There are still Jewish Republicans. Some of them naively & (in my opinion) selfishly believe they have nothing to fear from the current generation of white supremacists bc Muslims & people of color are the top targets. 1/

They fail to understand that once a society starts “othering” people, no one is safe. 2/ 
Fortunately, many (I hope most) Jews get it. Tommy Robinson is a an anti-Muslim ally of Steve Bannon in the UK. 3/ independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-n…
Similarly, what this misguided (in my opinion) person fails to understand is that even if Bannon is not antisemitic or racist himself, he has allied w/ and normalized people who are to further his anti-immigrant crusade & to try to break up the EU and destroy liberals. 4/
5/ It doesn’t matter what Bannon thinks in his “heart” when he normalizes dangerous people. buzzfeednews.com/article/lester…
6/ Remember “Jews will not replace us”? washingtonpost.com/news/acts-of-f…
7/ Charlottesville occurred 8/12/17. time.com/charlottesvill…
8/ “Nancy Pelosi calls on Trump to fire Steve Bannon after Charlottesville violence” 8/14/17 abcnews.go.com/Politics/pelos…
9/ “Bannon consulted w/ the president repeatedly over the weekend as Mr. Trump struggled to respond to the neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville, Va. In general, Mr. Bannon has cautioned the president not to criticize far-right activists too severely…”8/14/17 nytimes.com/2017/08/14/us/…
10/ “Steve Bannon’s out at the White House, aftermath of white nationalist protests in Charlottesville” 8/18/17 #TheyKnew pbs.org/weta/washingto…
11/ Again, what difference does it make what Bannon or Trump or anyone else feels in their heart when they do this type of thing or have no issue with it? @splcenter

12/ Look how quickly the “Judaeo” part can get tossed aside. Blink of an eye.
