Loopy right-wing rabbi Aryeh Spero let his pro-Trump sympathies go even more over the top than usual in a Nov. 29 CNSNews.com column:
On Tuesday, during an interview with The Washington Post, President Trump declared, “We wish to remain in the Middle East region for our interests and for Israel.”
It is once again apparent that President Trump has a deeply felt and unwavering tie to the Jewish state and the safety and viability of her citizens. His profuse commitment to Israel, and thus the Jewish people, is singular among Presidents. It is astoundingly genuine.
His commitment to Israel and the Jewish people continues despite the constant drumbeat against him from too many of the establishment liberal Jewish organizations here in America. He courageously, and with compassion, visited the Pittsburgh synagogue where in late October 11 Jews were gunned down. He did this despite the hostile, divisive, and obnoxious slogans and press releases made against him by liberal Jewish groups demanding that he not come.
Spero offers no actual evidence that Trump’s pro-Israel sympathies are “genuine” or anything else other than a cynical political calculation to attact right-wing Jews and Christians to support him.
Spsero goes on to complain: “By now it is obvious that liberal Jewish groups will always come up with some reason to criticize Mr. Trump’s actions no matter how sincere and good he may be.” And by now it is obvious that Spero will not pass judgment on the immoral acts of Trump’s personal life as long as he toes the right-wing line and adheres to Spero’s political agenda — which is anything but sincere on Spero’s part.
