Discussion: Trump Declares That The Democrats Are The 'Anti-Jewish Party'

You sure you want to go there? Yeah I guess you do.

Now every single anti-Semitic thing you’ve said will get dragged up.

All true, of course, and how Trump doesn’t spontaneously combust from this sort of crap is beyond me. However I think Trump’s base thought process went something like this:

  • a large proportion of my supporters are evangelicals who are super pro-Israel (he may know this from polls, or more likely he grasps it intuitively from the reactions he gets at his rallies)
  • I love me some wedge issues, and Rep. Omar’s somewhat lazily framed comment was replayed endlessly as a wedge on Fox in the last 72 hours or so.
  • This line will surely get some pantomime “boos” at my next rally

That’s about the extent of his analysis! I agree that bringing up his reaction to Charlottesville would be an awesome way to throw this back at him. Also the fact that several of the most racist Republicans abstained or voted against the “racism sucks” bill.

Heads must be exploding in Trump-world. Too many negatives in one statement! So, wait, is the enemy of my enemy my friend? “Does this mean I have to like k—-s now?”

Maybe nothing. Maybe he’s just a garden variety racist goon who indulges in deranged running commentary on everything. Because his administration is almost always indulging in some kind of perfidy, it’s facile to think that he’s purposely trying to distract from something.

“I thought that vote was a disgrace and so does everybody else if you get an honest answer. If you get an honest answer from politicians, they thought it was a disgrace."

Well, at least all of the 23 House Republicans who voted against it will tell you they thought it was a disgrace, but they are lying, as usual. (Except Steve King. He really did think it was a disgrace.)

Projecting again.

Of course, his real objection is that the resolution condemned all forms of bigotry.

Not at all. It failed to mention the protected class of INCELs. Shameful, really.

Shorter Trump: I loves me my strongman thug criminal authoritarian posse, and if someone doesn’t like Bibi then they are bad!

Trump sees his world is now crashing down on him, and his family. And he cannot do a thing to prevent it.

Well, to someone who thought Trump would make a good president, perfect sense does not enter the equation. Nor any kind of sense for that matter.

He’s thinking this will change that.

Trump added: “Republicans hate Latinos, Blacks, Asians, and gays. I like Nazis and the KKK. We are such nice people.”

Trump in photo - “I inherited a mess with North Korea”.
So which recent American president hasn’t? But I’m sure “only I, Donald Trump” can resolve it.

I wish I could wake up just one day and not have my senses assaulted by another juvenile dispatch from the WH…
