Trump Slammed For Insisting 'Killer' Real Estate Jews Will Back Him To Save Their Wealth

The president's comments at the Israeli American Council summit were called "vile and bigoted."

By Mary Papenfuss, HuffPost US

Jewish groups denounced President Donald Trump Sunday for anti-Semitic tropes after he referred to some Jewish voters in the real estate business as “brutal killers” who will vote for him to dodge a wealth tax.

Trump also complained that some Jews “don’t love Israel enough” in a speech Saturday at the Israeli American Council National Summit in Florida before a supportive crowd that chanted “four more years.”

Halie Soifer, the executive director of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, called Trump’s comments “vile and bigoted” in a statement. Trump’s “deeply offensive remarks ... including his unconscionable repeating of negative stereotypes that have been used historically to target Jews, only reinforce our belief ...that Donald Trump is ths biggest threat to American Jews,” Soifer added.

Author Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg tweeted: “It’s not even coded anti-semitism. It’s not a dog whistle. He’s saying this. Out loud. To a room full of Jews.”

The president also resurrected his own version of a Native American slur by again calling Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) “Pocahontas,” who he falsely claimed wants to take “100% of your wealth away.”

Trump told the crowd: “A lot of you are in the real estate business because I know you very well. You’re brutal killers. Not nice people at all.” Some in the crowd laughed. “But you have to vote for me; you have no choice. You’re not going to vote for Pocahontas, I can tell you that ... You’re not going to vote for the wealth tax.” (See the video above at 27:00.)

He added: “Even if you don’t like me; some of you don’t. Some of you I don’t like at all, actually. And you’re going to be my biggest supporters because you’ll be out of business in about 15 minutes if they [Democrats] get” the presidency.

Progressive Jewish advocacy group J Street tweeted that Trump is “incapable of addressing Jewish audiences without dipping into the deep well of anti-Semitic tropes that shape his worldview.”

Trump, speaking to the Israeli American Council: "You're not nice people at all, but you have to vote for me. You have no choice. You're not going to vote for Pocahontas, I can tell you that. You're not going to vote for the wealth tax!"

Rabbi Alissa Wise of the Jewish Voice for Peace called it “reprehensible that President Trump can’t manage to address a Jewish audience without immediately peddling in anti-Semitic tropes.”

Soifer complained that Trump “even had the audacity to suggest that Jews ‘have no choice’ but to support him.” In fact, Soifer noted, an “overwhelming majority of Jews are both pro-Israel and anti-Trump because of his incendiary rhetoric ... [and] because he’s emboldened the rise of white nationalism in America, which has directly led to increased hatred and violence targeting Jews.”

Trump’s “Pocahontas” slam against Warren has also angered Native Americans. The National Congress of American Indians issued a statement earlier this year condemning Trump’s “continued use of the name ‘Pocahontas’ as an insult for political gain. Not only does it disrespect Pocahontas’ legacy and life, it likens her name to a slur ... We call on all Americans to denounce the continued use of such terms and the sentiments they express.”

As long as anyone lines his pockets, he will pretend to like them. Of course his father hated Jews and he passed it down to his kids.

He's talking about a specific subset of the Jewish population. What he is saying isn't incorrect which is why several of the audience laughed. And for the record Trump calls himself a 'killer' too.

Sounds like you are justifying anti-semitism.
The Jews run the world, right?

Right. Anti-semitic stereotypes are bad (except when you use them).
I don't use them.
Not like you and your accusations that all Palestinians are violent so should be shot if they farm too close to the Gaza prison walls, protest near the prison walls or fish too far from the prison walls.
