Emhoff expressed deep concern over Trump's remarks, describing them as "vile antisemitic things" and emphasizing the need to speak out when such tropes are perpetuated.
During their exchange, Emhoff pointed out the longstanding nature of the blame directed at Jewish people in politics, labeling it "one of the oldest tropes used against Jewish people."
Emhoff affirmed his commitment to living openly and proudly as a Jewish person, stating, "I'm going to continue not to be afraid, not to be intimidated, not to live in fear."
Trump's comments implied that Jewish voter decisions could lead to his electoral downfall, which Emhoff and Psaki condemned as feeding into harmful stereotypes.
