“WHY do Jews IDOLIZE FDR when he sent the ship St. Louis full of Jews BACK to EUROPE!!! Really.....I don’t get it.”

Because the Republicans of the day were largely isolationists or openly supported Hitler.

Not really a mystery.

Isolationism in the years preceding Pearl Harbor was a bipartisan movement. Remember that Democrats had both the White House and historically large majorities in both chambers of Congress during that time frame.

In addition, I challenge you to name me one prominent Republican elected official in that time frame who openly supported Hitler.

I think you are buying into the popular historical myths of that era passed down by Jewish Democrats, which regrettably still influence Jewish political behavior today.

It's worse.
The National Recovery Act banned Kosher Butchering. The Jewish Brothers in the case overturning that fascist act were not named "Shechter" for nothing. The same FASCIST FDR regime, under the antisemitic Secretary of State Breckenridge Long, purposely refused to fill immigration quotas and then vetoed a proposal by Cuba to set up refugee camps in Cuba.

But the Schechter brothers supported FDR in 1936 as the "American" thing to do. Jews lived in cities and assimilated into the welfare grievance culture.

There were isolationists on both sides. Plenty of Jews supported Norman Thomas, who was a member of the America First Committee. And the communists were functional allies of the Nazis from September 1939 until June 1941.
