Well it's fairly simple, he implies that love of money is a Jewish trait in the same way that pizza is Italian, if he had said 'Jewish people like money just like everybody else' I'd give him a pass but saying 'Italians = pizza, Germans = beer, Jews = money' is a pretty despicable racist trope, it is racist incidentally to suggest Italians like pizza and Germans like beer but no one is going to kill 6 million Italians because they think Italians like pizza.

If he apologised and clarified that what he meant to say was like everybody else Jewish people like money I could be convinced that it was an ill considered comment, but on face value it is a hideous thing to say
