As former President Donald Trump tries to win over Jewish voters in the 2024 election, he’s made a point of attacking Jewish Democrats — targeting the faith of three of the most prominent Jewish Americans in politics and criticizing any Jew who backs Democrats as “an absolute fool” who needs “their head examined.”
Those attacks have increasingly colored the background of a pivotal fight for potential swing voters: Jewish Americans in critical battleground states, a group that has consistently supported Democrats in past elections and, this year, is increasingly concerned about issues including rising antisemitism at home, U.S. support for Israel in its war in Gaza, and the hostages held by Hamas — six of whom, including one American, were recently killed in Hamas captivity.
A number of Jewish advocates, quick to note Jewish voters are voting on an array of issues beyond Israel, say Trump’s attacks are blatantly antisemitic and lean on age-old tropes suggesting “dual loyalty” for American Jews between the U.S. and the Jewish state. Even some of Trump’s allies on the right view the comments as increasingly unhelpful in the broader effort to win over a small but meaningful number of Jewish voters in a close election.
“It’s deeply dangerous, deeply disturbing, and it’s part of this broader normalization of antisemitism,” Amy Spitalnick, CEO of the nonpartisan Jewish Council for Public Affairs, told NBC News. “Trump believes that he’s entitled to the Jewish vote, entitled to support from Jews, and when they don’t give it to him, he immediately defaults to this idea of the disloyal or bad Jew.”
Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League, said that "playing this dual loyalty trope" is "classic antisemitism."
"I just think that's wrong," he said. "It's not the first time it's happened with President Trump. I mean, we saw this when he was in office."
Following Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro’s speech at the Democratic National Convention, Trump took to his Truth Social platform to call Shapiro a “highly overrated Jewish Governor” who “for strictly political reasons, refused to acknowledge that I am the best friend that Israel, and the Jewish people, ever had,” adding Shapiro “has done nothing for Israel, and never will.”

I lived in California for 4 years and I heard Russian language radio stations while driving around in my car and nobody did a fucking thing about them. They played music and one station was basically Russian 'talk radio' - will those be shut down? They've been around for decades and yet…

John just commented to Bret that it's INTERESTING that Merrick Garland never mentioned any consequences for IRAN after that press conference…no punishment for Iran.
