On Wednesday, Donald Trump criticized Jewish voters who support President Joe Biden.
He said they need to “have their head examined.”
Trump’s comments are like the mirror opposite of President Joe Biden’s famous line, “If you have a problem figuring out whether if you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.”

Trump Questions the Mental Sanity of Jewish-American Biden Voters
Trump spoke in Atlanta ahead of a fundraiser, where the likely GOP presidential nominee continued to criticize Biden’s handling of the Israel-Hamas war.
“Biden has totally lost control of the Israel situation,” said Trump.
He added, “Any Jewish person who votes for a Democrat or votes for Biden should have their head examined.”
PBS reported, “Trump spoke after Biden last week warned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that future U.S. support for Israel’s Gaza war depends on the swift implementation of new steps to protect civilians and aid workers. In Trump’s interpretation, Biden ‘has totally abandoned Israel.”
The story continued:
The Gaza conflict has sandwiched Biden between conservatives – both Christian and Jewish – who want stalwart support for Netanyahu’s government, and progressives. The matter is important to conservative Christians, among Trump’s most supportive constituencies, who see the political state of Israel as the modern manifestation of God’s chosen people, the Israelites of the Old Testament in the Christian Bible.
Biden’s left flank, though, is dominated by progressives incensed by Israel’s retaliation in Gaza that has resulted in thousands of Palestinian deaths. The president has repeatedly been greeted by protesters throughout his spring travels, and activists have organized votes against Biden in many Democratic primaries, even as he coasts to renomination.

‘This is What Trump Does, Using Division and Hate’
Team Biden spokesman said in response to Trump’s remarks, “Jewish Americans do not need to be ‘spoken to’ or threatened by Donald Trump.”
“This is what Trump does, using division and hate as political weapons while seeking power for himself,” he added. “Voters of all stripes will reject his chaos, violence and unhinged threats once again in November.”
Obviously Trump believes he has a better approach to the Middle East conflict than the president, hence his remarks about Jewish voters needing their “heads checked” if they back Biden.
Don’t expect Donald Trump’s mind to change anytime soon. How all this will affect the November election, time will tell.
