Trump Supporters Reject SCOTUS Nominee Merrick Garland Because He’s a Jew

In the words of Donald Trump supporter David Duke, the same guy who said comparing Trump to Hitler could only serve to rehabilitate the reputation of Hitler, the nomination of Merrick Garland “Basically gives Jews total veto over The Supreme Court.” Who knew that Garland represented all Jews, and apparently, only Jews?

According to Trump’s very vocal antisemitic supporters, those self-proclaimed champions of those poor victimized “white European Americans,” Garland is “a Jewish supremacist.” Isn’t it funny how being Jewish makes you a “supremacist” when being a Christian does not? After all, according to this logic, isn’t Trump then a Christian supremacist? And how is that a good thing?...

Funny how the United States Constitution does not stipulate that the Supreme Court be a demographic representation of the country’s ethnic or religious composition. Funny how, with so many African-Americans, we can’t have a black president. What’s really amazing, however, is that now, after years of being told Obama is anti-Jewish, being told that he’s actually under the control of some nefarious Jewish cabal....

It is true that Donald Trump does not select his supporters. But he has the opportunity to reject their rhetoric, something he has declined to do, even going so far as to credential a white supremacist journalist at one of his rallies. The simple fact is that by not rejecting this rhetoric, Trump is giving it his tacit approval. Anyone who is not one of Fox News’ “white Christian Republicans” should be very afraid of Donald Trump and what he represents.

Is it 1932 yet?
