Joseph,
You are right. Donald Trump is the least anti-Semitic person anyone has ever met. He even said so himself and unlike the uber-left Snopes, Trump never lies.
I am certain that Fred Trump’s arrest at a KKK rally was a coincidence. It’s possible that Martin Luther King also passed by at the same time.
Trump never pandered to the alt-right and immediately condemned David Duke. He simply likes to wait and see all the facts. You will see that Trump never jumps to conclusions, and unlike Barack Obama, waits to get all the facts. This is why the alt-right bemoaned Trump’s comments at the beautifully organized press conference.
Also, what the Fake News failed to report that Trump repealed Obamacare, overhauled the tax code, and invested a trillion dollars in infrastructure and a Mexican wall. At the same time, Trump found the missing money from the Social Security fund which will enable the entitlements to continue without any reform and impending bankruptcy. Finally, his reduction in the trade deficit (with the funding of US manufacturing plants) miraculously reduced the national debt and resulted in a surplus.
Voters already realize that electing a level-headed, non-politician was the right choice. No president in history has accomplished so much in only a few months.
Historians will look back and see that Trump was the real founding father.
Thank you Trump!
Thank you Joseph for bringing all this to our attention!
When white nationalists descended upon the historic Virginia city to protest the removal of a statue of Confederate general Robert E. Lee, their “Unite the Right” rally gathered a veritable who’s who of top neo-Nazis in the United States, including the former Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke and alt-right leading light Richard Spencer, among others.
They immediately went after the Jews. At their Friday night rally at the University of Virginia, the white nationalists brandished torches and chanted anti-Semitic and Nazi slogans, including “blood and soil” (an English rendering of the Nazi “blut und boden”) and “Jews will not replace us” — all crafted to cast Jews as foreign interlopers who need to be expunged. The attendees proudly displayed giant swastikas and wore shirts emblazoned with quotes from Adolf Hitler. One banner read, “Jews are Satan’s children.”
“The truth is,” Duke told a large crowd Saturday, “the American media, and the American political system, and the American Federal Reserve, is dominated by a tiny minority: the Jewish Zionist cause.” Addressing another group, Richard Spencer mocked Charlottesville’s Jewish mayor, Mike Signer. “Little Mayor Signer – ‘See-ner’ – how do you pronounce this little creep’s name?” Spencer asked. The crowd responded by chanting, “Jew, Jew, Jew.” In TV interviews, attendees were not shy about their anti-Semitism.
Denver Post
Jason Kessler – the organizer of the event – graduated from the University of Virginia, and like most Trump suppprters, voted for Barack Obama in 2008 and once attended an Occupy Wall Street rally in Charlottesville. He believed in a conspiracy theory that “Jews escaped Nazi Germany in order to erode Western values”.
“On Memorial Day 1927, brawls erupted in New York led by sympathizers of the Italian fascist movement and the Ku Klux Klan. In the fascist brawl, which took place in the Bronx, two Italian men were killed by anti-fascists. In Queens, 1,000 white-robed Klansmen marched through the Jamaica neighborhood, eventually spurring an all-out brawl in which seven men were arrested.
One of those arrested was Fred Trump of 175-24 Devonshire Rd. in Jamaica.”
— Washington Post
I’m sure the response will be ‘fake news’…
Only Trump speaks the truth.
Joseph,
Its as fictitious as Barack Obama’s relationship with Jeremiah Wright, Bill Ayers and Rashid Khalidi.
The fact is that Fred participated in KKK rallies and there is a picture to prove it.
The fact is that Donald Trump continues to diss the Jews and pander to the alt-right.
Maybe Jared and Ivanka have a ‘heter’ to support an alt-right agenda. Maybe they and you are naive.
If you haven’t regretted your vote for Trump by now (whose presidency is turning out to be just like normal people predicted) them him shooting someone on fifth avenue won’t change it. That is why I called it disheartening.
Joseph,
I hope you don’t have parents or grandparents who survived Hitler. There’s no way to defend your ridiculous attempts to defend a president who continuously panders to the alt-right anti-Semites. This protest was organized and arranged by the KKK and neo-Nazis. Many alt-right extremists declined an invitation to a rally where the people (the entire group): vJews will not replace us”. If a fine person was there then he or she was a counter-protestor or bystander who got mowed down by a ‘nice guy’.
Frum people voted for Trump despite his German heritage, his father’s participation in the KKK and his refusal to condemn David Duke. He joins t Democrats, his lifelong political home, and is Senator Byrd’s replacement in Washington. There’s no place for him in the Republican party or in the American society.
Its sad that the conservative movement – the one that promoted individual liberty and fiscal responsibility – was hijacked by an incompetent and racist clown. It is even more disheartening that Frum people voted for him and are blinded by his populist, uneducated mannerisms.
