Uh, let
me tell you something you probably already know. In fact, you probably figured out long ago, Donald Trump is a broken human. I knew something was amiss when the real estate mogul rode down the escalator at Trump Tower in New York in June 2015, and declared his fear based candidacy for the presidency by declaring my Mexican grandfather, a criminal, a rapist and a drug trafficker. More red flags went up when Trump disparaged women, mocked a disabled reporter, made excuses for white supremacists, whined about how the United States takes in too many migrants from, quote, shithole countries, and portrayed himself as a victim at every single turn. And oh yes, it was that ugly piece of business on January 6, 2021
where Trump incited a riot at the US Capitol after losing his reelection bid, rather than give up power peacefully and gracefully. To be sure, none of that behavior speaks well of Trump. It makes him a bully, a blowhard and a boar, but broken, yes, the broken part comes from something deep inside of him. It has to do with his complete lack of social skills, the fact that he has no tact or respect for others. It comes from the fact that he doesn’t have the slightest bit of respect or empathy for people who don’t look like him, pray like him, or think like him. It comes from the fact that he has this terrible habit born of entitlement, where he presumptuously barges into the personal space of groups to which he does not belong, and then starts a messy food fight that destroys that space for others. I mean, what kind of person goes before a room of Black Journalists and questions whether his opponent, who was born of a black father and an Indian mother, is really black who does that? I could say that sort of thing is rude, but that word wouldn’t begin to cover what that is. And now, more recently, what kind of person takes it upon himself as a non Jew to decide who’s a good Jew and who’s a bad Jew. Recently, Trump gave a speech via satellite to attendees of the Republican Jewish coalition’s annual leadership summit in Las Vegas, he told those Jewish Republicans that they have to convince other Jews not to vote for vice president Kamala Harris, who Trump in recklessly overheated language, referred to as, quote, an enemy of Israel who does that so, As Trump sees it, Israel’s fighting the three H’s, Hamas, Hezbollah and Harris, as if our Jewish friends didn’t have enough to worry about at a moment like this, with Israel fighting a two front war in Gaza and Lebanon, and with anti semitism surging all around the globe now, they have to contend with a former US president and demagogue who insists that real Jews don’t vote for Democrats. One of the benefits to being Mexican American in the Southwest is you tend to have really good antenna when it comes to political candidates who pick on marginalized groups and attempt to portray them as the problem.
See, we’ve seen this movie before. Trump told the Jewish Republicans that if Harris is elected, quote, you’re not going to have an Israel anymore. Then it got worse and weird. Trump also seems to be auditioning for his next reality show. They should call it the biggest victim. Everyone is out to get him, and life is just so darned unfair, you see? Quote, I really haven’t been treated, right? He told the audience, implying that Jewish voters should be showing him more love. Quote, if I don’t win this election, in my opinion, he went on, the Jewish people would have a lot to do with a loss. That’s just crate with so many heavily armed whack jobs out there who are eager to use violence to assert their privilege, Trump has started the process of blaming the Jews. If he loses this election, what could possibly go wrong with a plan like that? Like I said, this guy is broken. Broken, broken.
Donald Trump already blaming Jews for his expected loss
By Straight Arrow News
Former President Donald Trump recently delivered remarks at the Republican Jewish Coalition in Las Vegas, Nevada. In his speech, Trump warned that Israel would cease to exist if Kamala Harris were to win the U.S. election, and pre-emptively blamed Jewish Americans if he were to lose. Trump also made an appeal to Jewish voters — who have traditionally leaned heavily Democratic but whose support could benefit him in key battleground states.
Watch the video above as Straight Arrow News contributor Ruben Navarrette explains how shifting blame onto others is key to Trump’s playbook, proving that the GOP candidate is a fundamentally “broken human.”

See, we’ve seen this movie before. Trump told the Jewish Republicans that if Harris is elected, “you’re not going to have an Israel anymore.” Then it got worse, and weird. Trump also seems to be auditioning for his next reality show. They should call it: “The Biggest Victim.” Everyone is out to get him, and life is just so darned unfair, you see?
“I really haven’t been treated right,” [Trump] told the audience, implying that Jewish voters should be showing him more love. “If I don’t win this election, in my opinion,” [Trump] went on, “the Jewish people would have a lot to do with a loss.”
That’s just crazy. With so many heavily-armed whackjobs out there who are eager to use violence to assert their privilege, Trump has started the process of blaming the Jews if he loses this election. What could possibly go wrong with a plan like that? Like I said, this guy is broken, broken, broken.
