Why I can’t vote for Donald Trump: Jewish Journal

Why I can’t vote for Donald Trump

As a well-identified Republican in the Los Angeles Jewish community, for weeks and months on end I have repeatedly been asked the same question by Democratic friends and colleagues, and I usually sense it coming by the person’s shifting body language: “So, would you vote for Donald Trump?” My diplomatic but evasive response came to be, “It depends on who is running against him.” But I never thought it would really come down to that. Now it appears likely.

For me, it’s time to publicly change my previous answer before it’s too late : Yes, I would Dump Trump. If it came down to the choice between Hillary Clinton (another terribly flawed candidate) and him, I would either not vote at all or support a third-party conservative candidate, if that were an option. Sometimes, regrettably, taking the least bad choice is the best option.

Trump’s outrageous statements and behavior are well worn by now: His disparagement of one ethnic group after the other; his making fun of the disabled; his admiration for Vladimir Putin; his belittling of one person after the other, from Sen. John McCain to Fox News’ Megyn Kelly to former governor and presidential candidate Jeb Bush and on and on. Remember his prank of reading Sen. Lindsey Graham’s cellphone number to a crowd? Is this befitting of a president? First he “shlonged” Hillary Clinton, and then he insisted on talking about his own in a nationally televised debate. Mr. Trump: The American presidency isn’t some vulgar reality show.

Trump currently claims to be a Republican, but Republican after Republican are disowning him. His views are certainly not consistently conservative. Using eminent domain for personal interests certainly isn’t. The problem is that no one knows what he consistently believes. His views shift in the wind from day to day or minute to minute. One minute, he would order the military to torture people, the next minute, he wouldn’t. One minute, George W. Bush lied us into war, the next day, he didn’t. How can someone who is so erratic be elected to represent a major political party, let alone be trusted with the codes to unleash the arsenal of the nuclear triad, the meaning of which he was unaware of a short time ago?

As a Jew and the son of a Holocaust survivor, what scares me about Trump is his treatment of people as groups, using negative stereotypes to stir up the emotions of uneducated and disaffected people, and appealing to the worst instincts of people. He disparages minorities before he says he “loves” some of them. For now, it’s Mexicans, Muslims, the Chinese. Jews, after all, are the ultimate minority. During the Diaspora, Jews spread out and shifted from country to country, based on acceptance by the majority in the countries to which they migrated. During World War II, we all know what happened when Jews found the doors shut. While I am not arguing for uncontrolled migration, the demonization of people seeking shelter or a better life is not compatible with our history.

One of Trump’s ex-wives alleges he kept a copy of Hitler’s speeches at his bedside. I have no idea if this is true, but the fact that she thought people would find it credible is disturbing. I haven’t heard that come up in even the bitterest divorces. Trump’s failure to immediately disavow the KKK makes you wonder.

Furthermore, Jews don’t demean women. Woman are revered. Modern synagogues treat the matriarchs as we do the patriarchs, honoring them in daily prayers. Shavuot celebrates Ruth, and Purim, Esther. Jewish adults don’t make fun of a woman’s menses.

On Israel, Trump seems uninformed and naive. Being an even-handed broker between a Democratic ally and Hamas is ridiculous. The fact that he approaches diplomacy as he would a business deal (which for him often ended in bankruptcy) is foolishness. Trump’s defense of his bona fides on Israel is that he once marched in an Israel Day parade. This is reminiscent of the fact that he gets foreign policy advice from watching “the shows.” There is no substance here.

I am writing this from Paris. A friend of mine told me people in the tolerant Republique de France are shocked that so many Americans would be supporting Trump for president. Americans? They have managed to marginalize Marie Le Pen in France amid all the xenophobia but Trump is winning in America? Il n’est pas possible. A few days ago, I was in London with my daughter. A friend of hers who works in the financial district told me that Trump is a hotter topic of conversation among her colleagues than “Brexit” (Great Britain leaving the European Union). “Europe depends on America,” she told me. “Europe is scared.”

