FormerĀ President TrumpĀ on Tuesday claimed Democrats ā€œhate Israelā€ and that Jewish voters who back Democrats hate their religion amid tensions between the Biden administration and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Trump, speaking with conservative radio hostĀ Sebastian Gorka,Ā was asked why Democrats like Senate Majority LeaderĀ Chuck SchumerĀ (D-N.Y.) ā€œhateā€ Netanyahu, a reference to Schumerā€™sĀ recent call for new electionsĀ in Israel.

ā€œI actually think they hate Israel,ā€ Trump responded. ā€œAnd the Democrat Party hates Israel.ā€

    A Democrat President is, right now, sending billions of dollars to Israel and shipping them weapons every 36 hours. Biden has even bypassed Congress multiple times (not that Congress is likely to have shot down the deal) just to make sure the Israelis are armed at the fastest pace possible. Yet another example of Trump inventing outrage for his base of worshippers who couldnā€™t care less about truth.
