Trump ‘accidentally uses anti-Semitic term'
Donald Trump said he did not know the term 'shylock' is considered anti-Semitic when he used it in a speech in Iowa on Thursday night. Mr Trump told reporters early Friday that he had 'never heard it that way' and did not know the term was considered an offensive stereotype about Jews. The term refers to the villainous Jewish moneylender in Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice, who demands a pound of flesh from a debtor. Mr Trump had used it at his rally in Iowa when talking about his 'big, beautiful bill' that was passed by Congress earlier in the day. 'No death tax, no estate tax, no going to the banks and borrowing some from, in some cases, a fine banker and in some cases shylocks and bad people,' he said. When a reporter later asked about the word's anti-Semitic association and his intent, Mr Trump said: 'No, I've never heard it that way. To me, a shylock is somebody that's a money lender at high rates. I've never heard it that way. You view it differently than me. I've never heard that.' 'Extremely offensive and dangerous' The Anti-Defamation League, which works to combat anti-Semitism, said in a statement that the term 'evokes a centuries-old anti-Semitic trope about Jews and greed that is extremely offensive and dangerous. President Trump's use of the term is very troubling and irresponsible'. Democrat Joe Biden, while vice-president, said in 2014 that he had made a 'poor choice' of words a day after he used the term in remarks to a legal aid group. The Trump administration has cracked down on anti-Semitism, screening for perceived anti-Jewish rhetoric or support for Hamas when granting immigration benefits. Mr Trump's battle with Harvard University has centred on allegations from the White House that the school has tolerated anti-Semitism. It is not the first time Mr Trump has been accused of playing on stereotypes about Jewish people. He told the Republican Jewish Coalition in 2015 that 'you want to control your politicians' and suggested the audience used money to exert control. Before he kicked off his 2024 presidential campaign, Mr Trump drew widespread criticism for dining at his Florida club with a Holocaust-denying white nationalist. 'Words from leaders matter' Last year, Mr Trump made repeated comments accusing Jewish Democrats of disloyalty because of the Democratic leaders' criticisms of Benjamin Netanyahu, prime minister of Israel. Critics said it perpetuated an anti-Semitic trope about Jews having divided loyalties and there being only one right way to be Jewish. The Anti-Defamation League said Mr Trump's use of the word 'underscores how lies and conspiracies about Jews remain deeply entrenched in our country. Words from our leaders matter and we expect more from the president of the United States'.

Trump reveals his pet name for Melania: ‘Isn't it terrible?'
A jubilant President Donald Trump inadvertently revealed his pet name for his wife Melania Trump during a speech to supporters in Iowa on Thursday, hours after Congress finally passed his 'Big, Beautiful Bill.' Delivering a 'Salute to America' address in Des Moines on the eve of July 4, as the United States marks the 249th anniversary of its independence from Britain, Trump leapt from one topic to another and eventually settled on military recruitment. 'I remember saying to our great First Lady...' he began, before stopping to remark: 'I call her 'First Lady,' isn't it terrible?' He continued: 'I'm saying 'Good night, First Lady, my darling,' because it reminds me that I'm president, that's why. I said 'First Lady, it's terrible nobody wants to join our military force…' The president recently held a lavish military parade in Washington, D.C., on June 14, which also happened to be his own 79th birthday, but did not serve in the armed forces himself and has been quoted in the past making derisory remarks about U.S. troops. The first lady has rarely been seen since her husband returned to the White House in January, although she did attend the parade and the eventful reopening of the revamped Kennedy Center last month and, on Thursday, met patients at the Children's National Hospital in Washington. According to The Daily Beast, she told the children: 'It's a very special day. So we will have a big party at the White House… When you feel better, maybe next year, you come over and we'll celebrate together.' She also reportedly bonded with them over a shared appreciation of Taylor Swift and Sabrina Carpenter, breaking with the president on Swift, who said he 'hated' the pop superstar last year after she refused to endorse his candidacy. Speculation about the state of the Trumps' marriage is never far from the headlines and biographer Michael Wolff claimed in May that the couple are effectively 'separated.' 'They clearly do not in any way inhabit a marriage as we define marriage,' Wolff claimed. 'And I think maybe we can more specifically say they live separate lives.' Elsewhere in the president's Iowa speech, he declared that, in addition to Swift, he hates Democrats for opposing his gargantuan tax and spending bill, mocked Iran, suggested farmers could be exempted from his raids on undocmented migrant workers, resumed his attack on New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani and caused offense by using an antisemitic slur.
