Um. What did he do?
(I’m a NY Jew who didn’t see a hint of antisemitism in him, but saw a whole lot of people trying to spin antisemitism out of nothing but swarthy skin and a Muslim faith. Did he actually do or say something that justifies all those accusations?)

When Trump was first elected in 2016, the next morning, while walking my dog,i was struck that the country had just elected a man who, without doubt, would never pick up and bag his dog’s poop.
