I was alarmed by the response to my tweet below. I can’t understand why any Jew would support Trump who is clearly a terrible antisemite. As usual, they don’t respond to my concern about the GOP but try to point at Democrats.
Ask @GOP if they have any comments on Trump’s antisemitism.

Trump is correct. Now comment about this group of Jew haters? Yes, I’m Jewish. I support Israel. pic.twitter.com/0AOtZO75rm

Twenty minutes into CNNs 9am hour and no mention of Donald Trump's antisemitic threats.

Today is the anniversary of the Nazi-Fascist roundup of Italian Jews from Rome's ghetto. They were deported to extermination camps. Many Italian Jews never thought Mussolini would go after them. A lesson for our times given some US Jews' faith in Trump: https://t.co/1Sz80DoygS

The abiding and even encouragement of Hitler-esque anti-Semitism by Trump and the @gop and the silence of @gop Jews in the face of that marks a frightening and rapid escalation. To treat Trump like he “said this before” or Kanye like he’s just a blowhard is profoundly dangerous.

White grievance, xenophobia, the “great replacement theory” and Confederate idolatry have taken center stage. They are the emotional levers by which Republicans incite their base and draw attention away from their rotten governance.https://t.co/sj8u7wh2PG
