"Trump's Antisemitic Comments Spark Outrage Among Jewish Lawmakers and Young Republicans"

Former President Donald Trump has drawn criticism for suggesting that Jewish people who vote for Democrats "hate Israel." Trump's comments were made on a radio show and are seen as an attempt to use the Israel-Hamas conflict to attack President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party. The remarks have sparked outrage from Democrats and Jewish leaders, with some accusing Trump of spreading dangerous stereotypes and embracing antisemitism. Trump's spokesperson doubled down on the narrative, claiming that the Democratic Party has become anti-Israel and anti-Semitic. However, data from the Pew Research Center shows that the majority of American Jews continue to identify with or lean towards the Democratic Party.
