You would think that people would wake up and do something about it. But there's just something dense about democratic voters. They just don't get it.

Let me explain it to you.....

they are more afraid of the old republican party (old as 8 years ago and most of it today) than what the democrats dont do for them.

Republican party plays a huge role in why this happens. Hell they attacked President Trump till his numbers with the republican voters got so large it scared them into kind of backing him....about a year or so into his term. Even then a lot of the republicans sided with the democrats with COVID.

No one outside of a diehard republican actually trust the republican party. Some of the people in the above groups show trust in Trump or Hillary would be into her 7th year as president

All these groups may not vote Democrat, but they sure as sin ain't voting Republican.

WKU is exactly right

I think we could make a lot of ground w/ white Catholics.

I have often wondered what elections would be like if there were ballot boxes at all employment sites, and that only the unemployed needed to go down to the local school to vote? I think there is a correlation between the rise of the left and the fact that we still hold elections on a workday, and consequently make the polls crowded at lunch and 5PM. The unemployed and otherwise ne'er-do-wells have all day to vote, and shouldn't be able to obtain a mail in ballots unless they had a genuine physical impediment that necessitated a mail in. Would it not be reasonable to allow those who work to vote at work?

Thats always been a mystery to me because the more devout would seem to have more in common with conservatives (both socially and fiscally) than Democrats---looking at a Ben Shapiro for instance.

Orthodox Jews usually don't vote Dem

I have been to Israel on a couple of occasions. The vast majority of Jews in Israel are not practicing the faith, they are as liberal as the non-practicing Jews here, except that they are constantly aware of the Palestinian and Arab threat. And that's what makes that group different from the same group here.

You will find that whether they are Orthodox, Reformed, or Completed, Jews here which practice their faith are Conservative, and they tend to be great people with which to do business. It is the agnostic or atheist Jews here which are far left progressives and that might change if we rounded them up and sent them to Gaza to work in relief for the Palestinian refugees. Show me a liberal whose life has been threatened and I'll show you at least a future moderate, if not conservative.

Liberal nonsense works fine until they find out they are playing with rattlesnakes when the dabble in social justice.

Quote:Major 'political shift' among Jewish Cornell students as they question ties to progressive groups
One Jewish student said he felt 'betrayed' by the left as he questions his ties to progressivism

ITHACA, NEW YORK – Jewish Cornell University students reported that many of their peers on campus have been questioning their allegiances to left-wing student groups after some came out in defense of a professor who called the Hamas terrorist attack in Southern Israel "exhilarating."

Fox News Digital spoke to "Cornellians" on background and on the record who said they were aware of a political shift among Jewish students. Some of them are questioning their ties with various progressive groups – and some with progressivism as a movement itself.

"A lot of the students that come to Cornell are liberal, and I think this is making a lot of Jews that would consider themselves liberal really question that," a student studying statistics and computer science, who wished to remain anonymous for safety reasons, said. "What they will be doing is silently reflecting and shifting who they would vote for in the future…. They're paying attention to… the Republican primaries to see who supports Israel the most even though that contradicts their previous values."

Anyone, and I mean anyone and I don’t care who you are that would defend this piece of Satanic filth is as guilty as the FOOL who was exhilarated. Rotted fish head trash needs to be taken to the landfill where it belongs.

There are anti-Jews in both parties. That includes some of Trump supporters who voted for him.
There are also anti-Arabs and anti-Muslims in both parties as well. The problem is you just can't hold the whole group on both sides with the same brush.
