Say what you will about Donald Trump, but he is not an antisemite. Yet there is a malicious campaign afoot to paint him as one.
Tablet Magazine, for example, has launched a "Trump Watch" series, complete with German Gothic script that is apparently meant to remind readers of antisemitic tabloids in Nazi Germany. Its mission: to show the "daily low-lights of Donald Trump's attempt to use the dark forces of bigotry to become President."
The inaugural post cites Louis Farrakhan's praise for Trump for refusing money from Jews (as he has from virtually everyone, thus far).
The post goes further, and quotes Lloyd Grove's absurd article at the Daily Beast, in which Breitbart is accused of inciting Twitter trolls to scare Federalist writer Bethany Shondark Mandel, who has never once been attacked by this website. Breitbart News has called on the Daily Beast to retract the article. (No one from Tablet contacted Breitbart News before regurgitating the article's false innuendo, and wrongly associating Breitbart with bigotry.)
The next edition of Trump Watch links Trump with the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement -- though it admits he has nothing to do with it. Actual quote: "Factually, of course, they've little in common. But facts don't matter here because facts don't always make sense."
The following Trump Watch hits him for comments about the KKK, whom he had already disavowed. And the next takes up a letter signed by foreign policy experts opposed to Trump's candidacy, and suggests "maybe something darker is taking place ... Republicans with fundamentally authoritarian instincts are beginning to shoot glances at one another and to see their opportunity."
None of the above is convincing, or even attempts to be. It is aimed at toxifying Trump among potential supporters in the Jewish community and beyond.

It's not about toxifying Trump amongst Jews, rather about libeling him as an antisemite which toxifys him amongst many voters, though not on the far left.
I am not surprised. I see it floated here by the “ops.”
..Does everybody hate America...
Have been watching the anti Trump commercials in FL. Mostly PACS of Rubio and the Koch Brothers. Tons from their anti Trump PAC. Cruz ads seem mostly PAC anti Rubio. They all are very vicious ads.
His daughter and grandkids are Jewish. Many of his highest level employees are Jewish. Many of his partners are Jewish. Many of his friends are Jewish.
Trump is no anti-Semite. If he were, it would have come out LONG ago.
I saw an old Jew today saying Trump reminds him of Hitler and Trump is stupid if he doesn’t understand that. Trying to stop the Jew vote in Florida.
Trump has done business in New York forever. They haven’t found one bigoted thing he said.
He’s actually so objective Christie put Kushner’s dad in prison and they both support Trump.
These sleazebags need to do research before painting the swastika on Trump. He's probably the least antisemitic of all the candidates.
Mr Trump appears to have let the door open a bit by expressing one or two “neutralistic” statements about the Jewish state. Being “neutral” is generally a very good thing but not when there is such stark (Satanic) evil in the world such as the various IslamoNazi terror and murder gangs (whether one looks at Iran, ISIS, Muslim Brotherhood, Hezbellah, Hamas, PLO/PA, Al QUaida or several dozen more)
I do not believe DT is any kind of anti-Semite, nor do I believe he is against the Church just because his personal Christian faith has been challenged in the mass media. HOWEVER, he will be well advised to keep working (as he has) to clarify his support for Israel and his clear commitment to Christian faith (regardless of whether he really attends church often or not). These things are SUPER important especially now after 7 or 8 years of open anti-Christian and anti-Jewish krap coming from our Islamic Colony HQ (nee: the White House). Donald needs to show greater sensitivity and commitment to matters such as these that have so very, very many Americans out here in “nowheresville” upset (due to the enemy infiltrator in the WH).
SO there’s no criticism of Mr Trump there, just a recommendation that he counter these type of charges against him with the same Clarity and Directness that he counters other (mostly baseless I think) charges hurled at him.
Unlike Hillary or Obama, at least as pertains to Jews
I think so.
This is like watching the sea part, and someone saying “oh Pharaoh wasn’t so bad... let’s turn around...”
Never a peep about the antisemite sitting in the white house and the Hitlery running
Because he’s a little rough around the edges and not the usual milk-toast GOP candidate The Ministry of Propaganda is trying to paint him as Mussolini and Hitler.
Standing up for the citizens ability to keep their country by enforcing the laws and borders is now being demonized.
+1
He endorsed Netanyahu.
What kind of anti-semite does that?
Dick Morris has a story.
