Much has been made about Jewish Republicans and their apparent hesitance for Trump, as well as the aggregate set of Jewish voters. The liberal media has done much to demonize Trump with them, by pointing out a few rogue Twitter trolls, who may or may not be DNC/Crooked Hillary shills.
Here's the truth: Donald J. Trump will prevent a Europe-like scenario of Muslim immigration to the US. That Europe-like scenario is the sheer amount of Jews fleeing the continent because Muslim anti-Semitism has increased with the Islam population, and leftist and formerly center-left parties have courted the Muslim vote with it. Great Britain, Corybyn, and the anti-Semitism scandal is a great example there.
Center-right parties are not immune to this too: see Merkel's "Christian" Democratic Union and its courting of a gazillion Islam refugees.
Also, mass Muslim immigration is horrible for Israel. Why? Because they'd join the US electorate once they got citizenship, if they come, and politicians will pander to anti-Israel constituents and potential constituents. It would obviously start with the Democrat party, but the RINOS would join in as well at some point. The GOP is largely free of anti-Israel types, but there remain a few, namely Ron and Rand Paul, James Baker III, and a few others.
Polls have shown time and again that real Americans support Israel. This country, unlike Europe, which gave the world fascism and communism, never had the kind of pogroms and the Holocaust that Europe had. Under Donald J. Trump, that will continue.
Here’s my take. You already know what liberals will do. It is what they’ve done for the previous 8 years, and what they did during the 8 years of Bill Clinton’s first two terms in office. Only Bill’s third term as president will double down on stupid.
Guess it is a self-answering question.
1) They are realists living in a dangerous part of the world.
2) They “get it”. They know how the world really works and the world will sell Israel down the river again.
3) Most Israelis do Military Service so they understand what warfare is and critically, what self-defense is. This makes them more self-reliant and strong Jews.
Their American cousins are to busy trying to save the whales, save BLM types, save Transgender Poodle rights and Mollusk compensation Rights to notice what is really going on the world.
Their brothers & sisters living in Israel don't have time for BS and are busy trying to survive...that is why they vote Republican and not starry-eyed Democratic.
Ping!

This should be such a commonplace that it needn’t be written.
Unfortunately, it is not.
Trump has about much support for Israel as Obama does the Constitution. Neither political party or it’s candidate’s are true friend or allie to the nation of Israel.
You could NOT be more wrong about Trump. Trump knows who is friend or foe and he does not need a Harvard Law School education to discern. We have been weakened by the powers that we have elected to the point that we cannot 'support' US, let along anyone else.
Keep drinking the kool-aid
I’ve listen to many of his statements on Israel he’ll Isreal’s friend as long as their check cashes in and they pay to play
You’re clearly delusional
S-Jackson I take issue with you pinging me to this thread this was vanity and nothing more in the future ping me only to true issue’s regarding the nation of Israel and it’s security, political, as well as serious issues in the middle east. And not Trumps pandering if you can’t do that then take me off you’re list.
Could you at least be specific in my delusions?... I do know what is required of US to be supportive of other nations. And Trump has had NOT one thing to do with what our elected officials have done to strip US nearly clean bare. We cannot support ourselves these days.. how you translate that to Trump will not support Israel is beyond me. BE SPECIFIC in your accusations. I do NOT accept useless hand waving, you are bad, cause I say so, accusations.
Israel is a very, very important ally of the United States and we are absolutely going to protect them. Donald Trump
