Donald Trump Under Fire For Anti-Semitic Remarks, Says American Jews Must 'Get Their Act Together'

Former President Donald Trump is facing backlash over comments he made disparaging American Jews, while also flaunting his popularity in Israel.

On Sunday, Trump posted to his Truth Social platform, taking aim at American Jews.

"No President has done more for Israel than I have," Trump wrote. "...U.S. Jews have to get their act together and appreciate what they have in Israel - Before it's too late!"

These seemingly unprovoked comments are not unusual for Trump, as he has long promoted the anti-Semitic trope that alludes to American Jews having a stronger, secret, loyalty to Israel.

This was also not the first time Trump has touted his record on Israel, believing that American Jews should support him based on his policies.

"I think any Jewish people who would vote for a Democrat, I think it shows either a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty," Trump said during an Oval Office meeting with President Klaus Iohannis of Romania in 2019.

Trump also claimed in the post that he "could easily be" the prime minister of Israel, based on his professed elevated approval ratings.

Trump's comments come as some prominent conservatives continue supporting rapper Kanye West, who faces his own anti-Semitic scandal over recent comments.

Jonathan Greenblatt, the CEO and national director of the Anti-Defamation League, released a statement in response to Trump's social media post.

"We don't need the former president, who curries favor with extremists and antisemites, to lecture us about the U.S.-Israel relationship," wrote Greenblatt.
