Jennifer CohnThis is a return to the days of the “alt right” & Charlottesville, & it’s likely Roger Stone pulling the strings. Trump will eventually “disavow.,” while leaving room for ambiguity, & his surrogates will still flirt w/ Fuentes & Kanye. But it may be enough to reel MAGA Jews back in. We’ll see. Stone calls politics “performance art.” He loves drama, has flirted w/ anti-semites b4, mentored Milo, & suggested a Trump/Kanye ticket in mid-Oct. #RogerStone #Kanye #kanyewest https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1597631194363224064.html
JenX@jennycohn Can someone please explain to me why Trump still had Jewish allies before this? After Charlottesville (very fine people) “stand back and stand by,” Kanye (“death con” on Jewish people,) and now Fuentes? Are they really surprised to see him playing footsie with the same people he has always played footsie with?
Ledermand@JenX @jennycohn Several reasons. Many are businessmen in the Corporate World and man of them are Republicans anyway and that tradition is unfortunately passed down to generations He moved US Embassy to Jerusalem. But many were pissed at him when he ended the Nuclear agreement with Iran allowing Iran to continue to invest in Nuclear technology.
