Jewish people in general tend to vote for Democrats (around 70% according to Pew) but there’s a contingent of ultra-orthodox (obviously far right) and retired Jewish people (especially in Florida, a traditional swing state) that are more swing voters but Florida is more red than purple now so they’re less important in presidential elections. So, it’s not a monolithic block. But way more democrats.
Not really about Jews as much as it is about evangelicals wanting to use them to bring on the second coming. With evangelicals they uniformly side with Israeli fascists. This is also about the enormous lobbying power of AIPAC, which from any other nation than Israel would be considered a foreign-aligned agent lobbying firm subverting US elections.
While they (Israel and AIPAC) stand down against Democrats who tow their lines, they absolutely prefer hawkish Republicans to be in charge because they are more aligned to their regional power-grabs as evidenced by Trump’s Israeli policy. I don’t personally understand democrats who kneel for a group who doesn’t prefer them at the end of the day no matter what they do, even support genocide in a few Democrats cases, but nobody has ever accused run of the mill Washington politicians of having shame.
Are Jews likely to be right wing? I don’t know very many, but the ones I know are virulently anti-Trump.
