US Presidential Election: The campaign for the US presidential election is in full swing. Meanwhile, former US President Donald Trump has made a big claim to American Jews. According to Reuters, Trump said that if Kamala Harris wins the election and reaches the White House, Israel will cease to exist. Trump said these things while addressing a gathering of Jews in Las Vegas on Thursday. Trump said, ‘I will stay with you and ensure that Israel stays with us for thousands of years, if she (Kamala Harris) becomes president, you will no longer have Israel.’
In fact, Donald Trump has been trying to woo Jewish voters for a long time. Referring to his Democratic rivals at the Jewish conference, Trump said, “One thing I don’t understand is how do you support them? I have always said that if you are a Jew and support them, you should get your brain checked, they are very bad with you.” Referring to the Republican Party getting less Jewish votes, he said, “I can honestly say that we got only 25 percent Jewish votes. 26 percent votes in four years, whereas I have done the most work for Israel.” Trump expressed hope from the Jews that this time he will get at least 50 percent votes.
Anti-Semitic incidents increased during the Trump era
In the month of June itself, a survey was conducted on the vote percentage of American Jews, in this survey 24 percent of the Jews supported Trump. Trump said, ‘The period you have just passed through has been quite terrible. During this time thousands of people are dying, destruction and ruin are taking place, a civilization is getting ruined. If they (Democrats) come to the White House, you will never be able to survive and our country America will also not be able to survive.’
Kamala Harris hit back
At the conference, Trump claimed that Jews felt safe in public when he was in power. However, anti-Semitic incidents increased in America during Trump’s tenure. Trump claimed that if Kamala Harris wins the election, terrorist forces will wage a war to drive Jews out of Israel. On the other hand, Kamala Harris’s election campaign has retaliated to this statement of Trump. Election campaign spokesperson Morgan Finkelstein accused Donald Trump of openly insulting Jewish Americans. He said that ‘Trump proudly dines with Nazis and says about Adolf Hitler that he had done some good work.’
