Karine Jean-Pierre condemns Trump's 'antisemitic and insulting comments' to both American Jews and Israel after his 'get their act together' Truth Social post

  • Donald Trump made the comments on his Truth Social app on Sunday morning
  • He said he was popular enough in Israel to become its prime minister 
  • The Anti-Defamation League told DailyMail.com that Trump's remarks were 'insulting and disgusting' and called them 'Jewsplaining'
  • It's not his first time criticizing American Jews who don't support him
  • It comes after rapper Ye was removed from Twitter for being anti-Semitic 
  • Co-founder of group Boundless Israel accused Trump of making a 'veiled threat'
  • Trump had accused Jews who voted for Democrats of being 'disloyal' in 2019 


The White House on Monday condemned former President Donald Trump for telling American Jews to be 'more appreciative' of his administration's work in Israel 'before it's too late.' 

Trump stirred outrage with the statement posted to his Truth Social app on Sunday morning, where the ex-president also claimed he was so popular in Israel that he could be its next prime minister.

'Donald Trump's comments were anti-Semitic, as you all know, and insulting, both to Jews and to our Israeli allies,' Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said at her daily briefing. 'But let's be clear - for years now, Donald Trump has aligned with extremist and anti-Semitic figures.'

The Biden official headed off accusations of partisanship, pointing out the administration's forceful response to the shockingly racist leaked audio from Los Angeles County officials last week.

Just like we called out our Democratic friends and colleagues last week, and we will condemn and call this out as well,' Jean-Pierre said. 'So we need to root out anti-Semitism everywhere it rears its ugly head. We need to call this out.'

'With respect to Israel, our relationship is ironclad. And it's rooted in shared values and interests.'

In a final shot at the ex-president, she added: 'Donald Trump clearly doesn't understand that either.'

The message, posted on his Truth Social app, immediately made the rounds on Twitter where it was condemned through the morning. Trump was accused of making a veiled threat against American Jews during a period where extremist violence is already becoming more prevalent.

It comes soon after a famous ally of his, rapper Ye who was previously known as Kanye West, was removed from Instagram and Twitter for a string of anti-Semitic comments.

Jean-Pierre declined to weigh in when asked about Ye's recent bid to buy right-wing social media platform Parler, which is run by the husband of conservative activist Candace Owens, but circled back to criticize the comments that got him kicked off of every other mainstream social media site. 

'As you know, when it comes to these types of purchases, or agreements, I can't speak to that. So that's not something - the actual agreement or interaction, I can't speak to that,' she said.
