Halie Soifer, the Jewish Democratic Council of America’s executive director, called the remarks “yet another example of Donald Trump continuing to weaponize and politicize anti-Semitism.”

“If this is about Israel, then Trump is repeating a dual loyalty claim, which is a form of anti-Semitism,” Soifer said in a statement. “If this is about Jews being ‘loyal’ to him, then Trump needs a reality check.”
