Republican Jewish Coalition backs Trump
NEW YORK – The Republican Jewish Coalition endorsed
the sole remaining Republican presidential candidate, Donald Trump, on Wednesday, an hour after South Carolina Gov. Niki Haley suspended her presidential campaign.
The RJC released a video in which they called Trump the
most pro-Israel president in history.
“Today, in the aftermath of the October 7 Hamas terror
ist attack, support for the Jewish community and the State of Israel is more important than ever. Donald J. Trump is the trusted friend we need in these perilous times,” RJC
said in a statement.
The coalition said Trump will be the president of “prosperity, security, and peace through strength.”
“The world is on fire, from the Middle East to Europe, to the Indo-Pacific,” it said. “Our southern border is [at] an unmitigated catastrophe as hundreds of thousands of undocumented immigrants flood into the country. American cities and law enforcement are overwhelmed by skyrocketing crime as the rate of antisemitic hate crimes continues to break record highs.”
US President Joe Biden and the Democratic Party have failed miserably, RJC added, and Biden cannot be trusted
on issues regarding Israel.
“In these dangerous times for the Jewish state, Biden’s
lousy record stands in stark contrast to President Trump’s historic policy accomplishments, which strengthened the US-Israel relationship, including the Abraham Accords peace
agreements, moving the US embassy to Jerusalem, and recognizing Jerusalem as the eternal capital of the Jewish people, and recognizing Israeli sovereignty over the strategic
Golan Heights,” the statement said.
