Alan Dershowitz: I told Donald Trump that Jews ‘can’t vote’ for Republicans because ‘they’re terrible’
.
Attorney Alan Dershowitz revealed this week that he advised former President Donald Trump on multiple occasions that American Jews are unlikely to vote for Republicans because of their socially conservative policies.
Trump on Sunday sparked widespread fury after he complained on his Truth Social app that Jews are unappreciative of him and his relationship with Israel. American Jews, he wrote, “have to get their act together before it’s too late.”
According to Dershowitz’s recollection of the conversations that he had with Trump, “the first thing he asked me was, ‘why don’t more Jews vote for me? What more can I do? I’ve been so good for Israel. I’ve been so good to the Jewish people. Why don’t they vote for me?'”

Dershowitz said that Trump posed that question “at least three or four times” and that he has “always given him the same answer, and that is, Jews like me, and you know, he was pointing a finger at me because he knows I didn’t vote for him, I said, ‘Jews like me admire what you did for Israel. We appreciate it. We thank you. You did the right thing. But we can’t vote Republican, ’cause Israel is not the only issue that we deeply care about. We’re Americans.'”
