Why Do Jews Keep Voting for Leftists Who Hate Them?
American Thinker ^ | 6 Jul, 2026 | Elise Cooper

One author thinks she has found the answer.

he Jews and the Left, Batya Ungar-Sargon’s latest book, takes readers through the long history of Jews in American political life, from George Washington’s praise for the Jews to FDR and the Civil Rights movement, concluding with the shock many Americans felt on October 7, when Hamas committed the 21st-century Holocaust that was not universally condemned.

Batya noted, “I wrote the book because the question that I get asked, maybe the most, especially by Christians, conservatives, Republicans, is ‘why do the Jews vote for the Democrats, when the Democrats hate them, and we love them?’”

Although the book ends with the aftermath of October 7, the results of the recent New York and Maine primary elections underscore the book’s relevancy today and are a dramatic postscript. A direct threat to America’s values and ideals is the recently elected Democrat candidates that include Nazis, communists, and antisemites.

Maine Democrat Senate candidate Graham Platner has a chest tattoo of the Totenkopf, the skull-and-crossbones icon adopted by the infamous Nazi SS unit. He retweeted a post that characterized Judaism as a “death cult” and praised the military tactics that Hamas used in 2014 in the horrific execution of five Israeli soldiers.

Batya addresses the Nazi tattoo directly.

The left told people who were not Nazis, “You are Nazis, you are white supremacists. You are evil.” And now they’re lining up behind a guy with an actual Totenkopf tattoo and who knew what it was. And that’s not a deal breaker for them?

In my book, I have this quote that applies: ‘Many in the Democratic Party insist that it is the radical left that has turned on the Jews, not the mainstream of the party. But, few of the Democratic politicians are willing

It seems suicidal, but that is the way it seems to be.

Perhaps if they were smart, they wouldn’t be Jews

Jews are like car salesmen, say(vote) whatever it takes to make the money deal. Or, they are the stupidest people on Earth.

They believe in care for the downtrodden, but they don’t want to pay for it all by themselves. Out of the desire to fulfill that Divine mandate, they seek to force everybody else into paying for that effort. And of course they’re more than willing to step into and direct that cash flow, for a price.

It’s covetousness, but they don’t see it that way.

In building a state powerful enough to control others, they subject everybody to a state they hope to control.

For the same reason that Blacks vote for the Party that fully embraced slavery, created the KKK, and voter suppression on a major scale.

Literally a tale as old as time, The Jewish people have been acting against their own interest ever since they crossed the Red Sea.

It’s the darndest thing that I can’t figure out. The Jews I’ve known are smart, driven, and generally nice. I haven’t discussed politics with any one of them, but I know, to a person, they are liberal. So, Jews support communists who love muslims and hate Jews. Make it make sense.

Bingo.

Human nature in a nutshell. We are all flawed. We are all sinful. We are all our own worst enemies. The Bible tells this story from start to finish. It’s true for everyone, but it often seems that it is more true for the Jews than anyone.

Let’s not forget that the Confederate government was more liberal and inclusive than their Yankee foes.

The Confederacy welcomed a Jew into the cabinet; the United States didn’t catch up for another half century when Republican Oscar Strauss joined the Teddy Roosevelt cabinet.

Virtue signaling. Their hive mind believes it is virtuous to oppose conservatives because they believe the conservatives might do to them what the liberals are actually doing to them.

You have to admit Jews know how to keep the US aid billions rolling in by regurgitating the agitprop that “all the aid money is spent in the US paid to American businesses and creates jobs.”

That is a huge lie.


Reality check

The obedient Congress passed a law in secret to make US tax dollars, and armaments as gifts and grants to Israel. When Israel’s bills came due, no problem......the law passed without a hitch.....in secret.

How does that work out you might ask?

As of January 2026, the US finalized $6.67 billion tax
dollars in US arms for Israel:
<><>new gifts of Apache helicopters,
<><>gifts of armored vehicles,
<><>and US tax-dollar for vehicle power packs

This builds on significant ongoing, long-term US tax dollar military assistance
and “emergency” US tax dollars for killings in Gaza and Lebanon and Israel’s need for its “citizens’ security.”

Key Components of 2026 “US taxpayer gifts” to Israel:
<><>$3.8 billion tax dollars for 30 AH-64E Apache attack helicopters
<><>and related arms equipment.
<><>$1.98 billion US tax dollars for Joint Light Tactical Assault Vehicles (JLTAVs).
<><>$740 million tax dollars for Namer armored personnel carrier power packs.
<><>tax-dollar subsidized utility helicopters
<><>plus unnamed other US tax-subsidized equipment.

The obedient Congress earlier approved over $14 billion in US tax dollars for Israel’s defense, replenishment of weapons systems, and other Israeli “security” needs. A 10-year Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
<><>covers $38 Billion US tax dollars in military aid 2019–2028
<><>$33 Billion tax dollars in weaponry “gifts”
<><>$5 billion tax dollars in missile defense gifts.
<><>including US precision-guided munitions and bunker busters.

BTW, all of these arms to Israel were mfg with tax dollars ..........to protect American families.

Because 90% of Jewish people in America are leftists.
Half the funding for the DNC comes from Jewish people
They got what they voted for.

As a strong, NRA-Zionist-Patriotic-American-Capitalist-Israel supporting Jew I can tell you that unfortunately, a majority of these ignorant and assimilated Jews suffer from a disease called Terminal Liberal Hemorrhoids or “TLH”.

This disease is brought on by a psychological blindness to reality and history, as a Jew. This type of Jew wants to be loved, accepted and as a result go out of their way to please everybody including those that would kill them like the PLO-HAMAS Arabs and their butt-kissers today.
It comes from 2000 years of bad history that leaves these poor little diddums insecure so they over compensate and try to hug every cause, every movement in humanity including save the Grunion fish mating rites instead of standing up for themselves and their people.

If I show extreme tolerance maybe somebody will hug me?

Rubbish! Wake up Jews and smell the bubbling Turkish coffee boiling under your bums.

Because they are socially very liberal and agree with them in that aspect.
