Tree of Life Rabbi Jeffrey Myers, who initially said Trump was "certainly welcome" to visit, also appeared to break with Trump, saying he would not be meeting him and decrying the rhetoric of public officials, which he said can fan the flames of violence. ... "When you speak words of hate, when you speak ill of the other candidate, any words of hate, Americans listen to you. They get their instructions from you," Myers told CNN's "New Day" on Tuesday. "When you speak words of hate, you say to them, 'This is okay, you can do it as well.'" ... "Tone down the hate. Speak words of love, speak words of decency and of respect. When that message comes loud and clear, Americans will hear that and we can begin to change the tenor of our country," Myers added.
