.AOC accuses Donald Trump of 'atrocious antisemitism' over Israeli-American Council 'wealth tax' comments
Sunday afternoon,"Much as we appreciate your unwavering support for Israel, surely there must be a better way to appeal to American Jewish voters, as you just did in Florida, than by money references that feed age-old and ugly stereotypes. Let's stay off that mine-infested road."
Trump thanked Republican congressmen Jim Jordan of Ohio and Michael Waltz of Florida for attending the event in which he rehashed his controversial relocation of the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
Omar and Tlaib were both prohibited from visiting Israel in August over fears from Trump ally and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's concerns they would incite Palestinian protests. Omar echoed many American critics of Trump and Netanyahu in decrying the $3 billion in annual aid given to the United States' Middle East ally being met with partisan ridicule of Democratic lawmakers.
"[De]nying a visit to duly elected members of Congress is not consistent with being an ally, and denying millions of people freedom of movement or expression or self-determination is not consistent with being a democracy," Omar said in August while appearing at Minnesota's state house in St. Paul,Trump was previously accused of floating politically based"dual loyalty tropes" after he gave a speech in August claiming Democrats are opposed to Israel's existence.
"I think Jewish people that vote for a Democrat — I think it shows either a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty," the president said at the time. But several conservative Israeli and Republican figures praised Trump's comments this past weekend on social media, citing his previous jokes using Jewish stereotypes.
