I would think anti-Christian sentiments among Jews is confined to the Orthodox, especially the ultra-Orthodox. Ironically, this is the one segment of the Jewish population that votes for Republicans. Hasidic Jews in Rockland County, NY, a suburban county in the New York City area, have helped to flip the county from blue to red in 2024. Hasidic Jewish districts in Brooklyn massively rejected Mandami for mayor, even more so than the remaining white, mostly Catholic enclaves in Staten Island and southern Brooklyn.

The non-Orthodox Jews have voting patterns that reflect their past history of distrusting the political right, even when they are dealing with strongly pro-Israel dispensationalist Protestants, such as Mike Huckabee. They associate the right wing with the regimes of Tsarist Russia, Nazi Germany, and various authoritarian regimes in pre-World War II Europe, such as in Romania and Hungary. Now in the American context, the limited government, pro-civil liberties, and pro-free market philosophies of conservatism are the antithesis of authoritarian government of the "blood and soil" type you saw in pre-1945 Europe. However, they see anti-Zionist and anti-Semitic spokesman, whether of the pre-Pearl Harbor type like Henry Ford, Fr. Charles Coughlin, and Charles Lindbergh or of the contemporary type like Tucker Carlson, Nick Fuentes, and Candace Owens, as the real spirit of the political right. Just as we tend to lump left of center politicians like Nancy Pelosi or Chuck Schumer with more leftist, essentially communist types like Mayor Mandami and AOC, non-Orthodox Jews, and for that matter the non-Jewish liberal, see conservatives like, Ted Cruz and J.D. Vance as soft core versions of Carlson and Fuentes.

Not in my experience. Leftist Jews, Reform Jews (but I repeat myself) Conservative Jews and of course the Orthodox all dislike Christians.
