This is a mix of different types of media including sports, news, whatever HuffPo and BuzzFeed are supposed to be, etc.

Many American Jews are worried Trump's decision to define Judaism as a nationality and not just a religion will do far more harm than good

 

Halie Soifer, Executive Director at the Jewish Democratic Council of America, said Tuesday that Trump's executive order represented the "height of hypocrisy." 

 

"If President Trump truly wanted to address the scourge of anti-Semitism he helped to create, he would accept responsibility for his role emboldening white nationalism, perpetuating anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, and repeating stereotypes that have led to violence targeting Jews," she said in a statement.

 

"Instead, President Trump continues to view Israel and anti-Semitism solely through a political lens, which he attempts to use to his political advantage."

What is this all about? Jews are a nationality? 

 

There must be some serious bull sh it behind this obviously naked attempt to appease some interest group, but who? 

 

My rabbi never called for Jewish nationality (I'm not Jewish)

Yup, the evil Trump created this.

 

Quote

Vaughn, the West Ward council representative, also told constituents on Facebook that “to Jew someone down is a verb," and not offensive.
