GQ correspondent Julia Ioffe in her infinite wisdom took to Twitter after the tragic shooting at the Tree of Life synagogue Saturday to not only blame Trump for the act but to shame her ‘fellow Jews’ for supporting the president in the first place.
Don’t make that face, we didn’t write the tweet.
And a word to my fellow American Jews: This president makes this possible. Here. Where you live. I hope the embassy move over there, where you don’t live was worth it.

SUPER classy, right?
Maybe she missed the reports about the gunman’s social media where he talked about how much he hated Trump because he was a ‘globalist’ and supported the Jews … or maybe regardless of the facts around the monster who killed 11 people and wounded six she was going to push her narrative no matter what.
Maybe both.
Later in the day though, this fairly inconvenient picture of her with known white nationalist Richard Spencer popped up on Twitter:

But Trump.
Wow.
Tell us more about how awful American Jews are who support the president, Julia.
Please note Spencer's caption was "Drinking with the enemy." I was interviewing him for this: https://t.co/o0PG9cW3XT

Please note this changes nothing.
11 innocent people are dead and several others injured. This tweet is beyond vile. A sick, new take on the age old blame the Jews.
The first response is poetic justice. pic.twitter.com/Z7g70ikenE

The fact that 13k cowards liked her tweet is despicable.

Virtue signaling on steroids never seems to end well.
