Jewish Voters Nervous About Democrats' Shift to Become the Home of Antisemites

Looking back wistfully at the super-pro-Jewish Democrat President Obama.

Jewish voters furious at Democrats’ defense of Rep. Ilhan Omar say they’re done with the party that has held their support for generations.

"We felt we had a home there," said Mark Schwartz, the Democratic deputy mayor of solidly blue Teaneck, NJ. "And now we feel like we have to check our passports."

Jordan Manor of Manhattan, who calls himself a "gay Jewish Israeli-American," laments, "The party I thought cared about me seems to disregard me when it comes to my Jewish identity."

Mark Dunec, a consultant in Livingston, NJ who ran for Congress as a Democrat in 2014, says, "I'm physically afraid for myself and for my family," adding, "I see my own party contributing to the rise of anti-Semitism in the United States."

The Democrat Party has no permanent allies, only a permanent interest in furthering socialism, gathering whatever mix of client groups is needed to achieve that goal.
