Donald Trump: Equally Hates Jews And Muslims
DailyMail.com

Every politician get stumped at least once in their career. President Barack Obama was stumped by a journalist from CNN about an ISIS question. Carly Fiona was stumped at a GOP debate, when asked how would she respond to criticism about republicans not being able to compete with democrats in job creation. Donald Trump just happened to get stumped early in his political career, which exposed his position on the Israel-Palestinian conflict. He does not care much about it because he equally hates Jews and Muslims.

While meeting with roughly 30 reporters from multiple Jewish media outlets and Orthodox Jewish activists last Thursday in his office, Mr. Trump did not answer a question about the West Bank Settlements.

In the middle of the meeting, according to the publication New York Times, a reporter asked Trump how he would refer to what is commonly known as the West Bank Settlements. He failed to quibble an answer to the reporter. Jason Greenblatt, The Chief Legal Officer (CLO) of the Donald Trump Campaign, was there to offer his two cents.

Jason Greenblatt, an observant Jew, quickly came up with an answer. Mr. Greenblatt, told Mr. Trump a generic pro-Israel answer, that he would not describe The West Bank Settlement as being "occupied" and that to not get caught up in "terminology," according to the publication New York Times. However, Mr. Trump never specifically answered the question back to the reporter. Mr. Trump might not be as Pro-Israel as he might claim.

This is not the first press conference where he showed disrespect to a Jewish audience. Mr. Trump blurted out a lot of "offensive" comments, according to the publication Progress, while speaking to the Republican Jewish Coalition in Washington, D.C. last year. He told the audience that he did not need "their money" and because of it, they would " probably not support him," according to the publication Think Progress.

The recent statements by Mr. Trump about Muslims portray his attitude toward Palestinians. Mr. Trump thinks they're all terrorists. Mr. Trump's rhetoric about Muslims are so harsh, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rebuked Mr. Trump's Muslim ban comment.

Is he trying to Make America Great Again by excluding Jews and Muslims?

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2023, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.

Christmas is literally so close. We can almost taste it. But there is just one thing standing between you and the big day: FINALS. It's not the studying, lack of sleep, last minute cram sessions or crappy food intake that is the worst... but the fact that you cannot focus because, well, CHRISTMAS.
