The Guardian: How Trump’s presidency has divided Jewish America
November 16, 2018
Though Jews have traditionally voted Democrat, Trump’s antisemitic support cuts like a rip-tide beneath those figures now. In the magazine Jewish Exponent, Ron Klein, chairman of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, and Daniel Berger, wrote:
“Amazingly, today in 2018, Nazis, neo-Nazis, Holocaust deniers, white supremacists and those who align with them are running for Congress – all under the Republican banner … Trump’s refusal to condemn those who espouse hatred and march under the Republican banner is itself encouragement and abetting of such behavior. Sadly, Trump’s followers in the Republican Party are not doing much better.”
