Doug Amhoff, Harris’ partner, will speak against Trump: “an agent of chaos”

Doug Amhoff the second gentleman of the USA and the spouse of the vice president, Kamala Harris And a Jewish-American, is expected to deliver a speech in the swing state of Pennsylvania a day after the six-year anniversary of the massacre at the “Tree of Life” synagogue in Pittsburgh, where 11 worshipers were murdered in the deadliest anti-Semitic attack in American history.

Amhoff will emphasize the importance of the Jewish voice in the current election system and the danger of re-electing the former president, Donald Trump. He is expected to mention in his speech that Trump systematically uses anti-Semitic motifs in his election campaign and a second term will provide him with the opportunity to gain unlimited power.

Amhoff is expected to say in his speech in Pittsburgh: “There is a fire in this country, we will either pour water on it or add fuel to it,” according to a source in the campaign who spoke to the Jewish-American media outlet “Forward”. This is Amhoff’s most direct and sharpest speech on this subject, when he serves as a key representative of the Harris campaign among the Jewish community in the current election: “Every time chaos and cruelty get a green light, the hatred of the Jews is not late in arriving,” Amhoff will say and call Trump: “an agent of chaos and cruelty “.

Amhoff’s speech will also mention the scandalous statements attributed to Trump, which were quoted by his former chief of staff John Kellyaccording to which: “Hitler did some good things”, as well as Trump’s tendency to blame the democratic Jewish community and insult them, Trump has already said several times in the past that Jews who do not vote for him: “should have their heads examined”.

Amhoff will also tell about his personal connection to Judaism and Harris’s deep ties with the Jewish community: “I know her soul,” Amhoff will testify about his wife: “She feels what you and I and Jews all over America feel today.”

Last week, at a rally in Pennsylvania, Amhoff sharply criticized the support of Jews for Trump and pointed out that Trump used anti-Semitic motifs and met in 2022 with a Holocaust denier Nick Fuentes: “He encourages anti-Semitism wherever he goes,” said Amhoff: “He doesn’t care about us.”
