.MaddowBlog: Speaking to Jewish audience, Pres. Trump uses anti-Semitic tropes (again).
Donald Trump spoke over the weekend to the Israeli American Council’s national summit, where the president did something oddly familiar: he once again used anti-Semitic tropes to a Jewish audience. From the official White House transcript:
“ ‘Yeah, let’s take 100 percent of your wealth away.’ No, no. Even if you don’t like me; some of you don’t. Some of you I don’t like at all, actually. And you’re going to be my biggest supporters because you’ll be out of business in about 15 minutes, if they get it.” More to the point, however, is Trump’s assumption that Jewish people are solely focused on acquiring and maintaining wealth, and that preoccupation will inevitably lead Jewish-American voters – who voted heavily against Trump in 2016 – to rally behind the Republican ticket in 2020.
As regular readers know, this was not an isolated incident, Several months into his presidential campaign, for example, Trump spoke to the Republican Jewish Coalition and said, “You’re not gonna support me because I don’t want your money. You want to control your politicians.” He added, “I’m a negotiator – like you folks.”
