WASHINGTON, Oct 17 (Reuters) – Donald Trump’s recent comments that American Jews have offered insufficient praise of his policies toward Israel were “insulting” and “anti-Semitic”, White House spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre said on Monday.
“Donald Trump’s comments were anti-Semitic, as you all know, and insulting both to Jews and our Israeli allies,” Jean-Pierre told reporters.
A Trump spokesperson did not immediately respond to request for comment.
Trump on Sunday warned that American Jews need to “get their act together” before “it is too late!”
The suggestion of disloyalty, made on Trump’s social media platform Truth Social, plays into the antisemitic trope that U.S. Jews have dual loyalties to the U.S. and to Israel, and it drew immediate condemnation.
“No President has done more for Israel than I have,” Trump wrote before adding that it was somewhat surprising that “our wonderful Evangelicals are far more appreciative of this than the people of the Jewish faith, especially those living in the U.S.”

Any mention of this glorious race that does not heap adulation on their backs is anti-Semitic, in their eyes. Any discussion of anything any person of this race has done wrong is anti-Semitic. I guess I’m just going to have to wear the badge of an anti-Semitic. I’ll wear it proudly.
