Re: Trump to sign order to interpret Judaism as a nationality
The point is trying to silence the BDS movement on campuses. Since Trump has labeled all Jews a separate nation, and considers the BDS Movement attacking their nationality, he is planning on silencing BDS now. If campuses do not comply, Trump will pull federal funding.
The tea party conservatives think students should welcome nazis and alt right speakers to campuses, otherwise, they accuse the left as being fascist. In this case, they have labeled criticizing the politics and policies of the Israeli government as being racist towards all Jewish people, and all Jewish people are all now a separate nationality
It seems Trump has been trying to appeal to Jewish voters. But I think this mentality is probably most likely guided by evangelicals, because they have a weird apocalyptic interest in Israel.
Religion and ethnicity are protected classes. Jewish people, religious or ethnic, need not fear discrimination. Israeli is a nationality; so that's covered.
What is the point?
