During a free-flowing and often self-congratulatory speech Saturday at the Republican Jewish Coalition’s annual leadership conference, President Donald Trump slammed freshman representatives in Congress, accused asylum seekers of being “scam” artists and once again said his son-in-law Jared Kushner was the most qualified person to secure peace in the Middle East.
The quip came just one day after a man was arrested for threatening to murder Omar over spurious, conspiratorial claims that falsely paint her as an agent for the Muslim Brotherhood. “The asylum program is a scam,” Trump said on Saturday. “Some of the roughest people that you’ve ever seen. People that look like they should be fighting for the UFC. They read a little page given by lawyers that are all over the place. They tell them what to say. You look at this guy, you say, wow, that’s a tough cookie.”
He doesn’t belong in leadership
Kushner is pro Israeli (hence anti Palestinian) so he his not qualified at all to be a peace broker by that fact alone.
And the moon is made of swiss cheese!
He's evil.
Trump tries to equate being anti Israeli government with being anti-Jewish. It just pisses me off. And trying to sell Kushner as some miracle worker in the Middle East is ridiculous. All he really wants to do is troll for cash over there.
Peace is attainable via peaceful people. That Trump, et al, are so morally bankrupt the prospect for peace via their Kushner is a grandeous illusion as big as their egos. Debbie
And he’s basing this entirely on the fact that Kushner is Jewish. Like a typical racist.
Jared Kushner has no experience with foreign policy.
Consider his words about Charlottesville? Why has the rate of hate crimes go up since the elections of 2016?
Insanity
He also referred to Natanyahu as 'your prime minister' to a roomful of American Jews
and trump is santa claus
Really? Jared Kushner is now a Middle-East expert? Hmm...how did that happen?
