One thought on “Debate | Should Jews Still Be Democrats?”
To the defender of Jews not voting for Trump. He did not say fine people “marching” on both sides. You somehow inserted this word into your sentence above. He said there were “very fine people on both sides.” His statement was edited in the press. I read the entire statement, but I don’t think all readers are aware of it. He explained that he was referring to four groups, and some were bystanders on both sides. He also disavowed Neo-Nazis in his statement. Although I did not vote for him, I can see where the press has made him look like a bigot. In the town hall on NBC last night, the interviewer also seemed to have a bias, and he had to disavow white supremacy once again. I am not defending anything else in your argument; just questioning your own sentence.
