Trump courts support from Jewish voters: Harris to appear alongside Oprah Winfrey

Former President Donald Trump is wooing Jewish voters today, participating in an event about fighting antisemitism before he addressed the Israeli American Council’s national summit in Washington, D.C.

Vice President Kamala Harris is participating in a discussion hosted by Oprah Winfrey in Detroit. The event has featured livestreamed appearances by Meryl Streep, Chris Rock and other stars, as well as voters joining in person to talk about their experiences with reproductive access, school shootings and other key issues.

Both vice presidential nominees, Republican Sen. JD Vance of Ohio and Democratic Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota, made a rare appearance at the same event today, addressing CEOs at the Business Roundtable’s quarterly meeting in Washington.

One down-ballot race made headlines today after CNN reported that Mark Robinson, the Republican candidate for governor in North Carolina, called himself a “black NAZI,” expressed support for bringing back slavery and made other lewd comments on a pornographic website. Robinson has denied the report and vowed to remain in the race.
