These accusations are pathetic, and a new low in this presidential campaign.

More than this, Ivanka Trump (Trump’s own daughter) is married to a Jewish American businessman and she even converted to Judaism.
Again, the screams of anti-Semitism are pathetic.

Trump’s attack on the current neoliberal consensus and his hostility to free trade have caused the most hysterical and bilious attacks on him from the elite (an elite which, incidentally, is increasingly multicultural and infected with cultural leftist ideas about diversity and PC culture), and virtually the whole establishment media – whether left or right – have become shameless whores for neoliberal globalisation and open borders.
This is a disgusting spectacle. I am also disgusted that so much of the left (including left heterodox economic bloggers) cannot and will not understand the real significance of Trump and attempt some calm and rational analysis of the Trump phenomenon.
