Trump Attacks Jewish Leaders After Hanging Out With Antisemites

Donald Trump went on the attack against Jewish leaders and other members of the Jewish faith, suggesting that they are somehow being "disloyal" to him because they don't like him hanging out with antisemites. The man is so clueless that it is almost painful to even hear his thoughts on the subject, and his narcissism won't even let him just apologize for what happened and move on. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Donald Trump lashed out at Jewish leaders this past weekend in a post on truth social, claiming that they're not loyal enough to him after everything that he did for the Jewish community, not just here in the United States, but around the globe. He's mad, of course, that Jewish leaders are still angry about his dinner with anti-Semites, his dinner with Kanye West and Nick Fuentez. But rather than admitting that, oops, yeah, I screwed up. I was duped. This was terrible. It'll never happen again. Trump is instead attacking the Jewish leaders that are mad at him for doing what he did. Here's what he put on true social. How quickly Jewish leaders forgot that I was the best by far President for Israel. They should be ashamed of themselves. This lack of loyalty to their greatest friends and allies is why large numbers in Congress and so many others have stopped giving support to Israel. Yeah, we, we get it. You did a lot of stuff for Israel. Israel's also doing a lot of bad things over there. But all of that aside for a moment, we're talking about Jewish people here in the United States, and I understand the connection to Israel, but they're also wondering, what have you done for us here, right? Like this is where we live and we're, we're being attacked. We're being attacked in the synagogues, we're being attacked in the media. We're being attacked by right wing freaks all over social media, and you're sitting down having dinner with them, and then you have the audacity to say, we are the ones who are not loyal.

They have a right to be off. You are sitting down with people who deny the atrocities that the Jewish people suffered during World War ii. That is what Nick Fuentez is. He is a Holocaust denier. But again, Trump could have fixed this. He could have come out and said, listen, this was a mistake, but more importantly, he could have said three words to put this to rest. I am sorry. I am sorry. That's it. That's all you had to say. You know, you don't have to say, I didn't know who this guy was. Kanye was. He duped me. He came, oh Lord, all of it was crazy. Oh, why aren't you? Why aren't you understanding that I am the victim? All you had to say was, I am sorry. And you could have elaborated, you could have said, these people are freaks. They've got serious problems. I want nothing to do with them. They're banned from the property because of their horrendous views. Any of that would've worked, but you didn't do that because your pride, your ego won't let you utter those three words in any circumstances ever. I am sorry is all it would take, but those are three words you will never hear come outta the mouth of Donald Trump.
