Trump Says Jews Have 'No Choice' But to Vote for Him

"President Trump told a conference of American Jews Saturday night that he did not have to worry about getting their votes, because they would cast ballots with business interests in mind,” the Times of Israel reports.

“The comments, made during a speech to the Israeli American council, were quickly derided as anti-Semitic.”

Said Trump: “You have to vote for me, you have no choice. You’re not going to vote for Pocahontas, I can tell you that.”

He added: “You’re not going to vote for the wealth tax. Let’s take 100 percent of your wealth away. No, no. Even if you don’t like me — and 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.”

Claim it isn't "really" anti-Semitism. They already have the format for that play.
