Joe Lieberman: Democratic Party is not anti-Jewish, but some members say anti-Semitic things

Really, Joe? These kinds of statements from prominent Jews are embarrassing and pathetic. Like his fellow Jewish centrist Alan Dershowitz, Joe Lieberman is either dishonest or delusional. Perhaps both. Prominent Jewish Democrats such as Lieberman and Dershowitz have not accepted that the Democrat Party is no longer the same political party that they have supported for decades. Not even close to the same.

No Jewish American with a brain or with dignity should support the Democrat Party in any way. Jewish Americans must no longer allow themselves to be played by the neo-Nazi Democrats. #Jexodus!

“Lieberman: Democratic Party is not anti-Jewish, but some members say anti-Semitic things,” by Rachel Frazin, The Hill, March 17, 2019:

Former Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.), who was once a Democrat, said in an interview broadcast Sunday that the Democratic Party “is not an anti-Jewish party” but that it has members who say anti-Semitic things.

“The Democratic Party is not an anti-Jewish party, but there are some people in the party now, including in Congress as we’ve seen from Congresswoman Omar…who are saying explicitly anti-Semitic things,” Lieberman, who is Jewish, said in an interview with radio host John Catsimatidis on AM 970 in New York.

Lieberman was referring to remarks from Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) in recent weeks that were widely panned by lawmakers from both parties as involving anti-Semitic tropes.

Meanwhile, Democrats have pushed back in recent days on President Trump after he accused the Democratic Party earlier this month of being “anti-Jewish.”

“His comments show the president is only interested in playing the politics of division and not in fighting anti-Semitism. Mr. President, you have redefined chutzpah,” Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said last week.

Lieberman, a centrist who ran for vice president on Al Gore’s Democratic ticket in 2000, weighed in after Trump this week continued promoting a “Jexodus” or push for a “Jewish exodus” from the Democratic Party.
