For almost a century, there has been one constant in American politics: Jews vote for Democrats. There are multiple reasons for this fact but, regardless of the reason, the one thing Democrats could rely on was the Jewish vote. However, the Biden administration’s increasingly open hostility to Israel may be changing that pattern. One poll out of New York shows something remarkable: More than 50% of New York’s Jews plan to vote for Donald Trump!
When Eastern European Jews came to America, they were escaping tsarist oppression. For them, the opposite of tsarism was Marxism. This binary viewpoint wasn’t unique to them. In pre-WWII England

#0, the typical DNC Jew isn't woke at all. They're actually quite socially conservative. Voting blue is deep seated coming from an entirely different place.

It's impossible to overestimate my admiration for Menachim Begin - - and his crushing response to Despicable Joe only reinforces that.
As someone who grew up in a Brooklyn neighborhood - - composed equally of first and second generation Jewish and Italian Americans - - and virtually no one else - - I was always puzzled how anyone from either of those groups could vote for demonrats - - but they did. The Italians have been quicker to wake up to their political follies - - and let's hope that the Jews are finally getting there.
Education has not improved Jewish political judgment. Not at all. But the rabid Jew hatred on college campuses hopefully will do it.

At least keep your political donations out of the hands of the evil Democrats.

I grew up in NYC. There really was only one party the democrats. I became an adult and looked around and 50 years ago I saw where NYC was heading. I had quite a few Jewish friends that I kept in touch with and I would remind them of the anti-Semitic democrats such as: Wilson, FDR, LBJ, Byrd, Wallace, Orville Farvus, Bull Conner. All hated blacks and Jews. Yet I still believe the Jewish vote will be 80% for racist Jew hater Biden.

This shouldn't surprise today's Democrat party at all even though they likely feel this voting block was a lock no matter what they did, or what they said.
Now, if only many of them also vote for down ticket Republicans to help get more elected to the House and Senate.

If you vote Democrat you're not a true Jew. You're a "Soros Jew" -- definition -- an anti-Semitic Jew who gives support, money, comfort and cover to the "rabid mob" because "Soros Jews" are too cowardly to fight those who consider Jews nothing more than "useful idiots --" good for a hefty donation, a handshake and photo-op -- then "f--k 'em."

The only good thing that came out of the Oct 7th attack is that it has forced a lot of people to rip off their masks. There is no real way to waffle around that terrible reality and still seem rational. Hamas launched a horrific attack against Israeli civilians. The "Palestinians" in Gaza and elsewhere celebrated it. Hamas is an cancer on humanity. Those supporting Hamas are insisting that cancer be allowed to survive rather than excising it. There is no civilized justification for this.
The Jewish people need to wake up and realize not only who their friends really are, but also who supports such violence and terrorism. The choice is crystal clear, no matter how painful. This is an existential issue. The fact that 47% of Jews cannot SEE this makes me wonder if they are suicidal? Democrats in power will allow and even force hatred of Jews to become more bold and more forceful. NOW is the time to stop it, not when the "Brownshirts" are gathering.

I think Ronald Reagan also got a lot of NY Jewish votes.

Blacks have also historically voted democrat since the 1964 gimme-free-everything act. That demographic is also changing. So far, the biggest surprise is the Teamsters abandonment of the criminal party.

Congratulations #4. Supporting a murdering terrorist like Begin has a certain irony these days. No?
Funny how we forget that the Israeli state was founded by terrorists but then one person's terrorist is another's freedom fighter.

FTA: "Jews for Justice for Palestinians,” an organization whose members enthusiastically support their would-be murderers (here’s a great photo of some of those delusional morons)."
The Muslim girl (from the schmatte on her head) looks really enthusiastic* while helping to display the "Jews in Solidarity" sign. (Pic does not seem to be recent, so maybe blondie and her friend are smiling so widely these days.)
*She looks like she's planning something.

Maybe there is a shift. Republican and Jewish Lee Zeldin received 46% of the Jewish vote when he ran for Governor of New York.

What is the difference between the typical American Jew today and President Donald Trump? Donald Trump has several grandchildren who are being raised Kosher.
Face it --- the majority of the great Hebrew population in the USA are really secular or greatly reformed Jews. They have fallen away from their birthright.
This is why the heritage question on the U.S. census forms allows you to list "Jewish" as both a "religion" and an "ethnic group" that you can identify with. It is the only true religion that is listed in both categories as choices.
The devote Jews side with conservative values, thus are more Republican, while the non-participant who claims to be "Jewish" is usually a big Lib.

OK, apparently a majority of Jews in NYC say they'll vote for Trump. The author says it won't make a difference.
IMO, it's a good start for them to actually wake up and dump their "woke" leftist insanity.
