This is a very old attack that Jews have had to deal with for generations, where our loyalty to country is questioned simply because of our religion.

Unfortunately, once again, I am having to speak out about the use of an anti-Semitic trope by the President. When the President calls Jews “disloyal” for voting for Democratic candidates, the implication is that American Jews have a dual loyalty — to our country and to Israel.

The President’s comments continue a deliberate and misguided attempt to make support for Israel a partisan issue, breaking with a bipartisan tradition that goes back to the founding of the state of Israel. It is simply toxic.

I had some consciousness-raising concerning these anti-Semitic tropes & now have a clear understanding of how the vicious & divisive it is. Congresswoman is right. Trump is employing historically evil techniques to make us afraid & divided. Don't fall for his dangerous rhetoric.

There is also an implication that, for some reason, is never questioned. Are you wrong if you are not an ardent nationalist? If nationalism is not a top priority, are you ill-fit to be a citizen, regardless of how fair and just you live? It is an important subtlety.
