Correct, and even among Democrats.

Now the dem party has, as its leaders, two congresswomen who are hated by most Americans.

Pelosi, before this most recent event, was trying to distance the party from "The Squad" as much as possible, as she knows how damaging they have been. Now Trump has forced them to not only abandon that effort, but embrace "The Squad" as the new voice of the dem party.

Talk about a turd in the punchbowl!
You realize that truth is going to swoosh right over nearly all lefties' heads, no? It's comical how easily they all fall into line for their own demise.

Do some research. Most of those Democrat Jewish voters identify as PROGRESSIVES not JEWS. They are secular, progressive Jews. Get a clue.

Au contraire-


Remember Willie Horton? The field was already weak enough without hanging the AOC/Omar boat anchor on them.


Trump has effectively identified that Omar and AOC are the new democrat "brand". As the dem congress voted in support of them (rather than condemning their racist, anti-American statements), the dem party is the party of AOC and Omar.


Let's see how this plays out for you. However, from this point forward, your most visible symbols of the dem part are AOC and Omar, two of the most hated politicians in America.


AOC and Omar are the gifts that keep giving.

Are they Jewish or not?

It’s possible to be Jewish and progressive.

Remember Rev Wright?

Yeah. It doesn’t always work. In fact, it rarely does.

This distraction was a good way to move on from Acosta but it’s not going to last long enough to win an election.

To get a litmus test of the "popularity" of the squad, note that the leftist Oregon governor, who supports similar policies, is facing a recall in a far left state.

Trump may have won the presidency with this move. "The Squad" is VERY unpopular among independents and the dems have just alienated a huge segment of the population. There are not enough illegals in the country to push the dems over the top.

Any savvy politicians would have distanced themselves as far as possible from these nuts. The dems, of course, have done the opposite and are essentially throwing an anchor to the already drowning party. The candidates they have are poor enough without an additional loadstone. Thanks Nancy! Trump has completely outflanked you.................. again.

Thanks Trump!
I wonder if they know that they've been totally outmaneuvered by Trump again

The 2020 election is over, Dims may as well start preparing for 2024.

Most Jews have voted D because most are secular or Reform and their liberalism trumps their Judaism. (Conservative Jews are 50/50 and Orthodox are overwhelmingly Republican.) But the secular/Reform Jews are seeing what's going on in the Democrat Party, and they are re-examining their political loyalties. They might not be willing to vote for the R, but many of them will sit it out or vote for a third party candidate.

Dems are so confident that Jews will vote for them no matter that they are comfortable defending leftist antisemites in Congress. But enough is enough.

Based on what I've heard from family, friends, and neighbors, I could not agree with you more.
