Democratic strategist Jessica Tarlov claimed Tuesday that former President Donald Trump talked about Jewish people like they were âin boxesâ after a fellow panelist pointed to Trumpâs outreach to black and Hispanic voters in the 2024 campaign.
Vice President Kamala Harris has increased outreach to black men as Trump gains support among the voting bloc. Tarlov grew frustrated after podcast host Rob Smith said that Trump was not running an âidentity-basedâ campaign, prompting her to claim that the former president was using similar tactics with Jewish voters.
âThey donât like him, he has had a historic gender gap,â Tarlov claimed, referring to women voters. âI mean, Republicans typically donât do as well with women, this is beyond anything weâve seen before and â you say he doesnât talk to people like theyâre in boxes, roll the tape of him talking to Jews and how he says itâs going to be your fault if I lose. Creating a dual loyalty issue for us, if you support Israel you canât possibly vote for the Democrats, calling Doug Emhoff a âcrappy Jew?ââ

âIsnât that what Biden did when he said if you donât support me, you ainât black?â MacCallum responded, prompting Tarlov to retort that Biden wasnât on the ticket.
Prior to the exchange over Jewish voters, Smith noted that former President Barack Obamaâs efforts to secure support for Harris among black men appeared to have backfired.
âI donât think the Democrats in any way saw or foresaw the blowback that they were going to get from sending Obama out the basically shame black men for not supporting Harris enough, okay, and thereâs no universe in which, if these poll numbers were holding up, you look earlier it said that 90% of black voters were for Democrats in 2020, now are looking at about 78% to 15%,â Smith told Fox News host Martha MacCallum. âIf these poll numbers are holding up for Kamala Harris the same way that it would hold up for Democrats in the past, thereâs absolutely no way she would be going on a media blitz to target black men three weeks before an election, so thereâs obviously some desperation there.â
Trump has also picked up support from Hispanic voters, largely due to the economy and immigration, during the campaign. Harris receives the support of 56% of likely Hispanic voters compared to 37% who support Trump in a head-to-head match-up, according to a New York Times poll released Sunday.
