Anti-semitism

[Stephen3141]

Harris campaign, Jewish groups fiercely criticize Trump preemptively blaming Jewish voters if he loses

"Donald Trump is resorting to the oldest antisemitic tropes," her campaign said.

I agree with the article.

This sort of rhetorical attack on Jews, is a classic example of language
used by white supremicists, against Jews.

The problem of imputing blame to Jews, is <whatever> doesn't happen, is
that it bypasses any sound logical demonstration that the Jews are responsible
for whatever they are blamed for.

Perhaps Trump will lose in November, because he is badly out of touch with reality
(he continues to embrace strange conspiracy theories), or because he has deeply
insulted so many groups of American citizens. Or, because he has treated women
with disrespect. Or, because he has engaged in flagrantly felonious behavior. Or,
because he has threatened judges and their families, with non-specific violence.
Or, because he incited a lynch mob to riot at the Capital Building, when he
lost the 2020 election.

When Trump asserts that, if he loses the 2024 election, it will be the fault of
Jews, is ridiculous. And, this language of Trump, is standard language that
has come from the worst anti-Jewish figures in human history.

Christians, should not tolerate this sort of anti-Jewish rhetoric.

I don’t trust ABC news. He has family members who are Jewish.

More propaganda to attack Trump. SMH

Being related to Jewish people doesn't prevent somebody from being anti-semitic. He's not peddling conspiracy theories against them to the best of my knowledge, that's true. But he is still doing things as treating Jews as a single mass of people with united values instead of individuals and he's equating being Jewish with political support for Israel, regardless of whether an individual has any connection to the state at all. He probably wouldn't look at it that way, but I know some Jews who consider it a rehash of the old anti-semitic trope of Jews being disloyal and having dual loyalties.

He probably wants attention as usual. You’re completely right though. My mistake and apologies.
