Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-N.Y.) came to President Donald Trump’s defense in a recent interview. The president was facing accusations of anti-Semitism when he suggested Jewish-Americans who vote for Democrats show “either a total lack of knowledge or great disloyalty.”
“The president is being accused of anti-Semitism, which is crazy,” Zeldin said during an appearance on Fox News’ America’s Newsroom on Aug. 22. “He has shown so much love and support for Jews and the U.S.-Israel relationship. He has pursued policies, he has secured victories to strengthen that relationship, that alliance between the United States and Israel.”
