Trump and the far right don’t fight antisemitism. They exploit it
Sacramento Bee ^ | May 24, 2025 | By Elaine Maimon

Antisemitism is increasing on university campuses — and throughout the world. But let’s be clear: Donald Trump and the right wing are not fighting antisemitism. They are exploiting it. And they are deliberately doing so, using Jewish people as pawns in a broader war on education.

What a lunatic. I wish these loons would make up their Sybil like minds ... These days remind me of reading what swept across Europe in the late 1800’s... and settled in the land of the Czars... Some are seriously agitating for a big blood letting...

There you go! (and it is an excellent bit of spin) It is "anti-Semitic" to point out Democrat anti-Semitism for purposes of political advantage. Indeed, what a craven thing to do! /s

Earth to Democrats: Stop giving us material.

“As a former university president and a Jew, I have long been committed to the principles of academic freedom. Recently I joined more than 100 former college and university leaders in signing “A Pledge to Our Democracy,” a call to action authored by the Champions of Higher Education, a PEN America initiative. The pledge unites us in defending the autonomy of educational institutions against rising authoritarian threats and underscores our collective responsibility to take action. Please don’t be deluded by Trumpian false claims of protecting Jews on campus. The real bull’s-eye is on education and on democracy itself. Autocracies prefer an uneducated populace. The Jewish community, in contrast, has always been the People of the Book, committed to repairing the world. To make the world and our democracy better rather than worse, we must unite to protect education and free speech, promoting human connection and understanding.”

A loon and a patsy. She would have be first in line to denounce the Maccabees to King Antiochus.

Biden did NOTHING to call attention to or try to halt the antisemitism on college campuses. Trump tries to halt antisemitism on campuses and it is exploitation? We are safe from her procreating because she probably can’t figure out which hole to use, it is just so confusing.

You mean as in never let a crisis go to waste? I smell projection here.

Moreover, Trump, like most business people, is a multitasker. He can be fighting anti-semitism and simultaneously exposing the educational establishment as a nudist colony, with both being equally important.

A greater case for exploiting antisemitism can be made against the democrats and the left as a whole with their championing of the Palestinian terrorists.

“What hideous monstrosities the leftists have become.”

I know right?
They’re twisted around their own sick lust for power. Trump is exploiting the jew hating lefties to expose them. And they are upset about it. Nobody wants to be exposed to the sunshine of plain spoken reality after having lived so long in the caves of DEI and wokespeak. They’re melting down and trying to retreat to the left. That’s why they’re looking at people like AOC, Hog, and Sanders to lead their party. We will know that they’ve learned their lesson when we see them looking at Harold Ford or John Fetterman.

At the same time, we should not discount the leftist wing of the democrats. They are the ones that successfully installed bronco bomma and big mike in 2008. And they engineered the installation of Xiden in 2020. They know how to perpetuate a lie and the bigger the lie the harder it is to expose it. If they could bumrush from the left for AOC in 2028 if trump turns to the defensive. Let’s hope that Susie Wiles can keep this train rolling.

Journalism is for those who failed their studies classes.
The article serves as proof for the above sentence.