I agree.
Trump is the only modern US President who speaks the truth. He doesn’t back down despite the naysayers (for example, he has millions of CEOs that are willing to join his councils, but he doesn’t need them).
He knows that the Nazis are good people and wishes that Hitler have a statute. Hitler and the Nazi party should not be considered anti-Semites. After all, not only Jews were killed in the Holocaust and Jews shouldn’t be singled out on Holocaust Remembrance Day.
President Trump also doesn’t think a U.S. president should visit the Warsaw memorial when visiting Poland. After all, if Ivanka was able to take his place at the G-20 Summit, why can’t a first daughter go to the memorial? A president should not be taking sides!
For example, Trump realizes that Yad Vashem is just an amazing place to visit, but he wouldn’t condemn the Nazi perpetrators because he understands that a President has to have all of the facts before making such a statement (except when it involves an Islamic incident, of course).
Trump is the least anti-Semitic, homophobic, racist and sexist person that you’ve ever seen in your entire life. Trump said so himself (and he NEVER lies)!
Trump’s pea-sized brain has no ability to think. The sad part is that most Americans don’t think either (with the excuse that it’s common sense…).
G-d have mercy.
Indeed so.
I never voted Republican because the candidate had an R next to his or her name. I voted for conservative principles. Unfortunately, the Democratic and Republican parties will have a pathological liar who touts a socialist agenda as the nominee.
Some will say that one must vote to choose between the lesser of two evils (Hillary ‘Suha’ Clinton in this case). They would choose between Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, Josef Stalin and Josef Mengele, David Duke and Louis Farrakhan, but I will be able to say that I had no part of my personal destruction.
I will not support someone who wants to stifle American jobs by raising taxes, increasing the minimum wage, dictate corporations or spend in order to print more money (or worse, default on U.S. debt).
I will vote for any third party candidate who draws and contrast and introduces conservative principles to the national stage.

Avi,
He has some very shocking positions and may get a little ‘high’ while carrying the football.
I’m considering Austin Petersen, who is pro-life as well.
Trump!
Firstly, Donald Trump is more liberal than Hillary Clinton on every single issue (discounting anything he said since he decided to con the Republican Party).
Also, Clinton is a pathological liar who knows that she lies and remembers them. Trump is a compulsive liar who actually believes that what he is saying at the moment is the absolute truth. Hillary at least makes her intentions of destroying America and following Europe’s lead known. Trump is nothing but deception.
Trump – until proven otherwise with a psych eval – has the following psychological illnesses and is unfit to preside over a country: Bipolar disorder, sever emotional insecurities, ADHD and the Dunning-Kruger Effect.
Hillary Clinton is a cheater and is good at it. She grew up in a middle-class home and enriched herself by trading cattle, pardoning criminals, campaign contributions and political favors, etc.
Donald Trump, however, is a failed cheater (he was even caught cheating golf!). He inherited $200,000,000 (or in real-real estate terms FORTY BILLION Dollars) from his cheating-mafiosi-daddy and squandered it.
I.M. Shluffin,
See lemmings.
If you like Obama and deBlasio then you’ll love Trump!
He’ll make America the next third-world country.
If you want to vote for a winner then vote for Raul Castro (he’s guaranteed to be the Cuban dictator).
Charlie,
Trump is an religious as is Obama, and that is himself above all and above the One. he would also be a horrible president, as is Obama.
Two people, same idea…
I don’t think Trump is either smart or crazy. He’s a professional con artist and those who vote for him are either dumb or crazy.
Trump ensured that America will never be great again. He ruined the conservative movement forever, which will cement the ‘New Deal’, ‘Great Society’ and ‘Obama Class Warfare’ destruction.

If you hate Israel (or think that they share blame with “Palestine”) vote Trump. He said it last week!
He also said a couple of months ago that, as president, he will force Israel to make concessions to the Palestinians…
If you like Trump; why not Sanders?!
Dinkins vs Giuliani
Let’s see: Those who work in academia and in the public sector will want to vote for Obama, and those who work in the public sector would prefer Romney.
Being that I work in the private sector, I will IY”H cast my vote for Romney.
Whose Derech?
The Derech which forbids an Eishes Ish from having relations (source: Facebook post).
The Derech which declares: “Lo Tiyeh Kdeisha B’Bnos Yisroel.”
The Derech that follows the “Old Testament” in which it is written “Lo Techaten Bom…” (granted, she was only in a three month relationship).
I’m not deciding the custody battle (I don’t know the facts), but what is clear is the fact that she is NOT leading a religious lifestyle (she’s sending the children to religious institution per arbitrated agreement).
