The Guardian: Jewish groups criticize Trump for antisemitic stereotypes in speech

Halie Soifer, executive director of Jewish Democratic Council of America, said in a statement the remarks were an “unconscionable repeating of negative stereotypes that have been used historically to target Jews”.
Soifer reiterated the council’s stance that Trump is “the biggest threat to American Jews” because of his rhetoric that has “emboldened the rise of white nationalism in America, which has directly led to increased hatred and violence targeting Jews”.
