Donald Trump wonders how ‘anybody who’s Jewish’ could vote for Dems

Former President Donald Trump openly pondered Monday how Jewish Americans could back Democrats during a New Hampshire screed against President Biden’s foreign policy following this past weekend’s deadly terrorist attack against Israel.

“I can’t imagine how anybody who’s Jewish or anybody who loves Israel — and frankly, the evangelicals just love Israel — I can’t imagine anybody voting Democrat, let alone for this man,” Trump said during remarks in Wolfeboro.

During his speech, the 77-year-old claimed Biden, 80, had “betrayed Israel,” citing the rampage by the Palestinian terror group Hamas that has killed at least 900 people in the Jewish state, including 11 Americans.

“Less than four years ago, we had peace in the Middle East with the historic Abraham Accords. Today we have all-out war in Israel, and it’s going to spread very quickly,” Trump predicted. “What a difference a president makes.”

The 45th president and 2024 Republican frontrunner vowed that he would “once again stand strongly” with Israel should he be elected to a second non-consecutive term.

Trump has previously criticized Jews who support Democratic candidates, sending a message to that effect just last month on Rosh Hashanah.

“Just a quick reminder for liberal Jews who voted to destroy America & Israel because you believed in false narratives!” he wrote on Truth Social.

“Let’s hope you learned from your mistake & make better choices moving forward!”

In October of last year, the former president again asked Jewish Americans to vote for him.

“No President has done more for Israel than I have. Somewhat surprisingly, however, our wonderful Evangelicals are far more appreciative of this than the people of the Jewish faith, especially those living in the U.S.,” he wrote again on Truth Social.

“U.S. Jews have to get their act together and appreciate what they have in Israel – Before it is too late!” he added ominously.

Trump has frequently crowed about his Middle East policies, including moving the US embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem and the Abraham Accords that saw Israel normalize relations with the Bahrain, Morocco, Sudan and the United Arab Emirates.

He also pursued a maximum pressure campaign against Israel’s archenemy, Iran.

Still, the former president has also raged over the perceived lack of gratitude he’s received in response.

“F— him,” Trump told Axios reporter Barak Ravid in 2021 about Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who was quick to recognize Biden’s 2020 election victory.

“People in this country that are Jewish no longer love Israel. I’ll tell you, the evangelical Christians love Israel more than the Jews in this country. It used to be that Israel had absolute power over Congress. And today I think it’s the exact opposite,” Trump also told Ravid.

In the 2020 presidential vote, Jewish Americans broke for Biden over Trump by more than two to one.

Should he return to the White House, Trump pledged to “cut off the money to Palestinian terrorists on Day One” and turn up the heat on Iran.

Israel has begun striking back at Hamas outposts in the Gaza Strip after the terrorist group fired off thousands of rockets and mounted a ground offensive into the country’s territory.

At least 900 Israelis are believed to have died in the violence with an estimated 2,600 wounded, according to Israel’s Army Radio.

Moreover, Hamas has claimed to have kidnapped more than 150 hostages and threatened to execute them one by one live on social media in response to Israeli’s retaliation.
