Trump has gone way beyond weird. Apparently, Doug Emhoff is a horrible Jew because he votes for a Democrat. So how many voters has he insulted now?

| This does not seem to be a good strategy for winning votes |
At the rate he is going, it will only be *some* MAGAs that he doesn't offend. |
| Wow. |
| He agreed with a host saying it. As a Jew, I agree |
Especially since "seven-in-ten Jewish adults identify with or lean toward the Democratic Party, and half describe their political views as liberal." https://www.pewresearch.org/religion/2021/05/11/u-s-jews-political-views/ |
| He can’t be as bad as “Jews won’t replace us” supporting Kushner |
You're a Jew and you agree that Emhoff is a "horrible Jew" because he votes for Democrats? Please explain. |
| Trump always does that: you suck if you don't like him, you're great if you do. I doubt it's going to change many votes, if any. |
PP must believe that the majority of US Jews are bad Jews... |

The Orthodox/conservative Jews I know and follow on social media are leaning in really hard right now on the “how can you call yourself a good Jew if you vote for Democrats” messaging. It’s everywhere, especially with younger Orthodox & conservative Jews who have way less filter than their older peers. This is Trump signaling to the Russian Orthodox and hard right Israelis in Florida, Deal NJ, Monsey, Brooklyn, etc. They love him for saying this because they actually think the reform Jews of the U.S. who have been here for 2-3 generations are weak and not “real Jews” |
| I have learned to not wade into inter-Jewish debates. This is clear mind your own business territory. |
I disagree. Accusing any American Jew of being "a bad Jew" or "not really Jewish" because of their enthusiasm (or lack thereof) for the Government of Israel's actions is itself antisemitic. It plays into old stereotypes of Jews as having dual loyalties. Since we are supposed to call out antisemitism when we see it, it's good to look at this square in the face and say "That's antisemitic and wrong." |
so Black people who vote for Trump are horrible Blacks; Whites who vote for Harris are horrible Whites...? |
