Of course not, He thinks the Pharisees are hypocrites.
"This people honors Me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me." Jesus Christ, Mark 7:6
"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows houses, and for a pretense, make long prayers. Therefore you will receive greater condemnation.
Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves." Jesus Christ, Matthew 23: 14-15
He never once said anything that was supportive of government. When he did talk about government officials it usually in terms of they need forgiveness or that it was questionable where they would spend eternity.
In the Book of Luke, Satan offers Jesus the chance at being a leader of a government. Jesus turns him down and says mortal governments are for Statan to control. This pretty much leads me to believe he was an anarchist.
Besides, it was the government trying to kill him and his family when he was born. And a private businessman that saved his life. He spent his life avoiding the government as they were always trying to arrest him. And it was government that killed him in the end. It is hard to imagine Jesus was a republican or democrat. He was an anarchist.
Your people use stereotypes too much and try to generalize in order to make your own opinions seem more valid.
Grow up.
"Your People"? are you serious? Just read some of the threads on CD.
Everybody advocates for their particular political party but, when it comes to 'them liberals' or 'those republicans', it's about even as far as stereotyping.
Your question is ridiculous, but comes up every month or so here. Can you list a reason why he would be a Democrat either? My knowledge of the bible is limited being an aganostic but since you claim to be more knowledgable on the subject, can you sight some part of the bible who claims government should take care of people?
“Render unto Caesar the things which are Caesar’s, and unto God the things that are God’s” ~ Matthew 22:21
I guess this would cover things like Military, Welfare, Social Security ..
He believed in giving to the poor, and being kind to those less fortunate. These principles are in direct conflict with the hypocritical Right wing Christian Republicans of today.

No, are not! If Government doesn't take all your money with those huge taxes you have more to give to the poor!
