Trump deletes tweet using Star of David after backlash
By Paulina Firozi
Donald Trump on Saturday tweeted an image accusing Hillary Clinton of being "corrupt" with a six-pointed star, before deleting it hours later after a loud chorus of backlash.
The presumptive GOP presidential nominee’s image showd the words “Most Corrupt Candidate Ever!” on a red six-pointed star that many have pointed out resembles the Star of David, a symbol that appears on the Israeli flag and is commonly associated with Judaism.
The star was superimposed over an image of $100 bills and an image of Clinton often used by her campaign that reads “History made.”
Two hours after the initial post, Trump tweeted a different version of the same image, this time with a circle under the words "Most Corrupt Candidate Ever!" instead of the star.
Shortly after the second tweet, Trump deleted the original.