Is anybody surprised? To sum up why he is opposed to Trump:

1. He won't unconditionally support Israel's Jewish supremacist ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians
2. He won't put Israel before America
3. He won't destroy the white race(Funny how his 'friend' in Europe is worried about Trump but not worried about the Jews who flood EU with third world migrants)
4. He will overthrow the Jewish American powerful establishment

......

Go Trump!

I'm opposed to Trump -- but I've never heard him support ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. I think you;'re wildly exaggerating his moderated tone on being a peace broker between Israel and the Palestinians.

Actually -- Trump has a better chance than any former US leader to GET a 2 state solution. Assuming that the Palestinians get their shit together and find respectable leadership and rebuild their destroyed govt. He would NEVER get a chance to broker peace with an Israel over all attitude.

I know what you're selling -- but I aint buying that the Donald is a "Zionist Stooge".. Take that crap to your den buddies in skinhead land. Find a candidate who suits you conspiracy theories and leave the rational folks alone..

Trump is an American nationalist who puts the interest of Americans before anything else. That's all we need to know. And that's why Jewish people and the establishment oppose him. Trump seeks to preserve the white heritage of this country. Why does that upset you?

Palestinians are an example to the whole world, what is happening to them at the hands of the Jews will happen to the white people of America when the Jews succeed in making this a minority-majority nation. You hate white people, you hate Palestinians. You believe Jews are entitled to hate all non-Jews but express outrage if they get a taste of their own medicine.

You can be apologetic to them all you want, maybe you're Jewish yourself. But I want you to know you're not scaring me and you don't tell me how I should or shouldn't think, or what I should think of Jewish people. Go to Israel if you want that kind of world. This country is majority white.

 

[Desperado]

just another NeoCon RINO who would rather support Hillary than Trump.
Today even Rubio made a similar statement, No matter what, once Trump is President there will be no more Status Quo

Given violence, Rubio raises doubts that he can support Trump as the GOP nominee

The article is spot on and goes to the heart of it. Even a white minority like a Jewish man, find Trump abhorrent and will not vote for him.

He also notes what all the foreign news agencies are reporting, populations in Europe fear an America with this snake-oil salesman at the head of it. One of the things about being an adult is being able to see the canaries in the mine, when they aren't canaries and you aren't in a mine.

Why I can’t vote for Donald Trump

As a well-identified Republican in the Los Angeles Jewish community, for weeks and months on end I have repeatedly been asked the same question by Democratic friends and colleagues, and I usually sense it coming by the person’s shifting body language: “So, would you vote for Donald Trump?” My diplomatic but evasive response came to be, “It depends on who is running against him.” But I never thought it would really come down to that. Now it appears likely.

For me, it’s time to publicly change my previous answer before it’s too late : Yes, I would Dump Trump. If it came down to the choice between Hillary Clinton (another terribly flawed candidate) and him, I would either not vote at all or support a third-party conservative candidate, if that were an option. Sometimes, regrettably, taking the least bad choice is the best option.

Trump’s outrageous statements and behavior are well worn by now: His disparagement of one ethnic group after the other; his making fun of the disabled; his admiration for Vladimir Putin; his belittling of one person after the other, from Sen. John McCain to Fox News’ Megyn Kelly to former governor and presidential candidate Jeb Bush and on and on. Remember his prank of reading Sen. Lindsey Graham’s cellphone number to a crowd? Is this befitting of a president? First he “shlonged” Hillary Clinton, and then he insisted on talking about his own in a nationally televised debate. Mr. Trump: The American presidency isn’t some vulgar reality show.

Trump currently claims to be a Republican, but Republican after Republican are disowning him. His views are certainly not consistently conservative. Using eminent domain for personal interests certainly isn’t. The problem is that no one knows what he consistently believes. His views shift in the wind from day to day or minute to minute. One minute, he would order the military to torture people, the next minute, he wouldn’t. One minute, George W. Bush lied us into war, the next day, he didn’t. How can someone who is so erratic be elected to represent a major political party, let alone be trusted with the codes to unleash the arsenal of the nuclear triad, the meaning of which he was unaware of a short time ago?

