 The Jewish man in the center of the media’s portrayal of a scolding by President Donald Trump is putting the brakes on the inaccurate spin of what happened.
The liberal press blasted Trump in an endless supply of stories focusing on his response Thursday to a question from Jake Turx from the Brooklyn based Orthodox Jewish weekly, Ami Magazine.
“Sit down,†the president told Turx after he presented part of his question. “I understand the rest of your question.â€
Many media outlets portrayed the exchange negatively, accusing Trump of anti-Semitism.
But Turx came to the president’s defense, saying he has done an “unprecedented amount of outreach†within the Orthodox Jewish community.
“It is very unfair what’s been done to him,†Turx told Fox News’ Ed Henry on Thursday. “So I understand why he’s so defensive. “I’m with him when it comes to being outraged about him being charged with this anti-Semitism.â€
