Adam Schiff on Trump claim of Dems' anti-Semitism: Only GOP 'believes there are good people on both sides of a Nazi rally'
A senior House Democrat responded Sunday to President Donald Trump's recent allegation that the ranks of the Democratic Party had become tainted by anti-Semitism by pointing to the president's previous, highly criticized remarks.
Appearing on CNN's State of the Union Sunday, Rep. Adam Schiff, Chair of the House Intelligence Committee, fired back at Trump, using the president's own words against him. "I think there is blame on both sides," Trump said in the aftermath of the event, which included throngs of white nationalists changting things like"Jews will not replace us."
"If there's anything that is likely to cement the relationship between the Democratic Party and the Jewish community it's the presidency of Donald Trump," said the congressman.
Omar is also one of the few members of Congress who supports the Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions Movement, which aims to"end international support for Israel's oppression of Palestinians and pressure Israel to comply with international law.
