Pro-Trump 'bubbies' ad nudging Jews on Israel, antisemitism fears serves up backlash

A political ad titled 'Amen' portraying Donald Trump as the safer choice for Jews is facing backlash for perpetuating stereotypes. The ad features three women, described as 'bubbies,' discussing Israel and antisemitism in a deli. It has aired in swing states with large Jewish populations and is part of a $15 million campaign by the Republican Jewish Coalition. Some viewers have vowed to boycott the deli where the ad was filmed, while the owner denies endorsing Trump. Critics point to Trump's associations with antisemites and his transactional relationship with Israel.
