A Donald Trump supporter was filmed shouting anti-semitic slurs while Trump spoke at a rally in Arizona. As the crowd chanted “U.S.A.” over and over one man shouted “Jew S. A.”
CNN reporter Ashley Killough shared the man’s ranting on Twitter.

The significant thing to note here is that the man chanted the slur directly to the media who were reporting on the event. Could the man have been implying that the Jews control the media? If so, could Donald Trump’s attacks on the media supposedly rigging the election against him have led to such people assuming that its the Jews who are opposing his candidacy?
Donald Trump was making his usual attacks on Hillary Clinton before the man erupted, saying things like, “When the outcome is fixed, when the system is rigged, people lose hope. They stop dreaming. They stop trying.” And, “Hillary Clinton’s corruption is corrosive to the soul of our nation and it must be stopped.”
Killough also shared this statement from one man who witnessed this:

The individual also wore a T shirt which read “Hillary for Prison 2016.” While he ranted he also made odd hand gestures.

Should such behavior on the part of Donald Trump supporters be a cause for concern among American Jews? Yes!
