Yes... he named an individual. An individual with a lot of influence who is a political actor with a particular agenda.This is not remotely evidence that he is thinking of or accusing the Jews in collectivist terms. That's the problem I'm having with quite frankly your conspiracy theory about Trump hating Jews. He clearly hates [b]a
Jew for his activism towards goals contrary to Trump's own goals, but that's not the same as hating Jews for being Jews.[/B]
He used the office of the president to share a Nazi conspiracy theory. One could argue that it does not represent his views, but if it does not, then he should not have shared it. One could argue that he did not know, but it is his responsibility to know, so ignorance is not an excuse.

And you want to pretend any talking point used by the alt-right is property of the alt-right and that anyone else who holds that talking point is therefore part of the alt-right.Soros is a wealthy political activist, conspiracy theories about him are favorable to the alt-right because they are his political adversaries and they hate Jews.
Soros is also a political adversary of Trump's, so there's enough impetus for Trump to be adversarial towards Soros without it having anything to do with some arbitrary animus towards the Jews.
The alt-right has a lot of reason to talk shit about Soros, but that doesn't mean anybody who isn't a part of the alt-right can't also have reason to talk shit about Soros.
This isn't a difficult concept to grasp Adam.
If one does not want to be associated with Nazis, then he should not share Nazi propaganda. It is not a difficult concept to grasp.

Well it's certainly stronger evidence that he isn't antisemetic than "ermagerd he talked shit about a single jew for reasons not necessarily related to his ethnicity! HE'S AN ANTISEMITE"Someone who says "I'm not racist, some of my best friends are black" could potentially be racist. But if all you have to call them racist is "Oh they talked shit about a specific black person they don't like without bringing up their race once" then you are the one who is full of shit who needs to **** off with that noise Adam, not me, you disingenuous hack.
Nazis: Jews, collectively, are funding the ethnic replacement of white people.
Trump: A specific Jew is funding the ethnic replacement of white people.
You: Just because Trump borrowed a Nazi narrative, because their political goals aligned in this instance, does not mean anything.
Get real.
