Trump's Alleged Conversion to Judaism

Here's the one that really is weird.

Donald Trump converted

to Judaism two years ago according to White House

official.

Uh, there it is. That's his blog.

He said, "President Donald Trump converted to

Judaism two years ago

and joined Chabad Lubavitch Synagogue in New York City, according to

a high-level White House official."

Mr. Goldberg says, "The story has allegedly been held by

CNN's editors for months,

but is due to be released within the next few days.

David Elias Goldberg, a fellow at the Jewish Center of

Antisemitic

Study, has also interviewed the White House

source.

According to the source, Trump was pushed by his daughter,

Ivanka, and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, to join the faith.

At first, Trump resisted, stating it would threaten his base of

Evangelical Christian voters.

However, he had a change of heart and officially converted in

early 2017. The ceremony was held in

private and closely guarded for nearly two

years.

It appears the White House is prepared to slowly release this

information, and by summer, it is expected Trump will

fully address his new faith in an evening

televised news conference."

Doc, this is so far out.

I, this is so far out that I don't, I don't even ...

I c- I can't rule out that it's, it's ...

Because,

um,

he is clearly the most

pro-Israel president in the history of

America. He's given Israel every single

thing that they've wanted.

Mm-hmm.

And he's about to give them war with Iran.

And so has he converted?

Well, I would-

I've asked that question about

John Hagee, and I'm very serious about it.

If I had John Hagee here, I would ask John Hagee,

"Have you converted

to Judaism?" And I guess we'll find out when John Hagee dies,

and we'll see if he gets a Christian burial or a Jewish

burial. I think that's when we'll find out.

But I s- I, I'm very ... I have no idea. I can't ...

I'm not, like I'm not saying that John Hagee, that I know for

certain, has converted. I'm just saying

his behavior and his speech

is not Christian anymore.

Right.

It's Jewish, and I have to wonder if John Hagee secretly

converted to Judaism.

But when it comes back to President Trump here, um, we have to really

do a comparison here. Um, if, you know, a- and

he's celebrated among the Evangelical Right, but l- let's be

honest. What has he delivered for the Religious

Right?
