Trump - bankers = Shylocks

Why isn't the ADL or Bibi speaking of about this?

I fact checked this and this is what he said:

On July 3, 2025, President Donald Trump used the term "Shylocks" to refer to some bankers during a speech at the Iowa State Fairgrounds, while discussing his "One Big Beautiful Bill Act." He said, "No death tax, no estate tax, no going to the banks and borrowing from, in some cases, a fine banker and in some cases, Shylocks and bad people. They destroyed a lot of families, but we did the opposite."

Trump later claimed he was unaware of the term’s antisemitic connotations, stating, "I’ve never heard it that way. To me, a Shylock is somebody that’s a money lender at high rates

People are going to rationalize a Nazi salute, so they’re going to rationalize this. SMDH.

Good. Still waiting on other prominent Jewish groups and individuals who are pro-Trump because of his support of Israel--to the exclusion of everything else he says or does.
