WHILE speaking at his golf course in Doral, Florida, Former President Donald Trump, on Monday, said he would remove the Jew haters if reelected.
“I will defend our American Jewish population. I will protect your communities, your schools, your places of worship and your values.
“We will remove the jihadist sympathizers and Jew haters. We’re going to remove the Jew haters who do nothing to help our country, they only want to destroy our country,” he said during the event, commemorating the first anniversary of the October 7 Hamas attacks in Israel.
During his speech, Trump claimed “anti-Jewish hatred” was “within the ranks of the Democrat Party.”
Trump has repeatedly claimed that Jewish Democrats should “have their heads examined,” playing into an antisemitic trope that Jewish Americans have dual loyalties to Israel and the US.
The former president added by saying:
“The anti-Jewish hatred has returned even here in America, in our streets, our media and our college campuses and within the ranks of the Democrat Party, in particular, not in the Republican Party. I will tell you that it’s not in the Republican Party.”
Amid protests on college campuses across the country earlier this year, the former president repeatedly criticized the protesters and the Biden administration’s response.
In April, Trump claimed without evidence he thought a lot of them were “paid” and “professional” agitators, according to CNN report.
At the October 7 commemoration event, Trump said the bond between the United States and Israel is strong and enduring.
“If and when I’m president of the United States, it will, once again, be stronger and closer than it ever was before.
“We have to win this election. If we don’t win this election, there’s tremendous consequence for everything,” he said.
