“And I think any Jewish people that vote for a Democrat, I think it shows either a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty.”
That statement came when Trump was speaking to reporters at the Oval Office about his ongoing battle with Muslim Congresswomen Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, who Trump says “hate” the Jewish people and Israel.
Trump also said that Omar “is a disaster for Jewish people” and laid into Democrats for their support of the congresswomen. The president said, “Where has the Democratic Party gone? Where have they gone – where they are defending these two people over the state of Israel?” (FOX News)
Hot Takes:
- Trump is trying to vilify Omar and Tlaib to fire up his base.
- Last I checked, neither Omar nor Tlaib are running for president.
- Trump just wants to make Israel great again.
