An argument can be made that Trump's approach to antisemitism versus racism is hypocritical. While he has strongly condemned antisemitism in certain contexts, he has often failed to take a similarly strong stance against racism, particularly when it involves his political base. Here are some points to support this argument:
Selective Condemnation – Trump has forcefully denounced antisemitism when it aligns with his political interests (e.g., supporting Israel, appealing to Jewish allies), but he has been hesitant or ambiguous when addressing white supremacist groups or systemic racism.
Double Standard on Hate Speech – He criticized antisemitic attacks and threats but downplayed or ignored racist rhetoric and violence (e.g., his response to Charlottesville or his attacks on Black public figures).
Weaponizing Race and Religion – While condemning antisemitism, he has also used racist and xenophobic rhetoric, such as calling African nations “shithole countries” or telling U.S. congresswomen of color to "go back" to their countries.
Appeasing Extremists – His reluctance to fully denounce white nationalism, while strongly supporting policies that align with far-right Israeli interests, suggests political opportunism rather than principled opposition to hate.
How about a program asking Roy about that??
