By Brett Samuels - 08/21/19 12:05 PM EDT
President Trump on Wednesday doubled down on his assertion that Democratic voters are being “disloyal†to Jewish people and Israel.
“You vote for a Democrat you’re being very disloyal to Jewish people people and being very disloyal to Israel,†Trump told reporters as he left the White House for a speech in Kentucky.
Trump on Tuesday said Jews who vote for Democrats either "lack knowledge" or show "great disloyalty."
The comment came as he railed against two progressive congresswomen who have been critical of the U.S.-Israel alliance, and questioned how the Democratic Party could defend them.
