I believe there is a reason we see an uptick of violent actions close to elections.

Quote:
“Mr. Trump’s final TV ad [of his 2016 campaign] famously featured Janet Yellen, chairwoman of the Federal Reserve; and Lloyd Blankfein, chairman of Goldman Sachs — all of them Jewish — amid dog-whistle language about ‘special interests’ and ‘global special interests’,” he wrote. “A genie was let out of the bottle, which may take generations to put back in, and it wasn’t confined to the United States.”

At the time of the ad, a number of Jewish groups condemned what they said were its anti-Semitic insinuations.

George Soros has featured large in Republican and right-wing rhetoric surrounding the 2018 midterm elections, including in conspiracy theories linking the philanthropist to a caravan of migrants from Central America and protests against the nomination of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. Trump has amplified some of the theories, for which he and others have provided no evidence.

Quote:
The video, billed as "Donald Trump's Argument for America," assails what the presidential candidate calls the Washington establishment's ties with "global special interests," so-called people "that don’t have your good in mind.”

The only problem: the figures Trump's campaign chose to illustrate both are exclusively Jewish and from the financial world.

Yes, the left will bring up the Jewishness of the persons in the ad; the masses wouldn't have known it.

The "masses?" How many times has the right bashed Jewish philanthropist, Soros?

Choper said the rhetoric by President Donald Trump has made it acceptable for people to be anti-semitic. He went on to say the mentality espoused by Trump has also made it OK to go after "others" — minorities, gays, transgender people, and anyone different than the majority.

So is Soros off limits because he's Jewish? How about Jared Kushner then?

Or is this another one of the left's one way streets?

Threats to Jewish communities became an epidemic starting around 2017. Some of the violence had anti-semitic graffiti along with pro-Trump statements.

I don't recall seeing any political ads attacking Kushner. Can you post them?

Funny how NOW the left is worried about anti-Semitism when the last president had spent TWENTY YEARS in a racist, anti-Semitic church, as well as being really friendly with another outspoken anti-Semite named Louis Farrakhan.

Another one of the left's one way streets.

Kushner is hated by the left; doesn't need to be any "ads."

See Facebook, Twatter, Instagram, and the MSM for further details!

Another example: One would think the GOP would be a bit more sensitive than to make political ads right after a bombing attempt.

Quote:
House Republicans’ campaign committee released a new ad attacking billionaire Democratic donor George Soros as a “radical” on Wednesday, just two days after a bomb was found in Soros’s mailbox.
Quote:
Soros’s donations to liberal causes have made him a frequent target for Republican attacks and conspiracy theories over the last decade.
