[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think Trump is anti-Semitic.  I honestly don't think he has strong feelings about groups, because why would he spend any time thinking about people who are not him?

But the statements he has made about other minority groups as a result of his opportunism have lowered the bar for everybody.  If it is ok to slam Mexicans and Muslims, why wouldn't it be ok to be anti-Semitic?  He has created an environment where fear and hate of other people is ok, where making hateful statements is ok.  How do people not get this?  He is a gross and toxic person.[/quote]

While Trump, himself, may or may not be anti-Semitic, he insinuates and fuels any fears throughout the general ignorant population, whether it be against Jews, Latinos, Muslims or Asians.  He threw a gas can on top of smoldering embers of existing racism.  It doesn't matter what Trump really feels; at the end of the election, we may not be able to put the genie back in the bottle and American society may explode with race riots.

Bosnia comes to mind.  Different ethnic groups lived side by side as neighbors for centuries in peace, until one rabid asshole came to power ...
