NEW YORK – Republican Jewish Coalition CEO Matt Brooks and Norm Coleman, its national chairman and a former senator released a statement congratulating President-elect Donald Trump more than 30 minutes before Trump took the stage in Palm Beach, declaring his victory over Democrat Vice President Kamala Harris.
“President Donald Trump’s decisive victory tonight is a victory for American strength, American leadership, American prosperity, and the American dream,” Brooks and Coleman said.
The RJC said Trump’s victory is the “greatest political comeback in US history,” as for four years, the American people “suffered under the failed policies” of US President Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and the Democrats.
“That all changes starting on day one of the Trump administration,” it continued.
“The RJC is gratified to be part of this winning coalition, having played a significant role in support of President Trump’s victory, particularly in the key battleground states,” the RJC said.
Support for Trump
It raised and spent over $15 million in support of President-elect Trump, turning out Jewish voters with an unprecedented paid media campaign and grassroots engagement, deploying thousands of volunteers on the ground in key Jewish communities, according to the RJC.
“As we’ve said from the beginning, the Jewish vote matters, and it played a major role in delivering the presidency for President Trump,” the RJC said. “Jewish voters from coast to coast rejected [Vice President] Kamala Harris and the Democratic party due to their failure to keep the Jewish community safe and for undermining our ally Israel as it continues to fight an existential war against Iran and its terrorist proxies.”
Brooks and Coleman said that now is the time for Americans to come together and fix the many problems facing our country.
“We are excited to work with President Trump and Vice President-elect JD Vance and their administration to usher in a new golden age of peace and prosperity in these United States.”
