      Let's be clear about this: Trump is trying to foment hostility between American Jews & POC. This is something that should upset everyone but especially POC and Jews, including the small minority of Jews who support Trump.https://twitter.com/brianbeutler/status/1152306385713094656 …

      Moments after this, he falsely accused the squad of referring to "evil Jews." This is an obscene, dangerous, and, yes, evil lie, and it went uncorrected by either the reporters at the White House or the studio anchor and panelists after they carried it unedited.

      I would argue that the intended audience is evangelicals, who have very particular priorities with regards to Israel (destruction of Palestinians to facilitate end-of-days mass conversion of the Jews). Jews themselves — the real ones — are ancillary to the conversation at best.

      Oh, absolutely evangelicals are the main audience for this. But there's also an attempt (which has overwhelmingly failed) to peal off some Jewish voters using Israel as a wedge.

          Why do they even think they can turn a group that voted overwhelmingly (iirc 70-73%) against him? And like. Is it because they believe in “Jewish power” that they would even try? We’re maybe 2% of the population.

          Every time I consider the numbers I come away with 1) woof that really is for the Evangelicals 2) we’re too small to matter to these ppl unless they believe some really heinous shit about us. Like I know we matter. But why would they care about a minority unless those 2 things
