“And we moved the capital of Israel to Jerusalem,” Trump said speaking at a rally held at an airport in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, apparently referring to his decision move the embassy from Tel Aviv. “That’s for the evangelicals.”
“You know, it’s amazing with that, the evangelicals are more excited by that than Jewish people,” he said to cheers from the crowd. “That’s right, it’s incredible.”
Is he wrong? The Jewish right, which is a definite minority in the American Jewish community, supported the move. The Left, on the other hand, either condemned it, worried about it or ignored it. The Evangelicals, on the other hand, 100% loved it and cheered it. He's right - the Evangelicals are more pro-Israle than most American Jews.
