Jake Tapper used a segment yesterday on the anti-Semitism of Ilhan Omar to attack Trump.
And Mark Levin was having none of it:
For a more comprehensive “news” story than Tapper’s presentation…CNN might have included the praise Trump has repeatedly received from the government of the Jewish state of Israel, his enormous popularity among Jews in Israel, his decision to recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capital, his movement of the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem, his appointment of an Orthodox Jew as ambassador to Israel, his repeal of the Iran deal, the fact that his daughter is a convert to Judaism, the fact that he has three Jewish grandchildren, the fact that the white supremacist who slaughtered Jews in a Pittsburgh synagogue was a Trump hater, Trump’s definitive statement after the attack about “standing with our Jewish brothers and sisters to defeat anti-Semitism,” and his unequivocal defense of Israel in the UN.
To compare Trump to this anti-Semitic Islamist is a disgraceful piece of Tapper hate-journalism and CNN propaganda. It’s also an excuse for it’s past slobbering in defense of Obama’s anti-Israel policies and refusal to fully expose Omar’s bigotry.
Here’s the clip Levin is referring to:

Levin further tweeted an article from Alan Dershowitz in 2015 entitled “Obama should stop questioning the motivation of the Iran Deal’s critics”, asking if Tapper had ever done a segment on Obama’s comments:

The press always had a way of overlooking everything Obama ever said or the lies that he told. But all that radically changed when Trump became president and now they use every opportunity they have to attack Trump for any and everything.
