This is antisemitic.
Trump routinely says Jews are money-oriented, cheap, greedy deal-makers, who have a special responsibility and loyalty to Israel.
Every bit of that is antisemitic and Republicans who ignore this are complicit in this antisemitism.

Trump continues with further antisemitic commentary, saying Jews are going to have to vote for him to protect their money and then, again, uses a racial slur to refer to Elizabeth Warren.
After pushing the same antisemitic statements Hitler used to blame Jews for Germany's problems, paving the way for the Holocaust, Trump floats the idea that he should seriously consider becoming a dictator.
He isn't kidding. This is dangerous.

I'm not being hyperbolic; Hitler used these exact antisemitic tropes to justify murdering Jews.
"Hitler...offered German citizens an enemy to rally around. He...encouraged the belief that Jews grew wealthy through theft from Aryans."

Hitler (& today's Nazis, like David Duke & Richard Spencer) use the same "dual loyalty" trope as Trump.
"It animated the Nazis...when they accused Jews of being traitors & used charges of disloyalty to justify their arrests, persecutions & mass killings."