We must, however, examine the problems within our community (and this includes all of us: Hasidic, Yeshivish, MO and Sephardic — we all experience it) and acknowledge the reasons for this migration. I, for one, believe that the schools must place a bigger emphasis on Hashkafa and Emunah.
Seems like putting in a request helps. http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/wwwmonseyscoopcom
These were quite big despite the sparse coverage it received from the media.

ICOT, I also miss some of the posters you mentioned. Although I often had heated debates with charliehall, I appreciated his wisdom and astuteness; the Coffee Room just isn’t the same without him. I, for one, am still here, but I hardly participate in discussions since he and some of his liberal friends left (nfgo3). I’m always in the mood for a good debate.
I also miss The Wolf’s humorous take on the issues.
But, I stopped by to say ‘hi’ to all of you, as I am still here and frequent your threads occasionally.
Akuperma,
That is precisely the matter with the current (and by now, final) Republican field — not one candidate is addressing the real problems, and they’re all ducking from offering solutions. Additionally, no candidate has a record of cutting deficits and balancing budgets. ‘Purity’ and negativity scared off those who were going to have an earnest discussion with the American people about the direction of the country. Although it would seem viable for the Republican nominee to choose Marco Rubio, a Cuban-American senator from Florida who is brilliant and eloquent, to ensure victory, it would be better for the country to have Governor Daniels or Rep. Ryan as veep.
Here’s my take on most candidates: http://www.theyeshivaworld.com/coffeeroom/topic/your-dream-ticket-for-2012
For the record: Mitt Romney’s record is far more liberal than Jon Hunsman’s.
Ferd, if you would have had a different name, I would condemn your despicable statement. However, your name seems to suit your talk.
Knowing how the beauty of a song or melody of beautiful composition sung on tune by a wonderful and amazing singer and performer with magnificent harmonies and background vocals accompanied by a philharmonic orchestra and symphonic musical ensemble playing distinct notes of music in sync among numerous pitches of melody with magnificent chords by musicians and vocalists masterfully assembled and conducted by an organized and masterful conductor or music director can captivate, mesmerize and fascinate people in addition to comforting and cheering broken hearts, miserable persons and depressed individuals, the Hebrew Academy for Special Children non-profit organization, otherwise known by its acronym – HASC, arranges an annual live performance and melodic show where a concert hall or entertainment centre ,which is lit to desire and has a tranquilizing setting, is rented for the evening while orthodox-Jewish super-stars in the likes of Mordechai Ben David, Avraham Fried and Lipa Schmeltzer rehearse together with a full instrumental ensemble that contains strings, brass, woodwinds and percussions in addition to a vocal chorus led by a choirmaster in preparation for the evening where they will be starring in a packed music hall filled with thousands of people that wish to participate in the recital so masterfully created to be easy on the ear and pleasant sounding, in addition to supporting the worthy cause of taking special children and unfortunate children to the next level with special education and programs to prepare them for life.
18 to be exact.

Rick Perry and Michelle Bachmann are perhaps the most pro-Israel from the pack.
Rick Perry on Israel
Gov. Rick Perry visited Israel more than any candidate. One of his first acts after being elected agriculture commissioner in 1991 was to create the Texas-Israel Exchange, which promoted information and research sharing.
He told the Jerusalem Post that he wants Texans to “strengthen their support for Israel and keep Israel in their prayers.”
He was also slammed for “abusing his office” to support Israel.
Pac Man,
The Chasam Sofer doesn’t endorse the Minhag. The questioner refers to the Minhag to which the Chasam Sofer replies about the issue of Chatzitza (for a Kallah before the Chupa).
I agree with many of the above posters.
Shaving is merely a Minhag (the Chasam Sofer actually does mention it in his responsa Y”D 195 – citing the reason of ?????) and is a hard undertaking for a woman. However, being that you asked, and it is the Skulener Rebbe whom you asked, I feel that you are compelled to either go back and ask once more or do as you were told. He isn’t just another rebbe… rather a pious, devout and saintly man. He is known to many as a miracle man (literally). “Just throw away your TV…” etc.
bpt,
Can you name one Posek who rules that toes/heels may not be uncovered?
Shok B’Isha Erva is above the ankle according to the most stringent opinions. The Shevet Halevi rules that a woman does not have to wear stockings if her skirt reaches below her ankle.
Th
e best piece of advice I’ve ever received was bad advice; it taught me never to listen to “advisors” ever again…
I also cherish what an economics professor once told me: “Look around and you’ll see that everyone who made it big worked hard, but not everyone who worked hard made it big…”
I think that the question should be revised to:
Why is Israel against the Jews?
Charlie,
What about Bushhaters?!
