Jim Jordan Gets In On the Jerry Nadler - Tom Steyer Show
(PART 2)
Headline reads:
‘Inane and anti-Semitic’: Rep. Jerry Nadler blasts Rep. Jim Jordan for tweet using ‘$’ to spell Trump foe Tom Steyer’s name
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., on Monday blasted Republican Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio for an “inane AND anti-Semitic” tweet that spelled billionaire hedge-fund operator Tom Steyer’s last name with a ”$.”
Steyer, whose father was Jewish, has been a prominent donor to Democratic candidates as part of his goal to have President Donald Trump impeached. Last year, Steyer planned to spend $10 million to help Democrats regain control of the House, which they did in the midterm elections.
Jordan’s spokesman Ian Fury in an emailed statement to CNBC said: “Tom Steyer is a billionaire pushing Democrats like Chairmen Cummings and Nadler to impeach the President. As you may know, the $ symbol represents dollars, of which Mr. Steyer has approximately 1.6 billion and has committed eight figures to fund far left-wing causes. ”
“Congressman Jordan has always stood against hatred and bigotry. Also, according to public sources, Steyer is Episcopalian,” Fury said.
Steyer’s spokesman declined to comment, beyond noting that Steyer had responded to Jordan directly on Twitter on Sunday.
