Kamala Harris Blindsided by New Report, Antisemitism Might Cost Her Election

Kamala Harris has big problems. And for once, we’re not talking about her horrible lack of leadership, radical agenda, or inability to talk. The Democrat is taking over Joe Biden’s bid for the White House. She has to carry all of Joe’s baggage, since she is partly responsible for his failed presidency. Not only that, there is one big mess she is unable to fix.

Harris is trying to win back progressives Biden lost over the last year. She has tried to do this by alienating a major segment of liberal voters. Not to mention millions of Americans who do not agree with the progressive left’s shockingly bigoted stance on a major issue. Harris appears increasingly willing to adopt the left’s stance—and drive a wedge between herself an entire minority group. This has led one Republican to make a big prediction.

From New York Post:
Former President Donald Trump and the rest of the GOP ticket could win a record share of Jewish voters in November, his strategists say — and even some Democratic pols agree.

Growing Jewish support for Republicans is being fueled by the voters’ disgust over rising antisemitism and hard-left Democrats’ hostility toward Israel, said Trump’s camp and some politicians.

“President Trump has a chance to get the largest share of the Jewish vote ever,” Trump campaign pollster John McLaughlin told The Post. “Antisemitism is a real issue.”

Trump Might Win Big Jewish Vote

Donald Trump is making headlines once again, and this time, it’s about more than just another campaign promise. According to his strategists, Trump might be on the verge of setting a historic record in the upcoming election—a record share of Jewish voters. If this prediction holds true, it could be a game-changer for both Trump and the GOP.

Historically, Jewish voters have leaned heavily Democratic, with the party’s candidates typically securing around 70% or more of the Jewish vote. Republicans, on the other hand, have struggled to capture more than 30%. However, Trump’s camp believes this election could break that pattern, with rising antisemitism and growing concerns over the Democratic Party’s stance on Israel driving more Jewish voters toward the GOP.

Antisemitism Weighing Down Democrats

Trump campaign pollster John McLaughlin is optimistic, stating, “President Trump has a chance to get the largest share of the Jewish vote ever.” The key issues fueling this shift are the Democratic Party’s perceived softness on Israel and the increasing influence of its far-left wing, which many Jewish voters view as hostile to their interests.

In battleground states like Pennsylvania, Michigan, Nevada, Arizona, and Georgia, this potential swing could be pivotal. Even a modest increase in Jewish support could tip the scales in Trump’s favor, especially in states where President Biden won by narrow margins in 2020.

Jewish voters have already shown their dissatisfaction with the Democratic Party in recent primaries, helping to unseat anti-Israel representatives like Jamaal Bowman in New York and Cori Bush in Missouri. This growing discontent is something Trump is poised to capitalize on, particularly in regions with large Jewish populations, such as New York’s suburban swing districts.

A Sea Change in America?

Republican leaders, including former Long Island Rep. Lee Zeldin and New York City Councilwoman Inna Vernikov, both of whom are Jewish, have highlighted the shift in Jewish voters’ attitudes. Zeldin pointed out that the Democratic Party’s tolerance for its pro-Hamas faction is pushing Jewish voters away, while Vernikov predicted a significant rightward shift among Jewish voters in the upcoming election.

This shift could have a substantial impact on the Electoral College, as Jewish voters in key districts and states could help swing crucial votes Trump’s way. With the stakes this high, Trump’s record-breaking potential among Jewish voters could very well be the surprise factor that defines the 2024 election.

Key Takeaways:

  • Trump is predicted to capture a record share of the Jewish vote in the 2024 election, potentially breaking long-standing voting patterns.
  • Rising antisemitism and concerns over the Democratic Party’s stance on Israel are driving Jewish voters toward the GOP.
  • A shift in Jewish voter support could be pivotal in battleground states, potentially influencing the outcome of the election.