As a Jew and the son of a Holocaust survivor, what scares me about Trump is his treatment of people as groups, using negative stereotypes to stir up the emotions of uneducated and disaffected people, and appealing to the worst instincts of people. He disparages minorities before he says he “loves” some of them. For now, it’s Mexicans, Muslims, the Chinese. Jews, after all, are the ultimate minority. During the Diaspora, Jews spread out and shifted from country to country, based on acceptance by the majority in the countries to which they migrated.

Why I can’t vote for Donald Trump | Opinion

........
........

Is anybody surprised? To sum up why he is opposed to Trump:

1. He won't unconditionally support Israel's Jewish supremacist ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians
2. He won't put Israel before America
3. He won't destroy the white race(Funny how his 'friend' in Europe is worried about Trump but not worried about the Jews who flood EU with third world migrants)
4. He will overthrow the Jewish American powerful establishment

......

Go Trump!

I'm opposed to Trump -- but I've never heard him support ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. I think you;'re wildly exaggerating his moderated tone on being a peace broker between Israel and the Palestinians.

Actually -- Trump has a better chance than any former US leader to GET a 2 state solution. Assuming that the Palestinians get their shit together and find respectable leadership and rebuild their destroyed govt. He would NEVER get a chance to broker peace with an Israel over all attitude.

I know what you're selling -- but I aint buying that the Donald is a "Zionist Stooge".. Take that crap to your den buddies in skinhead land. Find a candidate who suits you conspiracy theories and leave the rational folks alone..

Another Trump hater ....

There's 2 things I already know about you..

You don't have a clue what the Donald would ACTUALLY do as Prez and you're PROJECTING your views on him because you salute arrogance and authority.

and 2)

You really don't GiveaFugue about Palestinians. Or probably Arabs for that matter. You just hate Jews and see them under your bed at night..

Trump is an American nationalist who puts the interest of Americans before anything else. That's all we need to know. And that's why Jewish people and the establishment oppose him. Trump seeks to preserve the white heritage of this country. Why does that upset you?

Palestinians are an example to the whole world, what is happening to them at the hands of the Jews will happen to the white people of America when the Jews succeed in making this a minority-majority nation. You hate white people, you hate Palestinians. You believe Jews are entitled to hate all non-Jews but express outrage if they get a taste of their own medicine.

You can be apologetic to them all you want, maybe you're Jewish yourself. But I want you to know you're not scaring me and you don't tell me how I should or shouldn't think, or what I should think of Jewish people. Go to Israel if you want that kind of world. This country is majority white.

Like I said -- you really don't give a good crap about Palestinians. I ( a raised Jew) care far more about them than you do.. And you're just deluding yourself if you support Trump and believe his REPEATED "I LOVE ISRAEL" and "Israel will have no better friend" are ignorable.

Shows how desperate you haters are to be relevant. You think supporting a front running candidate is somehow gonna make your crappy conspiracies more palatable???

You gotta DENY everything good that Trump says about Jews and Israel to take your position. Which is by estimation right now in rectal defilade.. (look it up baldy)..

So someone writes a common sense editorial about why they can't support the billionaire tyrant, but we should ignore that and vote for Trump because it's just a Jew saying thst.

Is it any wonder his supporters are being called brownshirts and Nazis?

Of course there are also Black Jews and odd as it might seem to some Oriental Jews - uh apologies in advance to people who are offended with term "Oriental"

Why I can’t vote for Donald Trump

As a well-identified Republican in the Los Angeles Jewish community, for weeks and months on end I have repeatedly been asked the same question by Democratic friends and colleagues, and I usually sense it coming by the person’s shifting body language: “So, would you vote for Donald Trump?” My diplomatic but evasive response came to be, “It depends on who is running against him.” But I never thought it would really come down to that. Now it appears likely.

For me, it’s time to publicly change my previous answer before it’s too late : Yes, I would Dump Trump. If it came down to the choice between Hillary Clinton (another terribly flawed candidate) and him, I would either not vote at all or support a third-party conservative candidate, if that were an option. Sometimes, regrettably, taking the least bad choice is the best option.

