Trump’s post amid the celebration of the Jewish New Year drew sharp criticism, with a leader of a prominent Jewish organization calling it “antisemitic.”
American Jews as not supporting him enough. Leaning on the antisemitic trope that U.S. Jews hold secret loyalty to Israel rather than the United States, Trump suggested that they should show more appreciation to Israel and to him, since he believed “no president” had done more for Israel than he had.
The former president has long expressed frustration that support for him among U.S. Jews hasn’t grown, particularly since as president he moved the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.The flier Trump shared on Truth Social on Sunday listed the move of the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem and the 2019 U.S. recognition of Israeli sovereignty over the disputed territory of the Golan Heights as proof that the former president is not an antisemite.
Michelle Terris, founder of JEXIT, said Trump posted the flier after having dinner with JEXIT board member Siggy Flicker, a former cast member of the “Real Housewives of New Jersey,” over the weekend. “We believe he shared it on Truth Social because he is so proud of his record of support for the Jewish community in America and for the State of Israel,” Terris said.
