President Trump Addresses the Israeli American Council National Summit

Today President Trump addressed the Israeli American Council National Summit. 

If you read the mainstream media you will be told that American Jewish groups are criticizing President Trump for his comments today at the Israeli American Council National Summit, because they claim he used "anti-Semitic tropes." Do not believe it. You need not rely on what I say--listen to the entire speech here. I did. The media, as usual, are lying.

Now, I will be the first to admit that Donald Trump is not a great speaker, if one likes formal, grammatically correct, flowing, poetic rhetoric. (Effectiveness and impact are different matters, however--he may be the most effective motivational speaker in the White House since President Reagan.)

In any event, this speech was probably the most pro-Israel, Judaeophilic speech ever made by a U.S. President. The "American Jewish groups" who are criticizing the President's address are the usual suspects: liberal, Democratic-orientated organizations who will never say anything positive about Donald Trump and who looked the other way when President Obama stabbed Israel in the back in the United Nations Security Council.

During his address, Donald Trump reviewed the unprecedented actions he had taken for Israel and the Jewish people. He moved the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem. He recognized Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights. He vigorously opposed and condemned BDS and anti-Semitism. (Not even mentioned by the President was his State Department's withdrawal of the Carter era legal opinion that Israeli settlements in Yehuda and Shomron are illegal.)

Most importantly, President Trump is actively opposing Iran, which poses an existential threat to Israel--clearly the most serious threat to the Jewish people today.

So where do these American Jewish groups get off trying to attack this President as an anti-Semite? They put their petty partisanship over the survival of Israel and lives of Jews. Shame on them!
