>Donald Trump tweeted a blatantly anti-Semitic image Saturday morning, causing an immediate backlash online and further confirming the Republican nominee is willing to sink to depths well beyond usual, acceptable bounds of politics.
The tweet, posted at roughly 8:30 a.m., featured a picture of Hillary Clinton pasted over a backdrop of $100 bills with a six-pointed star — the Jewish Star of David — next to her face.
>This is not a dog whistle. It’s not subtle. It is anti-Semitic imagery aimed at a candidate who isn’t even Jewish.
>The irony, of course, is that Trump has Jewish relatives. His daughter Ivanka converted to Judaism when she married Jared Kushner, who is Jewish himself. Their kids are Jewish too. Trump even has a number of Jewish backers.
>Trump adviser Roger Stone sent an email to HuffPost several hours after this article was posted, with the subject line: Total Horseshit.
“A sheriff badge is the same shape as the Star of David,” Stone wrote. “You should be ashamed to publish crap like this - but then you don’t work for a real news organization.”

Do you think they actually believe it's trump being anti-Semitic or they are just diverting the public from the Jew being named.

MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, IT'S NOT ANTI-SEMITIC. WOULDN'T THAT EXPLAIN THE ODD ATTRIBUTION OF ANTI-SEMITIC SENTIMENTS TO A NON-JEW?

Anti-Semitism: Here is the definition of Anti-Semitism from the lips of a Jew: “Anti-Semitism does NOT signify opposition to Semitism. THERE IS NO SUCH THING. It is an expression we use effectively as a SMEARWORD, used to brand anyone who brings criticism against us.” ~ Harold W. Rosenthal (Jewish), administrative assistant for then-U.S. Senator Jacob K. Javits (Jewish) of New York, in an interview with American Christian magazine editor, Walter White.

I don't care what anybody says, it's fucking asinine to call that star the Star of David.

It's weird that they would put this in the article but then keep the article up, it totally invalidates their entire point in the most embarrassing way possible.
I guess all they really need is the headline though.

Best part is the subject line of the email was: Total Horseshit. And only God knows why they'd include that in the article so people can agree with stone
it looks like the graphic was changed to a circle instead and reworded slightly.
He should have left it, now he actually looks he's agreeing with the original assertion and it's getting taken up by more legitimate news sources, a very un-trumplike mistake

This whole episode was enormously positive. Think about it:
1. It was a six pointed badge turned at an angle, not really a Star of David. It wasn't a particularly offensive image to begin with.
2. He quickly replaced the image with one having a circular badge, eliminating any real controversy.
3. Any normies who hear about this will think, "Wait, really?? Influential Jews were up in arms about that?"
There's no downside to any of this. Just a slight uptick in weariness toward Jews by normal people.

Plus, the picture describing Clinton as corrupt is now getting surreal amounts of publicity.

Trump is a greater mediator than anyone ever thought. He brought hem together.

>implying a man with a jewish daughter, son in law and grand children would do such a thing
these people are such biased morons. the man posted a picture of a sheriff's badge, was likely notified that it coincidentally looked like a star of david and changed it accordingly as to avoid confusion.
nice to see their bigotry get the better of them, though.

Ayy lmao. What ever the outcome this election Trump has displayed the political establishment is truly the most incompetent lot of human rabble. I wonder at what point do career politicians accept that they've sold their soul.
