New poll: New York Jews favor Trump over Harris by 10 percent
By: George Rasley (ConservativeHQ)
I have a thought that Israel's president who 'pals' around with this former president as some sort of 'kindred spirit' is purposely finding new ways and means to keep the "hostage crisis" going in Israel ("wag the dog") and Palestine by escalating war on more than several fronts.
Strategically, Crooked Donald cries foul that Jews in America should want an end to the violence (that could already have ended), but it can't end unless this country "aids" Netanyahu by reelecting an old 'hard-case' named Crooked Donald.
Crooked Donald tries to 'captivate' New York Jews with promises (and *kisses*) that he can solve the Jewish problem in the Middle East. . . but the have got to elect him. Then, 'Voila'! Israel's/USA Middle East 'problem' will poof out of existence!
Now what Jewish person in America would not like that?!
It's crooked politics that is getting innocent people killed—actually. All principled people, and Jewish people largely are principled, should care about the quality and quantity of lives being lost in a war that Jews in Israel are protesting should end for security reasons!
I believe this 'deal' between two 'devils' is prepared, cooked, and being served!

Recently, former President Donald Trump joined "One Nation" host Brian Kilmeade on Fox News Channel for an exclusive interview during a day of campaign stops in New York, including a rally on Long Island.
The former president shared during the interview that he believes deep blue New York may be in play come November due to increasing concerns over illegal immigration in the state.
In reviewing the battleground states the former President said, "We also want to win New York. We think we can because of what's happened with the migrant crisis… Everybody's coming into New York, people that, frankly, that just got out of prisons from the Congo and from the Middle East and from lots of other places…".
The former President is right about the tidal wave of illegal aliens destroying the quality of life for native-born New Yorkers, but his rising poll numbers in the Empire State are also attributable to a surprising shift among one of the Democratic Party's most important voting blocs - Jewish Americans.
Our friend Adam Eliyahu Berkowitz, Senior Reporter for Israel365 News. com, recently posted an analysis of a Sienna University poll that showed New York's Jewish voters shifting dramatically in favor of Donald Trump.
As Rabbi Berkowitz pointed out, according to the latest Siena College poll carried out from Sept. 11-16, Jewish New Yorkers prefer Trump over Harris by 54 percent to 44 percent when including third-party candidates. If the election were held today and it was just a two-person race, Trump would beat Harris among Jewish voters in New York by a margin of 54 percent to 46 percent.
This showed a significant increase in recent weeks. In August, Trump led Harris 50 percent to 49 percent among Jewish New York voters, according to Siena College. In June, Democratic nominee Joe Biden led Trump 52 percent to 46 percent.
This is part of an overall trend, reported Berkowitz. In July, only 44 percent of Jewish voters expressed a "favorable" view of Trump compared to 52 percent who had an "unfavorable" view of the Republican candidate. Recent polls show that 52 percent of Jewish voters have a "favorable" view of Trump compared to 48 percent who have an "unfavorable" view.
While other polls have returned results more in line with historical voting patterns, with six weeks left until election day, the campaign for US president is incredibly close. Jews represent a mere 2.4% of the US population, but they have traditionally voted overwhelmingly (70% or more) for the Democratic candidates. Their allegiance in this presidential election is hotly contested.
Trump has an enormously positive record of supporting Israel, whereas the Biden-Harris administration has built up relations with Iran. Harris and Walz have made statements in solidarity with the pro-Hamas protesters, many of whom are openly antisemitic, leading many voters to break with tradition and support Trump.
If the shift in Jewish opinion in the race holds it will likely be attributable to Kamala Harris's open embrace of anti-Semitic elements in the Democratic Party coalition. Increasingly, the Leftwing of the Democratic Party has gone beyond mere criticism of the Jewish State (of the sort that is made against other nations) and adopted the kind of virulent strain of anti-Semitic rhetoric that was once the stock and trade of the Ku Klux Klan, the military arm of the Democratic Party in the late 19th and early 20th century.
Far Left Democrat Members of Congress, such as Reps. Ilhan Omar, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Rashida Tlaib can falsely accuse Israel of being an "apartheid state" and of employing U.S. military aid to target civilians and children — a new spin on an old blood libel — and experience almost no rebuke from their own party.
In contrast to the Democratic Party's open embrace of anti-Semites, the Trump administration provided the federal government with an important new tool. In December 2019, President Trump signed an executive order to expand the interpretation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 to include "discrimination rooted in anti-Semitism." Title VI prohibits racial discrimination—and now anti-Semitism—in institutions that receive federal funding, such as universities. Also important, the Trump executive order adopted the definition of anti-Semitism of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, which shows the overlap between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism.
A Pew Research Center survey released this month found 69% of Jews leaning Democratic, while 29% aligned Republican. However, as NBC News reported, Republicans aren't looking for a massive defection.
Surveys of Jewish voters continue to show President Donald Trump's improving his performance among Jews in 2020, compared with his 2016 race, as evidence of a slow shift that could continue. GOP strategists and Republicans involved in Jewish outreach have expressed confidence that Democratic divisions over Israel will help move a small but potentially significant number of Jewish voters into their camp in battleground states like Pennsylvania, Nevada and Arizona, and now even in Deep Blue New York

- from the article above.
This should not be a surprise, because notwithstanding that the vast percentage of American Jews are intelligent and liberal-minded, and are bound to vote for Democrats, the Medieval backward ultra-Orthodox Jews are mostly located in the New York City area, and the author of the seeded article is one of them. Personally, I despise the ultra-Orthodox, even for personal reasons besides what they are causing to happen in Israel. If you want to see how backward traditional ultra-Orthodox Judaism is, watch the movie A Price Above Rubies starring Rene Zellweger. IMO they are a good example of proving the extreme tolerance exercised by their neighbours. And it would be really funny if I, of all people, would be accused of antisemitism for posting my opinion of them.
I do thank you for clarifying the 'detail' about whom these trumpists voters might be inclusive of being: "Ultra-Orthodox Jews." I have heard of them. Don't see many of them around my 'travels.' Indeed, I think I have only seen such Jews on television. Now for Muslims with Burka's (I do see several of them at any given moment about town). By Burka, I mean the headdress and long gown (black both) but not the "eye-slit" thing.
Also, I don't quite understand what your quote above means. What am I missing or getting 'wrong'?
Their neighbours have to live next to those whose Medieval out-of-sync existence and attitudes towards the non-Orthodox could be considered by some to be discomforting. IMO they would not be good old-fashioned neighbourly to those who don't look like them or be like them.
Okay. Interesting.
