I hate to be a jerk, but maybe people think she’s Jewish b/c her last name is “Wolf”?
(I’m Jewish, grew up in a Jewish area, and ended up at this article because I was wondering if she had Jewish ancestry… based on her last name and then her features, yes.) She has physical features (including the curly hair) that look like she has a mixed ethnic background with some African American heritage — I thought maybe she had one Jewish parent. I don’t think it’s inherently a negative statement for one’s brain to notice this, see her name, and make a connection. I wouldn’t conflate people tending to think she’s Jewish with Trump’s blatant racism and misogyny and the attitude of his sympathizers that this represents.
