American Jewish leaders took out a full-page advertisement in the New York Times on Thursday to thank President Donald Trump for his efforts to combat anti-Semitism across the globe and criticize Democrats for their open embrace of causes advocating the destruction of Israel.
The advertisement, signed by more than 50 leading American Jewish voices, comes on the heels of Trump appointing Elan Carr as the new State Department Special Envoy to Combat Anti-Semitism, a post that has become increasingly important in recent years as anti-Semitism and violence against Jews flourishes across the globe, particularly in Europe.
"Thank you, President Donald Trump and Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, for the appointment of Mr. Elan Carr as Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism," states the ad, which was purchased by the Republican Jewish Coalition.
"Anti-Semitism must be confronted and defeated," the advertisement declares. It also contains a direct quote from Trump in which he declares, "The scourge of anti-Semitism cannot be ignored, cannot be tolerated, and it cannot be allowed to continue."

Are Jewish eyes opening finally? Conservative Christians have always been the most supportive of Israel
Lovely.
Ir is time and past time that Jews abandoned the democratic party.
Oh, and gut shabbos to my fellow Jewish freepers.
“purchased by the Republican Jewish Coalition.” -— I thought this was odd. Most American Jews probably hate Trump.
..................
This is great. There needs to be more full page ads by other groups.
I never could get my mind around that.... Why would the Jewish people vote for the democrats.??
I can't see where they would have anything in common with the reds... Baffling...
That’s nice but most Jews still vote for Dems.
They will still vote 70-80% democrat.
Yea, well, the Jews in my town hate Trump, hate GOP, vote 95% Demorat and fund raise non stop for them. Screw American Reform Jews. I’m sick of them. Except Orthodox and only because they stay out of the way. Not because they actually are MAGA Trumpists.
I recall reading another Freeper’s comment on another thread of the same sort of theme and that Freeper remarked that too many of them have had parents or even grandparents voting Dem because of JFK or even FDR, so they must as well.
You’re right, but the Republican Jewish Coalition is sort of an interesting group. There are more Republican Jews, in straight numerical terms, than the percentages make it seem. But they tend to be in hiding within their own communities, so the RJC is kind of an encouragement to let their GOP flag fly, and it’s been somewhat effective.
Maybe the Democrats got their attention when they started talking about 70 to 90 percent tax rates.
AWESOME!!!
Let’s hope and pray now that other Jews will wake up and smell the coffee.
Great ad, and in the NYT no less. The Jews got themselves in this mess by voting for democrats
American Jew : “Thanks Trump for the kind words ... we’re still voting Dem though ...”
