 https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2024/07/13/trump-christian-nationalist-violent-rhetoric/

Democrats aren’t opponents, but enemies to be “smited.” Vice President Harris is depicted as Jezebel, the epitome of womanly wickedness who meets a grisly end. Teachers, librarians, drag queens — all perceived as introducing dangerous ideas to children — are condemned to drowning with millstones around their necks, a la Matthew 18:6.

  1. The difference is that these comments are made by the extreme right.
    On the left, it's the moderates that are calling for the destruction of Israel and telling you that you can switch from being a man to a woman with the snap of your fingers.

  2. They have a distorted version of our Torah, but we do or try to get a Torah perspective on all matters, and they sort of imitate us

    1. The Rambam, in a Teshuva, says that we may teach Torah to Christians to set them straight in their Bible and understanding of the Torah but not to Muslims because they are too convoluted to help.
