Trump Warns Jewish Voters, Faces Backlash

Former President Donald Trump, during an Israeli-American Council event in Washington, D.C., suggested that Jewish voters would bear significant responsibility if he loses the 2024 election, stating that Israel's existence could be at risk under a Democratic administration. Trump expressed his frustration over the Jewish vote, citing his pro-Israel policies and family connections to Judaism, but lamented only modest support from Jewish Americans. His comments, which many have condemned as antisemitic, come amid controversies involving Trump-endorsed candidates like Mark Robinson, who has made offensive remarks likening himself to a 'Black Nazi.' Jewish organizations, including the Anti-Defamation League, have criticized Trump's rhetoric, highlighting the potential dangers of such divisive language in an already tense climate.
