@richard_merren @lolgop Republicans and democrats aren't homogenous ideological blocks, and support for Israel isn't necessarily an indicator that a party doesn't have its own antisemite problem. There are plenty of Christians in the Republican party who support Israel because it fits into their end-times prophecies, for example, not because they care about anyone living there. Also, Republican leadership is absolutely taking advantage of all this because it's politically advantageous for them to do so. Not that a bunch of progressives haven't absolutely handed antisemitism to them on a silver platter.
