'The president – once again – used anti-Semitic stereotypes to characterize Jews as driven by money and insufficiently loyal to Israel,' said the executive director of the Jewish Democratic Council of America.
William CummingsCritics accused President Donald Trump of playing to anti-Semitic tropes during a speech Saturday in Florida at a conference sponsored by the Israeli-American Council, where he said many Jewish Americans do not"love Israel enough."
In his address, Trump said the"Jewish State has never had a better friend in the White House" than himself, and he listed his acts since taking office, which he thought demonstrated that friendship.Donald Trump proves he's the 'King of Israel' Later in the speech, Trump discussed his decision to move the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem and claimed he used his real estate acumen to save the taxpayers money on the location.
The Israeli-American Council is nominally nonpolitical, but prominent Trump supporter and casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, along with his wife, Miriam, pledged $76 million to the council this year. At several points in Trump's speech, the crowd chanted,"Four more years" – and at one point chanted,"12 more years," at the president's urging.
Soifer took particular issue with Trump's"audacity to suggest that Jews 'have no choice' but to support him." About two-thirds of Jewish Americans are Democrats or lean Democratic, according to Gallup, which found Trump's approval rating among Jews to be around 30% during the first three years of his administration.
