Sure sounds that way to me. He's trying to place collective blame for his own failings on American Jews, and is threatening them and Israeli Jews with violence if Americans don't do as he says.
Sounds familiar...

dual loyalty
: loyalty to two separate interests that potentially conflict with each other, leading to a conflict of interest
WHEN IT’S ANTISEMITIC:
Dual loyalty is a bigoted trope used to cast Jews as the “other.” For example, it becomes antisemitic when an American Jew’s connection to Israel is scrutinized to the point of questioning his or her trustworthiness or loyalty to the United States. Dual loyalty accusations also occur on U.S. college campuses when Jewish students are asked to denounce the actions of the Israeli government in order to participate in progressive activities.
By accusing Jews of being disloyal citizens whose true allegiance is to Israel or a hidden Jewish agenda (see Globalist), antisemites sow distrust and spread harmful ideas — like the belief that Jews are a traitorous “fifth column,” meaning they are undermining their country from within. The Soviet Union also peddled propaganda accusing Zionists of being disloyal to the state. The allegation of dual loyalty can also be aimed at non-Jews for what antisemites see as being “excessively loyal to Israel,” a criticism rarely leveled against friends and supporters of other countries.
For centuries, these antisemitic accusations of disloyalty have led to the harassment, marginalization, oppression, and murder of Jewish people.

Trump's words seem to be close to saying that American Jews are obligated to have allegiance to Israel - which is, at best, ironic. Like insisting American Jews espouse the very thing that forms a major "criticism" from antisemites.
