USA Today: Donald Trump predicts Jewish voters will switch to GOP in ‘Jexodus.’ Democrats call that a fantasy

March 18, 2019

“‘Jexodus’ is a Republican fantasy that will fail,” said Halie Soifer, executive director of the Jewish Democratic Council of America. Soifer was among many who said they were offended by Trump’s term.

Soifer, the executive director of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, cited the drop-off of Jewish support for Republicans in the 2018 midterm elections to say that Trump and the GOP are losing traction with these voters.

Many voters know that Trump has appeared to welcome support from white supremacists who have also engaged in anti-Semitism, she said: “There is what he tweets and then there is reality.”
