of anti-Semitism’

The American flag is flying at half-mast above the White House today as our Nation grieves the 11 victims of a despicable act of mass murder Saturday at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

“Anti-Semitism and the widespread persecution of Jews represents one of the ugliest and darkest features of human history,” President Donald J. Trump said from Indiana on Saturday. “The vile, hate-filled poison of anti-Semitism must be condemned and confronted everywhere and anywhere it appears.”

What unites Americans is our common destiny, President Trump continued. “We mourn for the unthinkable loss of life that took place today, and we pledge in their name to fight for a future of justice, safety, tolerance, morality, dignity, and love. We must all rise above the hate.”

President Trump and the First Lady will visit Pittsburgh tomorrow to meet with family members of the victims and mourn with the entire Pittsburgh community. The 11 Jewish-Americans killed “represented the very best of our Nation,” Press Secretary Sarah Sanders said from the White House today. The President “adores Jewish-Americans as part of his own family,” which includes his daughter, son-in-law, and several grandchildren, she noted.

This is, as others have said, meaningless virtue signaling. Besides, not only will the president go wherever it is that he pleases to within the United States, but he very thoroughly and completely denounced what motivated this nut, which is anti-Semitism. As a Jewish American, that is more than good enough for me.

These leftist Jack holes can blow it out their ass for all I care.

Most of them are probably dead. Fake signatures abound.
