President Trump has at least three Jewish friends. He just asks them all the same questions.
On at least four occasions over the past few months, Trump has pulled out a story where he’s purportedly asking a friend which of his administration’s moves have been bigger for the Jewish people. The friend always gives the same answer — but Trump changes the name of who he’s talking to each time, The Washington Post reports.
“Charlie, let me ask you what’s bigger for the Jewish people,” Trump recalled asking Charles Kushner, the disgraced real estate developer and father of Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, at a Hanukkah event on Wednesday. “Giving the embassy to Jerusalem” and recognizing it as Israel’s capital or supporting Israel’s sovereignty in the disputed Golan Heights. “Neither,” Kushner apparently replied. “The biggest thing of all is what you did by ending the Iran nuclear catastrophe.”
Yet just a few hours earlier, Trump told nearly the same story, this time involving the even shiftier New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft. A few days earlier, it was Republican megadonor Sheldon Adelson who Trump asked about Israeli accomplishments. And back in September, it was a nondescript “people” who told him they loved his withdrawal from the Iran nuclear deal.