Trump’s outrageous statements and behavior are well worn by now: His disparagement of one ethnic group after the other; his making fun of the disabled; his admiration for Vladimir Putin; his belittling of one person after the other, from Sen. John McCain to Fox News’ Megyn Kelly to former governor and presidential candidate Jeb Bush and on and on. Remember his prank of reading Sen. Lindsey Graham’s cellphone number to a crowd? Is this befitting of a president? First he “shlonged” Hillary Clinton, and then he insisted on talking about his own in a nationally televised debate. Mr. Trump: The American presidency isn’t some vulgar reality show.

Trump currently claims to be a Republican, but Republican after Republican are disowning him. His views are certainly not consistently conservative. Using eminent domain for personal interests certainly isn’t. The problem is that no one knows what he consistently believes. His views shift in the wind from day to day or minute to minute. One minute, he would order the military to torture people, the next minute, he wouldn’t. One minute, George W. Bush lied us into war, the next day, he didn’t. How can someone who is so erratic be elected to represent a major political party, let alone be trusted with the codes to unleash the arsenal of the nuclear triad, the meaning of which he was unaware of a short time ago?

As a Jew and the son of a Holocaust survivor, what scares me about Trump is his treatment of people as groups, using negative stereotypes to stir up the emotions of uneducated and disaffected people, and appealing to the worst instincts of people. He disparages minorities before he says he “loves” some of them. For now, it’s Mexicans, Muslims, the Chinese. Jews, after all, are the ultimate minority. During the Diaspora, Jews spread out and shifted from country to country, based on acceptance by the majority in the countries to which they migrated. During World War II, we all know what happened when Jews found the doors shut. While I am not arguing for uncontrolled migration, the demonization of people seeking shelter or a better life is not compatible with our history.

One of Trump’s ex-wives alleges he kept a copy of Hitler’s speeches at his bedside. I have no idea if this is true, but the fact that she thought people would find it credible is disturbing.

I'm sure you know more about Trump, and I'm sure your people are comfortable with him. That's why they're threatening civil wars and assassinations. But, let's give you benefit of doubt and claim that he is pro-Jewish hegemony over America. Why are you then bothered by this thread?

It seems like you yourself aren't sure what he stands for and trying to get me to answer that for you. I have firm support for him, because he stands up for America first.

You should be seeking forgiveness from the American people at this point, because we're at a point of no return. The German people gave you a second chance, and you returned to the same old habits. Then the Palestinians welcomed you with open arms, and they regret every minute of it.

There are people called Messianic Jews and they're very caring people, I know this as I have about 20 friends who are Messianic Jews, at the moment half of them are stuck somewhere in the middle of Peru on one of their missions. I'm only telling you this in the hope you might see the forest for the trees.

ALL groups of people contain good and bad, so we can't condemn a whole group of people because of the bad apples, if we did that with EVERY group of peoples on planet, most people would be already condemned.

As a Jew and the son of a Holocaust survivor, what scares me about Trump is his treatment of people as groups, using negative stereotypes to stir up the emotions of uneducated and disaffected people, and appealing to the worst instincts of people. He disparages minorities before he says he “loves” some of them. For now, it’s Mexicans, Muslims, the Chinese. Jews, after all, are the ultimate minority. During the Diaspora, Jews spread out and shifted from country to country, based on acceptance by the majority in the countries to which they migrated. During World War II, we all know what happened when Jews found the doors shut. While I am not arguing for uncontrolled migration, the demonization of people seeking shelter or a better life is not compatible with our history.

One of Trump’s ex-wives alleges he kept a copy of Hitler’s speeches at his bedside. I have no idea if this is true, but the fact that she thought people would find it credible is disturbing. I haven’t heard that come up in even the bitterest divorces. Trump’s failure to immediately disavow the KKK makes you wonder.

Furthermore, Jews don’t demean women. Woman are revered. Modern synagogues treat the matriarchs as we do the patriarchs, honoring them in daily prayers. Shavuot celebrates Ruth, and Purim, Esther. Jewish adults don’t make fun of a woman’s menses.

