Former Executive Committee member of Brooklyn's Democratic Party. Youngest person ever elected to that position. Progress, not perfection.

Donald Trump’s obsession with lecturing Jews on how we should vote is disgusting and dangerous. American Jews aren’t your props, Mr. President. This is his first time doing it since the explosion of far-right antisemitism, so his audacity must be called out. I'm not saying that Trump is an antisemite, and I don't believe he is one; that's JD Vance who said that Trump "could be the next Hitler." I'm not saying that; I am saying that he's a plain and simple narcissist who, like everything else in his life, exploits Jews to his benefit but doesn't care about them. Trump normalized and empowered a cesspool of hateful crackpots who, in the name of freedom of speech, pushed antisemitism into the mainstream. JD Vance is officially the zookeeper, petting all the animals and ensuring they are being treated nicely and handled with care, and if someone says something like, "Hey, those animals are dangerous," he blames us Jews, but it was Trump who opened the cage. His moody relationship with Netanyahu is not what makes him pro- or anti-Jewish. To me it's more of a factor that he can't fully denounce and disavow Holocaust deniers and Hitler fanboys like Nick Fuentes, full stop. This isn't about free speech; no one asked to have Fuentes jailed, but his hateful views shouldn't be normalized or treated as cute opinions. We all see on an hourly basis how Trump deals with someone he REALLY doesn't approve of. Moving the embassy doesn’t buy absolution for empowering people who want us gone. Steve Bannon at TPUSA's America Fest last month literally used the "embassy move" as a reason why he should be listened to when he vouches for Tucker and other crackpots because "you can't get a better defender of Israel than Steve Bannon. In the White House, I'm the one that pushed initially hard to move the embassy to Jerusalem." Please spare me the “most pro-Israel and pro-Jewish president ever” talking points. He's the most "pro-Trump president ever," solely focused on his interests. He won't denounce the most significant cancer of hate in America, Tucker Carlson, because "he's nice to me," but he'll have 2am Truth Social explosions at Tucker if he says something mean about him. Once Tucker apologizes to him, all is good. It's all about him. After Oct. 7, the most horrific day on the Jewish calendar since the Holocaust, President Biden traveled to Israel and spoke about the relationship of the U.S. and Israel and not about himself. This is because he saw it as a relationship between two allied countries, and that's what it is. Trump sees it as a relationship between himself and how much Israel's PM will kiss his ring. He repeatedly said after Oct. 7 how bad it is for Bibi, not for the people of Israel, for Bibi, because that's what he sees—how Bibi treats him. He was still furious at him for congratulating Biden on winning the election; it's all about him. Bibi must travel to Mar-a-Lago, create bogus Israel peace prizes, and say, "You're the best president," just as I tell my toddler, "You're the best boy." When Biden had his issues with Bibi, he kept making it clear again and again to the people of Israel that he and Bibi disagree currently, but even if it's out in the open, he'll help protect them from Iran if necessary, and he did. After Oct. 7, Biden spoke to Jewish leaders from his heart about how he takes his family to visit Auschwitz to teach them about the Holocaust. I have never heard him demand that Jews vote in a specific way. Trump despicably told parents of hostages who were captured in Gaza that their kids were captured because of Biden and how great he is. I listened to Trump on the first anniversary of Oct 7; all he spoke about was him, himself, and Donald Trump. And that, if not for the rigged elections, it would have never happened. My point is that Trump is a master in manipulating people's minds; he does the big moves to create headlines, hoping everyone buys it, and then demands publicly absolute loyalty. Enough.
