Donald Trump

Former President Donald Trump is the Republican nominee for a third consecutive U.S. election, after losing his re-election bid in 2020 and being convicted of 34 felonies in May 2024. Trump has won favor among some pro-Israel Jews for his track record on Israel. He has stated that any Jew who votes for Democrats “hates their religion,” drawing allegations of antisemitism from Jewish Democrats.

Laura Loomer, Jewish activist who flew on Trump’s plane, says her ties to antisemites shouldn’t count against her

Watchdogs said Loomer represents a stand-in for a campaign that is mired in extremism.
