Re: “Why is it that it seems like so many Jewish Conservatives are anti-Trump?

In my opinion, Trump is the most passive Republican supporter of Israel since Dwight Eisenhower in the 1950s.

I don't sense any anti-Semitism from Trump.

Instead, I think Trump is borderline Libertarian on USA military issues that do not directly involve the defense of the American homeland.

In other words, Trump does not want the USA to be the world's policeman.

Personally, I do believe the USA needs to be the world's policeman, especially for small, pro-American nations like Israel.

On the other hand, after spending more than $1 trillion and losing thousands of USA soldiers in the Middle East over the last 16 years, I certainly understand why millions of American voters say “No More!”

Meanwhile, Obama and Hillary are not Israel supporters at all. But they ARE leftists.

Is it that being either Leftist OR staunch Israel supporter make one acceptable, but a non-Leftist who is "passive" about Israel is unacceptable?
