US President Donald Trump praised the Jewish community's contribution to American society on Wednesday and reiterated his commitment to Israel's security.

Trump was speaking with Jewish leaders in a conference call ahead of Rosh Hashanah, which begins this weekend.

"We really appreciate you, we love your country also and thank you very much," Trump said, once again referring to the Jewish state as the country that represents US Jews as well.

Trump quickly pivoted to the upcoming election, warning that electing his Democratic challenger Joe Biden would be a big mistake and would ill-serve the Jewish community.

"And I have to say this, whatever you can do in terms of November 3rd is going to be very important because if we don't win, Israel is in big trouble," Trump said, expressing hope that Jewish voters will buck historic trends.

"This is really a time that's very important in the life of Israel and the safety of Israel. And we will do a great job," Trump continued. "If the other side gets in all bets are off. I think it'll be a whole different story. I think it'll be exactly the opposite. ... What really amazes me, and I have to tell you because I saw a poll, that in the last election I got 25% of the Jewish vote. And I said here I have a son-in-law and a daughter who are Jewish, I have beautiful grandchildren that are Jewish," Trump said. "But I'm amazed that it seems to be almost automatically a Democrat vote."

Trump said Jared Kushner, his son-in-law and senior adviser, is "unbelievable for Israel. He's really been a leader for Israel."
