Former President Donald Trump, in a newly aired interview, told an Israeli journalist that "the Jewish people in the United States either don't like Israel or don't care about Israel."
"There's people in this country that are Jewish no longer love Israel," Trump said in the interview with journalist Barak Ravid.
"I'll tell you, the evangelical Christians love Israel more than the Jews in this country," said Trump, a Republican who won very strong support from white evangelical voters in the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections.
Jews in those elections, in contrast, we much more likely to vote for Democratic nominees Hillary Clinton and President Joe Biden, respectively, polls have shown. Muslims, Buddhists and Hindus also were more apt to vote for Biden than Trump.
