On Yom HaShoah, Biden Campaign Reminds Everyone, “Trump has praised neo-Nazis, dined with neo-Nazis, echoed the rhetoric of neo-Nazis, and reportedly praised the accomplishments of Adolf Hitler”

Statement on Holocaust Remembrance Day, a Reminder of Trump’s Antisemitic Behavior

This Holocaust Remembrance Day (Yom HaShoah) we recognize the past, and at a time of rising antisemitism – understand our shared future must be fought for.

It’s why it’s important to remember there is one candidate in the race who stands with the Jewish community and against antisemitism: Joe Biden.

The other hangs with antisemites and has a history of antisemitic behavior: Donald Trump. Just ask the antisemites.

Donald Trump has a long history of antisemitic behavior, hanging out with antisemites, and attacking Jewish Americans:

• Trump has reportedly said Adolf Hitler did “some good things”
• Trump praised some of the neo-Nazi marchers in Charlottesville who chanted “Jews will not replace us” as “very fine people”
• Trump, in recent months, has repeatedly attacked Jewish Americans, including with a celebrator of Nazi-linked groups – saying they should be ‘ashamed’ and ‘have their head examined’
• Trump echoed the rhetoric of fascists and compared his political opponents to Nazis
• Trump has used the same language as Hitler and Mussolini, calling his political opponents “vermin” who must be “root[ed out]” and saying immigrants are “poisoning the blood of our country.”
• Trump dined at Mar-a-Lago with white nationalist Nick Fuentes. Fuentes previously said “perfidious Jews” should be executed.
• Trump, during Rosh Hashanah, attacked Jews who did not support him as wanting to “destroy America.”
• Trump shared an antisemitic meme suggesting his opponent was controlled by Jews and their money
• Trump has endorsed multiple times a racist conspiracy theory pushed by neo-Nazis against Jews and immigrants
• Trump engages in antisemitic tropes all the time

Biden-Harris 2024 Spokesperson James Singer released the following statement:

“During Yom HaShoah, we remember and mourn the six million Jews who were murdered during the Holocaust. At a time of rising antisemitism and right-wing facism around the world, the promise of ‘Never Again’ is more meaningful than ever.

“President Biden stands against antisemitism and is committed to the safety of the Jewish community, and security of Israel – Donald Trump does not.

“Trump has praised neo-Nazis, dined with neo-Nazis, echoed the rhetoric of neo-Nazis, and reportedly praised the accomplishments of Adolf Hitler. He cannot lead us, so he seeks to divide us with the oldest of ideas – hate, anger, revenge, and retribution.

“We honor and remember that past we have fought against to ensure that divisive rhetoric, antisemitism, and hate-fueled violence have no place in our future.”
