I'm sure they'll be fine, as the secret service is protecting them.
But that isn't even the point. This orthodox reporter went out of his way to say that neither he, nor anyone he knows, thinks Donnie is antisemitic, yet that went ignored and Donnie saw his question as an assault on HIM.

Trump is a moron. We all know that. And the rise in anti-Semitic attacks is deeply disturbing. But I just think it's odd that Trump is seen as the most anti-Semitic of Presidents, when he has far more Jewish associations and family members than any previous Commander-in-Chief (Chelsea Clinton got married to Marc Mezvinsky some years after her dad was President). And he also has a very good (maybe too good) a relationship with Israel.

Unless you're saying that the reporter links the uprise in antisemitism to Donnie himself, or him being elected, I don't know where you're going with this.

Well, that seemed to be a partial implication of the reporter.
Why do you think there has been a rise in anti-Semitic attacks? Do you think it has nothing to do with Trump?
Honest question: who are committing these attacks/threats?

Donnie's said some dumb things when it comes to Jews, but I don't believe he's antisemitic. Upticks in Islamaphobia can be traced back to him. Upticks in violence against illigal immigrants can be traced back to him. But AFAIK, the antisemitism increase has nothing to do with him. The reporter went out of his way to say he doesn't believe Donnie is antisemitic, so how could the question have been loaded, implying that Donnie's the cause?
Yeeeeesh. The reporter wanted to know what Donnie's administration is going to do on the topic. But in reading this thread, it seems as tho no Jew can ask him that. Sad.

Really? Hmmmmmmmmm. I guess it's reasonable now to infer just about anything from what someone says.
Just exactly where was this inferred? Its not fair now to ask a POTUS what his administration will do about something? Really?
I mean, jeez, maybe if this question was asked a year from now you'd MAYBE have a point, but seeing as this was probably the first chance the reporter has had to ask the POTUS who just took over almost 4 weeks ago, then no, you don't have a point, nor do you get to infer some nefarious meaning behind a simple question.

^^People like this idiot is just shameful. He'll go in a rant on how its actually the reporter fault for the assclown to go off on him about being anti-Semitic although the guy went out his way to say he wasn't.but then say Obama was anti-Semitic based on no evidence other than not kissing Israel's ass.
This kind of frustrating crazy ass spin can only come from a Trump supporter who really thinks Trumps tax returns are still being audited.
If you can't even admit when the Assclown made a mistake then how can you question anything he does? Oh right, because you don't.

Well, the journalist is incorrect. Many people have accused him of being anti-Semitic because he is. Steve Bannon is his right-hand man, and Bannon is an anti-Semite. I mean, it is true that Trump has several Jewish grandchildren, a Jewish son-in-law (his other right-hand man), a Jewish daughter-in-law, and his daughter converted to Judaism, but that doesn't mean he isn't anti-Semitic.

I sure he had his reasons. BTW, your post was way too long for such a simple question. Didn't read it.
