When speaking at an event centered on fighting antisemitism , Donald Trump used the opportunity to gripe about Jewish Americans who vote Democrat and blamed the lack of support on the party’s “curse on you.” “The Jewish people would have a lot to do with a loss,” Trump said at the Israeli-American Council national summit in Washington, DC. “It’s only because of the Democrat hold, or curse, on you.
” He further suggested that Jewish Americans owe him their vote, and said, “All I have done for Israel, I received only 24 percent of the Jewish vote” and complained that “I really haven’t been treated very well, but it’s the story of my life.” During the disjointed speech, Trump attempted to pin antisemitic hate crimes against Jews to his Democratic opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, and claimed that she “hates Israel” while painting himself as “the best friend Jewish Americans have ever had in the White House.” (Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff is Jewish.
) Donald Trump is now saying that the “Jewish people” will be to blame if he loses this election. This is vile and dangerous and should be condemned by all Americans. Antisemitic rhetoric like this makes Jews less safe.
