JTA - Donald Trump’s campaign for the presidency rolled out its Israel Advisory Committee last week -- no one noticed.
Blame the unrelenting news cycle, if you will: July 14 was the day of the hideous mass killing in Nice, France.
But also, his Israel Advisory Committee consists of exactly three Jews, including two who work for him.
Not much news here, move along.
Trump’s unusual campaign extends to its Jewish outreach, or rather his lack of Jewish outreach resembling anything that has come under that rubric in other campaigns.
Campaigns routinely distribute talking points to Jewish supporters and cultivate them as “validators,” folks who will appear on their behalf in the community and Jewish media making their case. But insiders say that Republican Jews who want to support Trump within their community have heard … crickets.
No talking points. No invitations to speak on his behalf to their communities. Calls by potential supporters and donors on behalf of daughters and nephews who want to volunteer go unreturned. (Like JTA's request to the Trump campaign for comment on this story.)
Tevi Troy, a deputy secretary of health under President George W. Bush and a formidable Jewish community validator for past Republican candidates, said no one has been in touch this year, but that may be because he’s not on any of the relevant lists. Troy had opposed Trump during the primaries, but once it became clear in May that Trump would be the nominee, he said he was open to persuasion.
“I don’t think they’re targeting messages specifically to the Jewish community,” he said.

He has Jewish Grandchildren. How ignorant this is.
Jews can expect the same support from Hills as the received from the Obama/Hillary years.
Liberal first, Jewish second
The most outspokenly pro-Jewish candidate in history (referring to Trump’s record in Florida) vs. someone for whom “F***ing Jew Bastards” rolled right off the tongue. I really hope Trump uses that quote, knowing no “legitimate” Republican ever would.
Typical of Democrat Jews. They should ask Israel who they support. It wasn’t the Nazi’s that put the Jewish in the ovens it was their fellow Jews.
And that, of course, includes Israel. With Hitlery, there will be war there.
He needs White goys. Jews are a hopeless task. Wait about 15-20 years when Orthodox have more kids. For now, liberal atheist JINOs dominate the vote, and send about 80% of it the Dems’ way.
What, you mean Trump is treating Jews as Americans, instead of some foreign minority to whom he must pander?
If I were Jewish, I think I’d find this article to be condescending.
the media and the GOPe has stigmatized supporting Trump among Jews.
He also had a rabbi give the opening prayer. But don’t expect this ignorant writer to know that.
That is pure BS. All the Jews I know support Trump including all the Jewish Freepers I know! As I just said more BS.
IMO, any Jew that supports the anti-semitic Hitlery is a CAPO!!
Enough said.
Donald Trump is the first person I will be voting FOR since Ronald Reagan.
Last night THE Mayor summarized my feelings, "I am telling you this because I am sick and tired of the defamation of Donald Trump by the media, by the Clinton campaign. I am sick and tired of it. This is a good man, and America should be sick and tired of their vicious, nasty campaign."

You are discounting the importance of cultural delusions. By culture, I mean the majority American Jewish culture.
WHAT THE ####!!! it’s bad enough we only get 30 percent to begin with!!!
Now it’s gonna be less!!!
I wouldn’t care if it wasn’t for Florida.
I worked with a Jewish guy, great guy, he taught me graphics from SCRATCH, when he could have gotten 40 accomplished people instead.
But he said he was an avowed communist. He made 100k at the time!! in the 90s, his kids went to private catholic schools and he lived in a great (not black at all) neighborhod.
Is it anger at Christians? We apologize!!! Is it the feeling of brothership with those who are oppressed? You’re NOT IN THE SAME CATEGORY as blacks.
Is it some kind of guilt?!?! LET IT GO!!
Muslims aren’t gonna care of you’re a liberal, conservative, orthodox, “cultural” or any other kind of Jew.
That one word is good enough for them!!!!
geez!!
Which tends to be lightly religious, if religious at all.
This kind of problem is nothing new and is a biblically classic problem.
You'd be surprised. I belong to a Conservadox congregation. Every week I hear people at Kiddish (Lunch following Saturday morning service) surprise me as I never would have guessed they were on our side. I think many people are afraid to say how they feel because they think everyone else is on the other side and they don't want to be ostracized.

Eight years ago, Obama said time and time again he was against Israel and Jews. The Jewish community couldn’t vote for him enough.
Four years later, Obama had proved how much he hated Israel. The Jewish community, again, couldn’t vote for him enough.
Same as the miners, some can’t seem to learn a lesson no matter how many times they get slapped with it.
