I think people read through this.” A number of writers and journalists on social media questioned why Trump would mention “shekels,” seemingly oblivious to the anti-Semitic connotation coming amid the High Holy Days. “Eric Trump said this morning that Bob Woodward made ‘three extra shekels at the behest of the American people’ with his book,” Bill Kristol, editor-at-large of the Weekly Standard and a noted critic of President Donald Trump, wrote on Twitter. “Is Eric too stupid to know he’s being anti-Semitic?” Jonathan Weisman, The New York Times’ deputy Washington editor and author of “(((Semitism))): Being Jewish in the Age of Trump,” added that the comment was “outrageous.” “If you want to see how the neo-Nazis use the term ‘shekels’ take a quick glance at The Daily Stormer,’ Weisman tweeted of the well-known neo-Nazi and white supremacist website. “Eric Trump’s ‘three extra shekels’ attack on Bob Woodward is not some accident any more than Hillary Clinton’s image over a Star of David.” The Trump Organization, where Eric Trump is executive vice president, did not respond to a request for comment on his behalf. http://www...of-anti-semitism-after-remark/ So, he is not denying that he is an antisemite. |
