WASHINGTON — The annual Holocaust remembrance ceremony at the Capitol is typically a noncontroversial event. But Tuesday’s commemoration is fast becoming a rallying point for critics who accuse the Trump White House of courting white nationalists and playing down the suffering of Jews.

In his first three months in office, President Trump has found himself at the center of recurrent and at times bewildering controversies surrounding his relationship with Jews. His daughter Ivanka is a convert to Judaism and is raising her children Jewish.

This month, Sean Spicer, the White House press secretary, said that Adolf Hitler had not used chemical weapons against his own people, though Mr. Spicer later apologized profusely. And in a news release for Tuesday’s event at the Capitol, the White House copied, nearly word for word, language posted on the website of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, which is sponsoring the commemoration.

Some Jewish groups have already expressed concern about the White House chief strategist, Stephen K. Bannon, who was accused by a former wife of making anti-Jewish comments, and his deputy, Sebastian Gorka, who has been accused of links to far-right groups in Europe. The criticism goes back to the 2016 presidential campaign, when Trump supporters fired anti-Semitic attacks at his opponents and at journalists viewed as hostile to his candidacy.
