Donald Trump says Israel will be “wiped off the face of the earth” if he loses the election.

The former president was in Washington to address a ‘Fighting Anti-Semitism in America’ evening event in a bid to woo Jewish voters – and sensationally claimed ‘Jewish voters would be to blame’ if he isn’t put back in the White House.
The 78-year-old, who has repeatedly asserted that Jewish people who vote Democrat “hate their religion” and claimed claiming Josh Shapiro was not chosen to be Kamala Harris’ VP pick “because he’s Jewish,” said Israel will be “eradicated” if he doesn’t win in November.
“If we don’t win this election. Israel, in a period of two to three years, will cease to exist. It will be wiped out,” said Trump on Thursday night.
Holding his hands up, he added: “What difference does it make from my stand point.”
The former president continued: “Wiped off the face of the earth. That’s a big statement. That’s a horrible statement to make.”

Trump was joined by Miriam Adelson, a co-owner of the NBA’s Dallas Mavericks and widow of billionaire casino magnate Sheldon Adelson, who founded the Las Vegas Sands casino and was one of the Republican Party’s largest donors.
He also claimed he could run for Prime Minister and win as he’s “the most popular person in Israel,” but admitted he would have to learn the language.
The 78-year-old claimed any Jewish voter choosing Harris “should have their head examined” as he has been “the best friend” they have ever had.
Trump stated: “More than any people on earth, Israel has to defeat Harris. I really believe that. It’s a disaster for Israel.
“We’re going to take back our country, make Israel great again and Israel great again.”

During this election campaign, Trump has repeatedly called out Jewish people who are voting for Harris.
Back in August as a rally in rally at Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, he said: “Any Jewish person who votes for [Harris] or a Democrat has to go out and have their head examined.”
It’s certainly not the first time Trump has caused controversy with similar remarks, having said Jews who vote for Democrats “hate Israel” and hate “their religion” back in March.
Trump has also been making increasingly bizarre claims about God’s ‘higher purpose’ for him – just as he loses his grip on Christian voters.
Trump is now struggling with faith-and-values Christian voters after claiming Florida’s six-week restriction on abortion is ‘too short’ and IVF should be provided for free.
The former president has been trying to appeal to the masses as well as courting Christian voters, but has been accused of ‘flip-flopping’ over his abortion stance.
He keeps repeating the line that he survived an assassination attempt during his campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania because of some sort of divine intervention, despite firefighter Corey Comperatore losing his life.
