Former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy’s comments on Alex Soros are being deemed “anti-Semitic” by some leftists, because, well, that’s what they do!

During a segment with Fox News’s Laura Ingraham that is being called out by leftist media, Ramaswamy referred to Soros, the son of George Soros, as a “puppet master” over a picture taken with Democrat Vice Presidential nominee Tim Walz.
“You’ve got Alex Soros meeting with Tim Walz, you have the global establishment, the World Economic Forum types, Oprah, Taylor Swift. You know, these are the billionaires – not that Trump doesn’t have a few billionaires – but most of the billionaires are for Kamala Harris. What do they want to preserve, Vivek, so the viewers out there tonight fully understand what’s at stake?” Ingraham asked her guest.
“So, look, I have no objection to being a billionaire, speaking as somebody who has lived the American dream myself. But what I do have an objection to is the kind of puppeteering that you see now in the Democratic Party. Look at those images of Alex Soros standing next to Tim Walz. Looks like if you squint really closely you can even see the puppet master pulling the strings right there,” Ramaswamy replied.
“And that, I think, is the ultimate irony. The party that will tell the poor in this country that the rich people are screwing you over are indeed the very rich people who are speaking that message to people and deceiving them,” he added.
Mediaite covered the story under the headline: Vivek Ramaswamy Deploys Anti-Semitic Trope Against Jewish Democratic Donor: ‘You Can Even See the Puppet Master Pulling the Strings’ saying Ramaswamy’s comments are inappropriate as Jews have often been disparaged as “puppeteers” and “puppet masters” by those who believe Jews run the world.
However, others believed that this is a “reach” and that the moniker applies to the Soros family for their long history of using money to influence the Democrat Party.
Eeeeeaaaaa. I’m not sure that’s anti-semetic.

FTR, that is what the Soros family is known for. It literally has nothing to do with their Jewish heritage. They’re as Jewish as I am and I’m not.

Not anti-Semitic to accurately call out the Soros family for their scheming and control of the Democrat Party.
