Anti-Trump protesters hurled eggs and insults at supporters of the president including former mayor Rudy Giuliani as they rolled through Manhattan in a convoy on Sunday.
Video posted on Twitter shows a flag-draped pro-Trump caravan identified online as a Jews for Trump demonstration led by Giuliani being bombarded with eggs, including one spot at 59th Street and 5th Avenue with one protester yelling f-g scum at the former Big Apple mayor.
Fk you Rudy, another man is heard screaming.
You f-g coward, go back to f-g Long Island, another man yells.
Giuliani is seen in one clip rolling down the passenger side window of the SUV hes riding in and calls out to a cop Lieutenant.
Im a sergeant, the cop says as he walks over to the vehicle, which pulls away after the two speak briefly with Giuliani seeming to point out vocal demonstrators repeatedly shouting, fk you Rudy, f-g piece of st.

(31,261 posts)The interesting thing is the egg hurlers likely are the type of people that need to have the perfect candidate in order for them to vote. They are narrow bandwidth anarchists that dont care about the broader implications of their actions.

(9,500 posts)In fact, manufacturing controversies seems to be a thing for Rudy these days (along with playing pocket pool). Now Faux News can play the tape and show (supposed) Democrats are being mean to Jewish people.
Doubt anyone with one the antifascist groups or BLM really gives a shit about Rudy.

(2,059 posts)People just walking around NYC with raw eggs in their pockets on the off chance a pro-Trump caravan happens by? Bonus points if there's a Jewish element?
Please

(4,044 posts)Are these really Jews for Trump? I have my doubts about this crowd.
NYC does have a large Jewish population and some are very conservative. Generally speaking they are orthodox and single-issue voters.
The only issue for them is Israel.
Historically, republicans offer blind support for Israel. Democrats offer more nuanced support, and may also think that the Palestinians have a right to be.
