Trump: If Jews Vote Democrat, They Are Being ‘Disloyal’ To Israel

President Donald Trump made it explicit.

Doubling down on his earlier Oval Office comments, Trump asserted on Wednesday that American Jews who vote for Democrats are “being very disloyal to Jewish people” and “to Israel.”

Some Jewish groups are actually defending this statement… do we take that they believe that being Jewish means loyalty to Israel over all things?

This is historically aberrant behavior
And you can take out “historically” as well.

What’s next my Jews are better then your Jews?
My Jews can beat up your Jews?

Leaving aside the crass racism and antisemitism, the utter corruption of notions of patriotism and politics and citizenship, the idea that Donald J. Trump would ever presume to lecture someone else on their loyalty or lack thereof is surreal.

He might as well stand at the finish line of an ultramarathon and berate the runners for being lazy quitters.

So, they aren’t just being disloyal to themselves as the Republican Jewish Coalition tried to spin it for him?

Since we want to ensure the loyalty of the American Jewish population to Israel, perhaps we should remove the option of dual citizenship and force them to choose one or the other.

If by “Chosen One” It means “Der Fuhrer,” I can accept that.

“Only weak people would say anything other than that,” he told reporters as he was leaving the White House. (Oval Office Occupant)

Keep it up. Also, why are you so weak, OOO? I mean, projection and all that.

Well, I guess this Jew is going to up his campaign contributions to the Squad. You know, to demonstrate my disloyalty to Orange Foolius.

He’s being fed these lines. But you can tell by the body-language and inflections that the motherfucker is really, really scared.

So far, have only heard of one (1) organization supporting this propaganda.

That does it! Trump’s (as always) sophisticated and nuanced argument has convinced me.

I can’t support the same blood-sucking cabal that welcomes anti-Semites like Shumate, Schiff, Levin, Sanders, Nadler, Cardin, Cicilone, Yarmuth, Bennet, Schatz, Raskin and Slotkin with open arms.

I’m switching to the party that lays blame for the Holocaust where it squarely belongs — at George Soros’ feet. I’m switching to the party of Steve King and Sebastian Gorka because those kinds of people have always been friends of the Jews. I’m voting for the party that’s stopped all those namby-pampy hate crime prosecutions: Everybody knows that liberal Democrats (who are the devil’s spawn) are the only ones left who are filled with hate!

There may be very fine people marching with the Nazis. But there are NO fine people in the Democrat Party. You can’t argue with that logic.

I have never seen a public figure so good at eliminating all who would call themselves “fence sitters”.

  • The GOPPERs and the Indie-GOPPERS will wring every effort to re-elect Trump

  • The GOP/Trump will cheat

  • They now have additional propaganda muscle

Then there is us. Hopefully with any and all fence-sitters (leaning our way) on board. There are more of us, and Trump’s crew knows this.

Doesn’t matter, the point is to shift blame to where it belongs: at the feet of “some Jewish groups.”
