(The Guardian) White House condemns Trump's 'antisemitic' and 'derogatory' remarks about Shapiro
The White House has condemned a social media post by Donald Trump last night that called Josh Shapiro the “highly overrated Jewish Governor of the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania”.
Trump, posting to Truth Social, wrote that Shapiro had “refused to acknowledge that I am the best friend that Israel, and the Jewish people, ever had”. Shapiro “has done nothing for Israel, and never will”, Trump added.
In response, Herbie Ziskend, the White House’s principal deputy communications director, said: It is antisemitic, dangerous, and hurtful to attack a fellow American by calling out their Jewish faith in a derogatory way, or perpetuating the centuries-old smear of “dual loyalty.” President Biden and Vice President Harris believe we must come together as Americans to condemn and combat Antisemitism – and hate and bigotry of all kinds.
