(Pittsburgh) The progressive organization says the president should not visit until he decides to “fully denounce white nationalism.” Group of Jewish leaders to Trump: You are part of the problem A group of Pittsburgh Jewish leaders wrote an open letter to President Donald Trump Sunday telling him he bears responsibility for a deadly shooting at a synagogue in the US city. A mostly elderly group of 11 people were gunned down in the bloody assault on the Tree of Life synagogue on Saturday morning by a shooter who said he "wanted all Jews to die," while six more were wounded in the attack. "For the past three years your words and your policies have emboldened a growing white nationalist movement. You yourself called the murderer evil, but yesterday's violence is the direct culmination of your influence," the open letter said. It called on Trump to "fully denounce white nationalism," to "stop targeting and endangering all minorities," to "cease your assault on immigrants and refugees" and to "commit yourself to compassionate democratic policies that recognize the dignity of all of us." Until he does so, Trump -- who has announced his intent to visit Pittsburgh -- is not welcome in the city, the letter said. The shooting, which has sparked an outpouring of grief and shock from American Jews, came just days after a pipe bomb was sent to prominent Jewish philanthropist George Soros, who has been the target of what many see as anti-Semitic conspiracy theories. Such conspiracy theories, which accuse Jews of dominating government and finance, are rife among the so-called "alt-right" movement, which is supportive of Trump and has gained significant influence in recent years, including through the president's former chief strategist Steve Bannon. https://www.bendthearc.us/about http://www.thejakartapost.com/news/...p-you-are-part-of-the-problem-1540790086.html
I’m always on the fence about this stuff. The president should be welcomed anywhere in America but Trump is such a crude he really tests that ideal. Probably should have let him come but not allowed him to speak, IMO.
He has been unable be silent on personal attacks at non-political events for children. I think they are just being pragmatic. He has already blamed the victims for not having armed guards in the synagogue. He is the chief administrator of the government, personally I think that mythology about the presidency is good in that it unifies a large country but he is only a man and he is the gaslighter-in-chief. The tricks that he learned from befuddling angry tenants and various authoritarians he read the notes on are bad news for a country. It should be noted also that he and he family lied about being Swedish so Jewish people after the Holocaust rented their apartments. Even the first editions of his book in the 80s state his grandfather was from Sweden. If he was less 1930s German and more Swedish conservative that could work. Speaking to a NYC Jewish friend he is not bothered about the false family biography for personal enrichment just he finds the attacks on Warren (proven false now) too much alt-right.
It's not enough! You have to hate them more! You don't appear to hate them enough! You need to say exactly what we tell you to say and then we will decide what you need to do next! WAHHH WAHHHH WAHHHH!! SHUTTTTTT UPPPPPPPPPPP... With your stupid, vacuous letters of political rage. Absolutely retarded....
Rather. A Laces-the-Loser triggered on Monday. No surprise there. Perhaps they should symbolically invite the next president. Shit, even if that is Pence he can look sad pretty good now.
Brian Kilmeade says there’s “entire populations coming in here” bringing “diseases,” and keeping them out is “part of the reason why America’s America.” Indeed, I guess you could just innoculate them though most will be already via an NGO in their country but hey, when THIS is what you want people to think in 2018. "Poverty" in the right hand and "Disease" in the left. Source: Scanned from Fifty Great Cartoons (Chicago: The Ram’s Horn Press, 1899) unpaginated.

More fake news. This is a far left soros-funded group that issued the ridiculous statement that the President is "not welcome" unless he denounces a list of items. Of course the media made a big deal out of it. The Rabbi at the actual synagogue said of course Trump was welcome.
Just more fake news from the rabid left media. They have so much blood on their hands but they don’t give a shit.
