While addressing a group of ardent Israel supporters, Donald Trump made the decidedly surprising assertion that Israel and its US-based lobbying wing AIPAC do not wield sufficient power over American politics. 15 years ago the lobby was much stronger, Trump said, and any deviation from a staunchly pro-Israel position by an American politician would have ended their career. Today, Trump announced without any sense of comedic intent, Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer sounds like a Palestinian.

 

Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger discuss Trump’s apparent feeling that Israel should hold greater sway over American foreign policy.

 

Plus a segment on commentator Candace Owens’ surprising recent statements about the founding of Israel and an on-the-street interview from a protest near the Chicago DNC with comedian and Daily Show co-creator Lizz Winstead about the state of the abortion debate.
