Tell other Jewish voters that Israel and America are at stake

Former President Donald Trump told attendees at the Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) annual leadership meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada, on Thursday that They must convince other Jews to vote Republican to save Israel and America.

Donald Trump, who has already spoken in person several times at the meeting, has been speaking via satellite since the election campaign. He has promised to speak in person next year, as the 47th president of the United States.

He began his speech with a tribute to Hersh Goldberg-Polin, the 23-year-old Israeli-American who was murdered last week, along with five other hostages, by Hamas terrorists before he could be rescued.

“Only a deeply sick political party here in America” would join forces with those who sympathize with such evil, Trump said of Democrats. He called President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris “morally rotten” for blaming Israel for terrorist acts against it.

He warned that if Harris won, Israel would no longer have an ally in the White House. “And our country, America, would never survive if they succeed.”

Trump cited his many accomplishments in Middle East policy, including defeating ISIS, pulling out of the Iran nuclear deal, withdrawing from the anti-Israel United Nations Human Rights Council, moving the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem, recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the Golan Heights and crafting the Abraham Accords between Israel and several Arab states — a process that stalled under Biden and Harris.

He noted that the Biden-Harris administration had restored funding to terrorism-related agencies in Palestinian areas, removed the Houthis from the list of terrorist organizations and given Iran access to billions of dollars in funds.

Trump has promised to bring stability to the Middle East and “peace through strength.” He warned that if Harris is elected, Israel’s enemies will continue to wage a “relentless” war against the country.

He pointed to the high percentage of Jews who vote Democratic and asked his Republican audience to explain to their fellow Jews that if Harris wins, “there will be no Israel…if she becomes president. Israel will no longer exist.”

He added, to applause from the audience, that he would expel jihadist and Hamas sympathizers from the country. “If you hate America, if you want to eliminate Israel, then we don’t want you in our country.”

He added, to another standing ovation, that he would “warn all university presidents: The American taxpayer will never subsidize the creation of terrorist sympathizers on American soil.” He added that he would revoke the accreditation and federal funding of any university that did not end anti-Semitic propaganda.

Above all, Trump said, Jews must convince other Jews to vote Republican — and make sure they do.

“In November, you have to get Jews or people who love Israel to vote Republican. You have to get them to vote for Trump,” he urged the audience.

Dr. Miriam Adelson, whose late husband, Sheldon, was a major RJC supporter and supporter of the State of Israel, introduced Trump by telling the gathering that he was “a president who has already proven that he is committed to Israel, who has already proven to us that what he promises, he will deliver.”

“He’s our best friend. He’s going to save us. And I look forward to him coming into the White House and saving the Jewish people.”
