My Jewish family supports Trump.
I'm Jewish and I know literally no other Jews in my family or in my congregation who support Trump. In fact, they are universally horrified by him.

What?! I thought Trump was the most popular candidate among Israelis and he had all those Isralei friends! How can this be?! I guess it's the same way he's got all those black, Hispanic and Muslim friends who love him and that's why he will win all those demographics right?

Cruz is not interested in working with Jews ? He's hoping to pull Trump to the side and get some tips on how to win state primaries.

I think these boycotting rabbis are foolish. It behooves them to listen to what Trump has to say and then make a decision.

Trump's daughter Ivanka converted to Orthodox Judaism, is married to an Orthodox Jewish man, and has Jewish children.

Maybe they have been listening to him, as he first pretended he didn't know who David Duke was (a lie) and then watched as he declined to disavow Duke's support for three days--conveniently waiting until after the Southern primaries--and that helped them come to their decision. And who can blame them after that?

Seems reasonable to me.

You must have missed the part where Trump claimed he didn't know anything about David Duke and the Klan.