On Israel, Trump seems uninformed and naive. Being an even-handed broker between a Democratic ally and Hamas is ridiculous. The fact that he approaches diplomacy as he would a business deal (which for him often ended in bankruptcy) is foolishness. Trump’s defense of his bona fides on Israel is that he once marched in an Israel Day parade. This is reminiscent of the fact that he gets foreign policy advice from watching “the shows.” There is no substance here.

I am writing this from Paris. A friend of mine told me people in the tolerant Republique de France are shocked that so many Americans would be supporting Trump for president. Americans? They have managed to marginalize Marie Le Pen in France amid all the xenophobia but Trump is winning in America? Il n’est pas possible. A few days ago, I was in London with my daughter. A friend of hers who works in the financial district told me that Trump is a hotter topic of conversation among her colleagues than “Brexit” (Great Britain leaving the European Union). “Europe depends on America,” she told me. “Europe is scared.”

Is anybody surprised? To sum up why he is opposed to Trump:

1. He won't unconditionally support Israel's Jewish supremacist ethnic cleansing of the Palestinians
2. He won't put Israel before America
3. He won't destroy the white race(Funny how his 'friend' in Europe is worried about Trump but not worried about the Jews who flood EU with third world migrants)
4. He will overthrow the Jewish American powerful establishment

......

Go Trump!

I'm opposed to Trump -- but I've never heard him support ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. I think you;'re wildly exaggerating his moderated tone on being a peace broker between Israel and the Palestinians.

Actually -- Trump has a better chance than any former US leader to GET a 2 state solution. Assuming that the Palestinians get their shit together and find respectable leadership and rebuild their destroyed govt. He would NEVER get a chance to broker peace with an Israel over all attitude.

I know what you're selling -- but I aint buying that the Donald is a "Zionist Stooge".. Take that crap to your den buddies in skinhead land. Find a candidate who suits you conspiracy theories and leave the rational folks alone..

Personally, I ignored this bigoted bucket of raw sewage as soon as I finished his post. Life is too short to waste it on "people" whose major accomplishment in life is a lack of skin pigmentation.

Why I can’t vote for Donald Trump

As a well-identified Republican in the Los Angeles Jewish community, for weeks and months on end I have repeatedly been asked the same question by Democratic friends and colleagues, and I usually sense it coming by the person’s shifting body language: “So, would you vote for Donald Trump?” My diplomatic but evasive response came to be, “It depends on who is running against him.” But I never thought it would really come down to that. Now it appears likely.

For me, it’s time to publicly change my previous answer before it’s too late : Yes, I would Dump Trump. If it came down to the choice between Hillary Clinton (another terribly flawed candidate) and him, I would either not vote at all or support a third-party conservative candidate, if that were an option. Sometimes, regrettably, taking the least bad choice is the best option.

Trump’s outrageous statements and behavior are well worn by now: His disparagement of one ethnic group after the other; his making fun of the disabled; his admiration for Vladimir Putin; his belittling of one person after the other, from Sen. John McCain to Fox News’ Megyn Kelly to former governor and presidential candidate Jeb Bush and on and on. Remember his prank of reading Sen. Lindsey Graham’s cellphone number to a crowd? Is this befitting of a president? First he “shlonged” Hillary Clinton, and then he insisted on talking about his own in a nationally televised debate. Mr. Trump: The American presidency isn’t some vulgar reality show.

Trump currently claims to be a Republican, but Republican after Republican are disowning him. His views are certainly not consistently conservative. Using eminent domain for personal interests certainly isn’t. The problem is that no one knows what he consistently believes. His views shift in the wind from day to day or minute to minute. One minute, he would order the military to torture people, the next minute, he wouldn’t. One minute, George W. Bush lied us into war, the next day, he didn’t. How can someone who is so erratic be elected to represent a major political party, let alone be trusted with the codes to unleash the arsenal of the nuclear triad, the meaning of which he was unaware of a short time ago?
