You IMAGINE the hard left hates Israel.

There, fixed it for you.

Perhaps it's time you learn disagreement with a country's policies/actions DOES NOT = hate.

77% Disapprove......wow!

On every separate issue - same goes. Jews like Obama better.

Dang, no wonder Jews have a higher IQ than the rest of the population...
Isn't Trump an Honorary NY Jew? He marched in the Israeli day parade as a grand marshal. He is an industry that is heavily Jewish. in NYC Jews dominate Real estate. 3 out 5 of Trumps adult children married Jews. Jews were not allow to go to Mar a Lago which at one time was Wasp, and Trump allowed Jews to enter the country club. Trump is pro Israel. I don't know how Jews can be upset with him even though he is more attached to Jews than any other living US President. This baffles me. Jews also don't like Bernie Sanders either who is also Jewish. Both Candidates are Jews or heavily attached to Jews, but did not garner any Jewish support. Jews voted with their feet and voted for Hillary. I guess if Bernie or Trump elected, the election of either men will greatly affect the Jewish pocket, while Hillary things will remain the same.

Think hard on that one.

LOL

I think the "NY" is the important part of your statement.

Years ago I heard the Saudis and the Japanese dominated NY Real Estate....

NYC has many populations of Jews from the strictest and most wealthy to the poorest...

Trump loves money - that is why he praised the Asians and Mexicans who bought his condos.

Meantime, one NY Jew (Trumps SIL) may have a tough time coming up....in addition to the various investigations.
"Much of the firm’s woes are related to its 2007 purchased of the massive New York skyscraper at 666 Fifth Avenue. Kushner Companies paid $1.8 billion for the building, which is now outdated, using a $1.2 billion mortgage, $535 million in high-interest, short-term loans, and a $50 million down payment"

The payment is coming due soon....

But, to not get off subject, a discussion of Jews voting against Trump is not about the top 1% - I think most of us can agree that Big Money is a religion in itself and not relevant to the stats of the the total US Jewish (heritage, not religion) population which may be as high as 7+ million. Not even 1% of these (70,000) would be of the "big money" that NYC Real Estate consists of.

The relevant (voting) Jewish population is spread far and wide down both coasts (Florida to Maine and San Diego to Seattle) and even Ohio, PA, and some in the upper midwest.

Hitler never told us (as in, the United States) how Jews think. He didn't care what we or anyone believed about how Jews thought; he didn't tell Jews how to think either. Hitler simply wanted to exterminate them.

Oh, and your reply still doesn't nullify my post as far as your hypocrisy for bringing Hitler into the thread.

LOL.

Enough with the blanket and it must be said ignorant statements already.

Get your facts right and not from some little circle jerk at the yoga center with maybe one or two ethnic secular Jews to represent Jews allover the world.

Conservative Jews and I know a few feel better overall under Trump. As he will not sell Israel to the lowest Muslim bidder as Obama would most certainly have done if given the chance.

Let's not kid ourselves here about a sense of general ease, excluding Trump from the picture, among the Jewish International Community. Truly a fallacy as even the Chief Rabbi in Spain has encouraged Jews there to move to Israel for their own safety. I wonder why ?. Could it be something to do with the rapid spread of Islam in that part of the World.

In essence, Liberals regardless of background are a vulnerable, confused and misguided group of souls right now. Only time and a little taste of Sharia will bring them to their senses.

I was just thinking the same thing. The generalizations keep going.

Generalizations about a group's ability, based on race or ethnicity alone, are never a good thing, IMO.

As to the original post, I don't think it's any smarter to assume that all Jewish people are liberal than to assume that all Christians are conservative. There are other factors that come into play, and all are individuals.
I place basically no faith or value in these supposed IQ scores.

Since the poster brought up IQ scores to further their political position, I figured I'd introduce the IQ map to show its bias.
