Donald Trump has a lot of views that people are relating to Hitler... I think more than just the Jews should be afraid of him, but likewise they have a reason to be especially. The way he speaks about his beliefs and the hate he spews is unnerving and I hope America does not vote him into the white house.

“If you are a Jew, you should be very afraid of Donald Trump”

Trump has always appealed to bigots. His address to a Jewish coalition confirms that he's an anti-Semite himself
MATTHEW ROZSA, THE GOOD MEN PROJECT

"If you are a Jew, you should be very afraid of Donald Trump"
This piece originally appeared on The Good Men Project.
The Good Men Project If you are a Jew, you should be very afraid of Donald Trump.

For a while I explained this sentiment thusly: Trump may not be personally anti-Semitic, but anti-Semites sure seem to love Trump. After all, I’ve received countless emails attacking me for being Jewish when I’ve written articles criticizing the Republican frontrunner… even though none of those pieces actually identified my religion (for more on that, click here). Even though this didn’t prove that Trump was himself an anti-Semite, it certainly reflected the inherent bigotry that he stirs up in his supporters.

Then Trump decided to speak at the Republican Jewish Coalition earlier today and forced me to revise my earlier opinion. I don’t care that Trump’s daughter married a Jew and converted to his religion – the man is an anti-Semite and I’m calling him out as such.

Here are some choice quotes from his speech, courtesy of the good folks at Vox:

“Stupidly, you want to give money. …You’re not going to support me because I don’t want your money.”

“I’m a negotiator, like you folks.”

“Is there anyone in this room who doesn’t negotiate deals? Probably more than any room I’ve ever spoken.”

Trump was also booed by the audience for refusing to state that Jerusalem ought to remain the undivided capital of Israel, an offense that I don’t particularly consider to be racist. On the other hand, check out this attack on the national character of the Jewish State:

“A lot will have to do with Israel and whether or not Israel wants to make the deal — whether or not Israel’s willing to sacrifice certain things. They may not be, and I understand that, and I’m OK with that. But then you’re just not going to have a deal.”

It is at this point that I must doff my hat to Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), who had the courage to call The Donald out on the intolerance embedded in that comment:

“Some in our own party actually question Israel’s commitment to peace. Some in our own party actually call for more sacrifice from the Israeli people. They are dead wrong, and don’t understand the enduring bond between Israel and America.

“Let me be crystal clear: there is no moral equivalence between Israel and its enemies. Understanding that fundamental truth is essential to being the next Commander in Chief. This is not a real estate deal with two sides arguing over money. It’s a struggle to safeguard the future of Israel.”

Even before Trump made these reprehensible remarks, many Republican Jews had already expressed reservations about his candidacy. In an article with Mint Press News, Republican political consultant Nathan Wurtzel (who is Jewish) pointed out that “there are a lot of folks who are, to be charitable, into white identity politics, and to be uncharitable are outright racists, who are supporting Trump. It’s very off-putting and disturbing.” Former Senator Norm Coleman (R-MN), who is also Jewish, observed that “in order for us to become a party [of anyone] other than white men, we need to be reaching out. I think Trump’s language and perspective is a long-term negative in terms of building the party.”

Indeed it is, and Coleman’s remarks speak to a much deeper truth. In the ugly world of racial bigotry, there is usually very little distinction between hatred of one minority group and hatred of another. The precise stereotypes often differ, to be sure, as does the exact way in which the prejudice manifests itself. Nevertheless, individuals who are predisposed to racist worldviews are more likely to apply that mindset to a multitude of minority groups than not. Trump’s recent remarks to the Republican Jewish Coalition are just one more demonstration of this reality – and Jews throughout America should take note, and be cautious.

Donald trump is not racist, he's not sexist, and he's not anti-semitic. He's just a smart, no-nonsense businessman, who is interested in results and not political correctness, and is changing the landscape of American politics.

The Republican Party Establishment has not wanted Donald Trump from the beginning. Jeb Bush was their man, but that hasn't worked out. The Donald is unstoppable. They can't control him. He has his own money, and he has fans. Lots and lots of fans. They try to get people offended by things he says. First it was Latinos, then war veterans (with the John McCain comment), then women, now Muslims, and now they're pulling out the big guns trying to say Donald doesn't like Jews. But his polls still rise. Americans are absolutely SICK of the BS politics in the US.

It's the same guy who said he wants to shut down internet.


The ironic thing is both leading presidential candidates laugh at internet freedom and "free speech"

I dont know if allyuh realize this but this gaggle of presidential candidates is the worst collection of wannabes I have ever seen running fuh that job

there is not one reasonably sane,  intellectually decent human unit in that bunch.  NONE :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o :o

oh jesus h christ! and dem guys go have nuclear button to push :o :o :o :o :o :o

allyuh must not fuhget that we know the Donald for years and years, and that the Donald we know has been a boy in mans age and body..a truly predatory businessman of all kinds of petulant and childish behavior.  and all  of a sudden he is responsible enuff to be president ::confused:: 

I dont think so

when I look at that Donald skunt I see the same Donald I have always known, who was always under severe ridicule by the media.  he is the same Donald of old full of jackass intellectualism, stupid comments and the same ld radical capitalism that leads only to hell

Hillary Clinton should be in a mental asylum under close psychiatric care.  Dr Ben Carson too who appears more like a mental retard to me.  nothing about Ben Carson  reflects a top class medical surgeon, one of the best.  oh well!  as long as he does not have to operate on me its fine I guess.

Bernie Sanders is a fake populist, a snake Jewish devil lurking under an impression of socialist.  do not get fooled by that.  this is a Jewish election of an american president.  they own and control every candidate in the mix which is why we have such a low quality of candidates running for what was once a proud job president of the.. USA

The former Navy admiral credited with coordinating the operations that captured Saddam Hussein and killed Osama bin Laden does not like Donald Trump's proposal to ban all Muslim immigration to the United States. Appearing at the Women in the World Texas event this week, Admiral William McRaven said “We cannot restrict Muslims from coming into the United States." He suggested ISIS has won when the United States no longer acts as a free, open society.
