'Silly' DNC protesters don't fit GOP narrative of chaos — and violence: Fox News host

Fox News' Jessica Tarlov hit her fellow panelists on "The Five" with a reality check, as they tried to paint the protests surrounding the Democratic National Convention in Chicago as a sign of instability in the Democratic Party.

Tarlov, one of the network's few Democratic commentators, pointed out that Jewish voters are overwhelmingly not backing former President Donald Trump — an issue that has bothered the former president and led him to repeatedly insult Jewish voters in recent speeches.

"I really enjoyed everyone's comments on this," said Tarlov. "I have a little bit of a different take on it. Seventy percent of American Jews vote for the Democrats, and I believe that that number will be the same come November 5th. I don't think that any of this is going to make a substantial difference. I think that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have firmly stood with Israel. They have given all the arms that Netanyahu has asked for. He has said multiple times that he thanks the administration for it."

Moreover, she added, "If people think that Donald Trump is going to be better for Israel, they have another thing coming. Because guess what? The majority of American Jews, and also Israelis, favor a peaceful two-state solution, and Donald Trump doesn't care about that at all."

Regarding the protests, Tarlov continued, "I think that it really suits Republican's narratives that everything is absolute chaos and falling apart. What I have seen so far ... 10,000 people are out there. 'I heard there were a hundred thousand people out there,' 'I heard it was going to be terribly violent.' I just see a bunch of people marching around with their flags and yelling, appearing generally pretty silly. And they're also unified by everyone who has a grievance. They have LGBTQ+ protesters, people who don't think we have enough reproductive freedoms. So it's a big hodgepodge, and it's meant to distract from the fact that this party, my party, is unified right now."

"Kamala Harris has seen a 26-point bump in enthusiasm since she came in. Gen-Z voters coming home, Latino voters coming home, Black voters coming home," said Tarlov. "If you look at our issues tracker, you saw her cut in substantially to Donald Trump's lead on the economy. He can't win the election if it's just an 8-point differential. On crime, he's only up 5 points, that's within the margin of error. Immigration, also getting smaller, there difference there. And she is increasing on where Biden was on climate change and of course how to handle abortion. So it is not chaos here, no matter what you say."
