Kamala Harris’ husband Douglas Emhoff is a Jew and the first Jewish spouse of an American vice president. But Donald Trump said Kamala Harris does not like Jewish people notwithstanding the fact that she is married to one. In an interview on WABC radio Tuesday, Trump said Harris dislikes Jews and Israel more than Biden. She looked uncomfortable meeting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu last week, Trump said.When show host Sid Rosenberg said Kamala is married to a Jew, a ‘crappy’, a ‘horrible’ Jew, Trump stood by his comment and also agreed that Doug is a ‘crappy Jew’.
‘You can see the disdain’
Trump said Kamala Harris has visible disdain for the Jews and everyone knows it but nobody wants to say it. “No. 1, she doesn’t like Israel. No. 2, she doesn’t like Jewish people. You know it, I know it and everybody knows it and nobody wants to say it.”
Trump said Jewish voters who back Democrats “should have their head examined” and “if you’re Jewish, if you vote for a Democrat, you’re a fool, an absolute fool. They have let Jewish people down since Obama at a level that nobody could believe.”
“She (Kamala) dislikes Jewish people and Israel even more than Biden did,” Trump said.
The interview host, Sid Rosenberg, then mentioned Harris’ husband, second gentleman Doug Emhoff and said, “He’s Jewish like Bernie Sanders is Jewish. Are you kidding me?”
“Yeah,” Trump said.
“He’s a crappy Jew,” Rosenberg said, continuing.
“Yeah,” Trump said again.
Rosenberg went on, saying of Emhoff, “He’s a horrible Jew.”
If Kamala Harris wins, Doug would become the first Jewish resident of the White House — though Trump’s daughter Ivanka and son-in-law Jared Kushner were frequent visitors during Trump’s presidency. The vice president’s residence has mezuzahs affixed on the doorsteps. Emhoff earlier said he will fight antisemitism and that will never change.
Emhoff’s daughter Ella meanwhile drew criticism for posting a fundraising like to the United National agency for Palestinian refugees.
Emhoff’s office did not comment on the latest attack from Donald Trump.
