Whether he feels it himself or just knows it’s convenient, he won’t utter a syllable in criticism of anti-Semitism. He didn’t mention the word “Jew” on Holocaust Remembrance Day. When asked about anti-Semitism by an Israeli reporter in the joint appearance with Netanyahu he talked about his electoral victory and his daughter (“some of my best friends are ...”). And today, when a reporter wouldn’t let him duck the question but followed up, he came up with the worst lie yet, that anti-Semitic attacks are false flag operations by his “opponents” to hurt him.
There can be no doubt Trump won’t do anything that might offend his White Supremacist base. Instead, he foments their hatred.
This is how pogroms start.
This is terrifying.
