Former President Trump's latest inflammatory remarks about Jewish voters have Republicans in Congress again trying to perform a careful balancing act.

Why it matters: It is a dynamic with which GOP lawmakers will have to familiarize themselves if Trump is elected president in November.
Driving the news: Trump said Thursday during an Israeli American Council event on combatting antisemitism, "If I don't win this election — and Jewish people would have a lot to do with that, 60% are voting for the enemy — Israel will cease to exist in two years."

  • He also said that any Jewish voter who supports Vice President Harris "should have their head examined."
  • It's the latest in a series of critical remarks the former president has made towards Jewish voters who support Democrats.
What they're saying: A handful of Republicans, asked about Trump's comments, offered what amounted to light pushback against their party's nominee.

  • "During this difficult time for Israel, we have to remain focused on supporting our democratic ally and combating all forms of antisemitism to protect our Jewish community," said swing-district Rep. Lori Chavez-DeRemer (R-Ore.).
  • Another vulnerable House Republican, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said Trump is "not as smooth as we want," but added that "Jewish voters are supporting him in record numbers."

They have been brainwashed - over decades- into supporting Israel, despite its criminal actions. Trump will give Israel everything it wants. That's why he insults Jews that are not Zionists.
