Donald Trump on Wednesday night falsely smeared Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer as a “proud member of Hamas.”
The Republican presidential nominee made the insulting remark about the top-ranking U.S. Jewish official at a rally in Pennsylvania. It came on the same day that Trump separately sparked an angry backlash for questioning Vice President Kamala Harris’ racial identity.
“Chuck Schumer refused to shake the Israeli prime minister’s hand,” Trump said at the rally Wednesday night in Harrisburg. “Chuck Schumer has become a Palestinian. Yes Can you believe it? He’s become a proud member of Hamas.”
