American Jews have historically voted for Democrats by large margins—especially Ashkenazi Jews, who make up two-thirds of the U.S. Jewish population. About 70 percent of American Jews are Democrats. Though this tendency began in the early 20th century, it became even more understandable after the Holocaust. After experiencing first hand how right-wing nationalism could result in the murder of millions of their people, many Jews who came to America in the wake of that horrific event couldn't ever imagine voting for a right-wing party, and some have come to associate the Republicans with nationalism and even fascism and Nazism.
But as a Persian Jew, my experience was very different from that of most Ashkenazi Jews.

We didn't want to have to guard our tongue, afraid that if we said the wrong thing our neighbors would rat on us and government officials would put us in prison... or worse.

Apparently the guy doesn’t realize that Nazi stands for national socialist German workers party
Jewish conservative Dennis Prager:
American Jews still think when they go to the polls every year they are voting for Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Even in the suburbs, non religious Jews vote Democrat.
Intermarriage rate of American Jews is something like 70%. A lot of Biden’s gang of Jews have nominally Christian wives and children. Their goal is an Israel in the mold of New York and California. The last thing they want is a more conservative, nationalist America, especially one that espouses the morality of the Jewish Bible that they consciously reject.
The president who bravely saved the Jews of the St. Louis, who he helped escape Nazi Germany.

Secular Jews worship socialism as their new golden calf.
Nazis = Socialists
“After experiencing first hand how right-wing nationalism could result in the murder of millions of their people”
Hitler’s NAZI’s were Leftist Nationalists. They were Socialists
Apparently some people read beyond the first paragraph.
Tell that to Vindman, Sondland, Yavonavitch, Blinken, Nuland, Raskin, Schumer, Nadler, Norm Eisen, Barry Burke. They are doing fine in the DNC.
Nationalism in the US is about individuals freedom
