A Congressman from Southwest Florida is fuming about the ramifications of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris’ selection of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate.
The contention Byron Donalds made Tuesday morning on Fox News: that Harris rejected Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro because he was Jewish and would have lost her votes in a Democratic Party driven by “antisemitism.”
“The reason why Josh Shapiro is not the pick, and don’t believe me, all you’ve got to do is look at the tweet of Jared Moskowitz, Democrat member of the House from Florida, is that the Democrat Party has a massive antisemitism problem,” Donalds claimed.
As reported by “The Hill,” Moskowitz believes Shapiro was being held to a “double and triple standard” to “try and kill his chance at becoming the Vice President.”
Donalds believes Democrats “did not pick Shapiro because it probably would have cost them Michigan and Minnesota,” two states where President Joe Biden got resistance for his position on the ongoing Israeli War with Hamas since the October 2023 terror attacks.
“So Jewish voters in our country need to look at this very, very clearly. They picked another radical left-wing Democrat who will cater to Hamas and will not actually be supportive of Israel, especially when Israel is facing a very real threat right now in the Middle East,” he said.

Donalds is angry that there might be anti-semitism in the Democratic party because he knows it might draw Maga votes away from the Republicans.

Huh?
Grasping at straws and sowing division, and totally off topic. That’s the best he/they can do?

My take as well. He leans into the ‘trump’s not a racist’ thing on the weekend shows then starts making everything about race on Tuesday. What an effing idiot.

Oh I’m shocked that a miserable Trump supporter in the House would play the race card to his adorable audience of devoted Democrats for Byron Donalds!?!?!?
Who exactly is his target audience for this rant?

Either Shapiro or Kelly for VP jeopardizes an elected office held by the two Democrats. Walz Minnesota is safely blue.
You have to shake your head at Donald’s gyrations in the face of intermittent cringe moments induced by DJT — such as the comments made on TV about Kamala’s roots.

On the other hand: It’s not a secret that Shapiro is an outspoken zionist, as is Biden. Kamala may want to move into the center on this important issue, as in, we’re sick of paying for offensive weaponry utilized in areas full of refugees in what is left of Gaza.
Who can forget: “We had to destroy the village, to save it?”

Desperation looks good on no one! Give it up maggots. You are grabbing at straws at this point. Spend your time differently like perhaps take a class or something. Educate yourselves. There is only one direction to go in terms of your knowledge level. UP!
