Trump Traffics in Same Jewish Stereotypes

“President Trump demanded on Tuesday that a freshman lawmaker from Minnesota resign after she posted tweets deemed anti-Semitic even by fellow Democrats, but those tweets echoed some of the same insinuations about Jews and money that he has trafficked in for years, as a candidate and president,” the New York Times reports.

“Mr. Trump was the latest in a parade of Republicans and Democrats to condemn Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN). But the president himself has perpetuated stereotypes of Jews using money to buy political influence or of acting as ‘globalists,’ pulling the levers of power for their own enrichment.”
