American Synagogues Invite 'Grieving' Jews to Mourn Trump's Victory

This isn't alt right fanfiction.

From Haaretz:

There were tears at preschool drop off hours after Donald Trump was declared president-elect, but at Congregation Beth Elohim in Brooklyn they weren’t from the 3-year-olds. It was parents who cried, many of them overcome by grief and fear after Hillary Clinton’s stunning loss to a man who throughout his campaign crudely expressed explicitly anti-Semitic, racist and sexist views.

Explicitly anti-Semitic views such as "Israel should pay us for defending them." What a monster!

During the course of the election, neurotic Jews – and many non-Jews, for the record – compared Trump to Hitler at every turn. In fact, some Jews literally believe that Trump harbors genocidal intentions toward their race.

This is absurd for a number of reasons. First and foremost, however, is the fact that every one of Trump's children married a Jew. In fact, his daughter, Ivanka, converted to Orthodox Judaism. In light of this, it's absurd to to suggest that Trump is going to instigate pogroms against the Jews.

The reality, of course, is that Jews hate Trump because he isn't beholden to them. For example, 95% of all Jewish donations went to Hillary, and Hillary's top five donors were Jewish. Futhermore, Jews supported Hillary more than any other group, with over 70% favoring her over Trump.

Some Jews are loyal to their host nations. Most, however, are not; they are instead loyal to their ethnic group. This is perfectly normal, but, quite frankly, I have no desire to share my country with foreign nationalists.
