The political action committee of the Jewish Democratic Council of America, JDCA PAC, in a new low for any political organization, released a despicable ad on Tuesday featuring the Jewish mourner’s Kaddish in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s actions and video statements about COVID-19 after he returned to the White House on Monday. The president had spent three nights at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center being treated for symptoms associated with the coronavirus.
The jarring bizarre ad features a photo of a stone about to be put on top of a grave marker that already consists of stones on top of it, in lieu of flowers and in accordance with Jewish tradition.
Alongside the Kaddish being recited is audio of Trump’s past statements on the pandemic, such as “It is what it is,” as an increasing number of COVID-19 deaths flash across the screen. To date, more than 7.7 million people in the United States have been diagnosed with COVID-19 with nearly 215,000 recorded deaths as a result of the highly infectious disease.
The ad ends with the word “VOTE” at the conclusion of the Kaddish.
