7:20Now PlayingThe Trump campaign is facing allegations that they knowingly sent an anti-semitic tweet against Hillary Clinton. The campaign responded by saying that no offense was meant, and refuse to issue an apology. Cenk Uygur, host of The Young Turks, breaks it down. Tell us what you think in the comment section below.
“Donald Trump’s campaign has released a second statement trying to explain how an image of Hillary Clinton and a graphic resembling the Star of David atop a pile of cash ended up on his Twitter feed.
“The social media graphic used this weekend was not created by the campaign nor was it sourced from an anti-Semitic site. It was lifted from an anti-Hillary Twitter user where countless images appear,” Trump social media director Dan Scavino wrote in a statement released Monday evening and obtained by CBS.
Trump’s initial tweet, sent Saturday, was widely interpreted as anti-Semitic given that it was previously posted on a white supremacist web forum. The Clinton campaign called the image “blatantly anti-Semitic” and "disturbing."
Scavino said he deleted the tweet soon after it went up because he “would never offend anyone.” The user who posted it, @FishBoneHead1, has taken his account offline but previously shared other anti-Semitic posts about Clinton.”
