36. "The left has long had a problem with antisemitism."

Wed Jul 8, 2026, 12:32 PM

That is historically untrue. Democrats are not the ones who are anti-Semitic. Do you remember the march in Charlottesville? "Jews will not replace us"?

Democrats are not the ones who look at people's skin color or religion and try to shame them.

It is the right wing Netanyahu wing of the Israeli government that democrats everywhere are fighting against, just like we are fighting the right wing here.
