ADL: Farrakhan praises Trump for refusing Jewish campaign donors

The Anti Defamation League, who chastised Donald Trump for his lack of response after being endorsed by infamous KKK leader David Duke, said on its official website on Tuesday that anti-Semitic Islamic religious leader Louis Farrakhan has thrown his support behind the bombastic presidential hopeful.

Nation of Islam (NOI) leader Farrakhan delivered his statements in support of Donald Trump during his 2016 Saviors’ Day ser­mon on Sunday at the NOI’s Mosque Maryam in Chicago in which he also made anti-Semitic accusations of Jew­ish gov­ern­men­tal control.

"[Donald Trump] is the only mem­ber who has stood in front of [the] Jew­ish com­mu­nity, and said I don’t want your money. Any time a man can say to those who con­trol the pol­i­tics of Amer­ica, ‘I don’t want your money,’ that means you can’t con­trol me. And they can­not afford to give up con­trol of the pres­i­dents of the United States," Farrakhan stated in his sermon. x

Farrakhan later distanced himself from outright support of Trump, saying: “Not that I’m for Mr. Trump, but I like what I’m look­ing at.”

Also in his sermon, Farrakhan blamed the Jewish people, which he refers to as the “Syn­a­gogue of Satan” for provoking 9/11 and the Iraq War. Far­rakhan defended his use of the phrase the “Syn­a­gogue of Satan” by dis­cussing its ori­gins from the Book of Rev­e­la­tions, and said "Satan is a human being with­out human char­ac­ter­is­tics. That’s why the rev­e­la­tor called them beasts in human form. These are peo­ple sit­ting in the Pen­ta­gon, plan­ning the destruc­tion of Mus­lim nations.”

The ADL was always a Dem organization.

Now its run by a former Obama administration official.

The ADL is frequently vilified at the Jerusalem post blog.
Obama is hated inside Israel, and the ADL has become another J Street embarrassment to the Jewish people.

Forget the ADL ever being for a Republican. That would be like the NAACP endorsing Trump. Trump’s black supporters are not plantation blacks, they are people who want jobs not BS.

ADL a big time liberal group

Let's clarify... they're a big time Jewish liberal group.

[mythenjoseph]

David Duke came out on 2-28-2016 stating CLEARLY that he “DID NOT” endorse Trump...it’s Duke himself making the statement...check it out for yourself!...F ___kin people are stupid to believe this old trick...

I call BS.

This is a game, to hurt Trump by praising him - especially for allegedly dissing Jewish donors.

He is part of the opening salvo in the “Trump and Republicans are racist!” campaign of 2016.

As usual, the media will buy it hook, line and sinker, and pass it on as if it is gospel to the uneducated masses. This time, however, the target will be fighting back - so it should be, if nothing else, quite interesting!

Why should the Anti Defecation League care about Fruity Louie’s endorsement? Isn’t their new honcho an 0bama operative?

Farrakhan's statement is worth noting, but not a reflection on Trump. Though I'm sure he'll be asked about it.

Farakhan was actually surprisingly reasonable in an Infowars/Alex Jones interview. He said Trump was right to stop Muslim immigration, because so many of them have a desire to kill people here.
